The Next Big Thing in TV: How OTT like Roku, Apple TV, & Smart TVs Are Game Changers

/in , , , , , , , /by

The video landscape is ever changing. From user-generated content like on TikTok and Instagram to the high-end streamers like Netflix, Amazon, and HBO, just to name a few, there are more and more kinds of video.

OTT or over-the-top TV is often overlooked despite the fact that it offers amazing opportunities for producers of quality programs.

In this episode of Video Mojo, Jon Leland speaks with OTT innovator, Jonathon Barbato co-CEO of Best Ever Channels – http://besteverchannels.com – and they provide a valuable roadmap for what it takes to take advantage of these important new distribution channels.

Video Mojo welcomes your questions and comments in real time during Video Mojo LIVE! which streams on Fridays at 10am PT / 1pm ET on our YouTube channel: ​http://www.youtube.com/jonleland and via our Facebook Page: http://www.facebook.com/combridges.fb/live​.

How to Create the Ultimate Content Marketing Mix of Live Streaming, Social Media Video Series, & Podcast

/in , , , , , , , , , /by

When I started my video blog, I didn’t know I would be inventing a combination of live streaming event, social media video series, and podcast that I now call a WebShow™. In this special edition of Video Mojo that I call “The WebShow-WebShow,” I pull back the curtain of what it takes to create what I believe is the ultimate form of content marketing, especially if you leverage the content assets that are created along the way.

I detail “what is a WebShow?” and I also describe the specific software and hardware that I use to produce it. I also include a section on “Program Development” that covers the creative considerations necessary to produce a good show. Please click the video below to watch now.

How to Tell Difficult Stories that NEED to Be Told Using Vulnerability, Storytelling, & Engagement

/in , , , , , /by

It has been said that “what’s in the way is the way.” For this reason, telling your most difficult and vulnerable stories can have healing and engaging effects beyond anything you might imagine.

In this episode of Video Mojo, I got to interview master coach & author, Andrea J. Lee and we had an intimate conversation about authenticity and vulnerability, including real life examples of what can happen when you tell the stories that NEED to be told. One example of this phenomenon is a 2-minute video that Andrea did for UpWorthy that got over 2 million views… without trying!

If you are interested in going deeper with your storytelling in order to make a more human connection with your audiences, don’t miss this.

In addition this “Collaborative Conversation,” every Video Mojo episode includes a quick commentary called “Tee It Up” and “Luscious Links” resource recommendations, as shown below.

Video Mojo welcomes your questions and comments in real time during Video Mojo LIVE! which streams every Friday at 10am PT / 1pm ET on our YouTube channel:

/in , , , , , , , , , /by

Video Mojo continues as an exciting playful exploration of the bleeding edge of video. Our mission is to help you create a more engaging social media presence and to be your source for insights about how to create a more vibrant video presence.

If you want to know more about what I’m up to, last week’s episode was the transition from Video Mojo, the video blog, to Video Mojo LIVE, the webcast show (stay tuned and I will reveal the whole format). And, we will continue to offer edited versions including a podcast version for your listening convenience (links below). 😉

​This episode shows both a powerful set of new tools for live video streaming and provides a taste of how Video Mojo is evolving into a weekly LIVE webcast (every Friday at 10am PT) and podcast (iTunes, Spotify, etc.) that will be packed with valuable collaborative conversations, luscious links (various kinds of resource recommendations), and opportunities for you to “ask me anything” via the interactive technologies that we are now using.

​Please watch this video to see how we are engaging via live streaming and you are invited to join us any Friday at 10am PT on our YouTube​ Channel (subscribe), the ComBridges Facebook page (like), or my personal Facebook profile (follow).
