  When we got our ’sample’ bottle of 42 Below here in the office, we thought it’d be a good idea to put some of this whopping tons of snow to good use! What are you gonna do with yours?

  Posted by Mark Schoneveld on May 29th, 2009. Categories: fun, poptent, resources | 1 Comment »

  We’ve always been big fans of the awesome how-to show Indy Mogul. Now, we can add to our videomaking knowledge with a newly launched Revision 3 show Film Riot that has a similar fascination with cheap FX, cool cuts and small budgets. Here’s the first episode of Film Riot where they explain how to make a light saber and more!

• Epic Fu Talks the Art of a Web Show

  
  Posted by Mark Schoneveld on December 18th, 2008. Categories: fun, poptent, resources, video | 3 Comments »

  One of our favorite video series on the web here at Poptent is Epic Fu. The Epic Fu team is fired up about all things web, video, music and art and they definitely stay on the cutting edge of what’s hot. In their latest episode, host Zadi Diaz spends the first half of the show talking about how to build a web show including gear tips and web tools. I thought this would be helpful to a lot of you Poptenters out there, so check this one out, and be sure to subscribe because they’ve got amazing stuff coming out every week.

  We’re excited about the blossoming trends in consumer-generated advertising (after all, that’s why we’re here, workin’ hard for you guys!), so it’s great to see Conan O’Brian throwing his own video contest. Well, okay, he’s lampooning it, but hey, it could happen!

  [Thanks, NewTeeVee]
