My sex change confession
[Transcript] As you can see I've had something of a makeover this week. Alright then a complete sex change. It's thanks to Sitepal, whose service allows me to get an animated character to do the work of my videoblog for me. I can change how I look, how I sound. I can even translate myself into languages I don't speak. Such as Japanese.
Or I can use my own voice, while taking on the guise of various current and former US presidents.
Thanks Bill. And by the way, I did not have sexual relations with that woman.
Sitepal services start at around a fiver a month. Which might even put it within in reach of the odd blogger. And most of them are odd, let's face it.
Right, not much time this week so just a couple of clips to show you. First is a recent winner from the National Press Photographer’s Association in the US, by Everett McEwan from KWGN-TV in Denver. The guys at Multimedia Shooter consider it their new benchmark for quality news video, and it's a superb example of great narrative editing.
It's just 2 minutes long, so do check out the full version to see whether there's a happy ending.
This week’s featured multimedia journalism project comes from News.com web site in Australia. It's called Culture in Crisis and is an impressive, detailed look, using audio slides, text and video, at how aboriginal people have been treated in the country and what the future holds for them.
Finally a warning from our health and safety department. Mobile technology can be an alluring concept, but you can take things too far. Unless you want to film a multiple pile up with yourself as the star, don't try this at home.
