As every online video creator knows, it ain't easy getting people to pay attention to your work. Sometimes, you have to go to extreme measures to get people to notice you. For example, new Daily Reel member Mark Berry recently took to the streets of Indianapolis to do a little offline promoting of his online activity. The results are this great video...

Hi. I'm a screenwriter whose latest script now has an A-list director (John McTiernan -- "Die Hard" series, "Predator") attached. I'm now looking for a new agent, homes for my various spec scripts and my next writing assignment.

Regards,

After months and months of hard work, our engineering and design teams have finally launched Zannel 2.0 on August 22nd, 2007. The new and improve makeover of the site now has a new fresh and slick look to give users a better experience using Zannel. Zannel new look is not the only thing that have been changed to the site. With the new look, it came with the text conversions support where threads can be started about the videos and pictures on Zannel.

Equipped with tools such as send to friend(s) email or mobile phones and the embed players on the web are by far the easiest way to share videos and pictures.

Zannel are currently working with companies such as Warner Bros, My Damn Channel, Ripe Tv, The Daily Reel and more to get their videos onto the mobile world and featuring them on the homepage.

Check out www.zannel.com and let me know what you think about it. I would love to hear the inputs about Zannel.

Ok, here's the deal. You've come up with a "brilliant" concept for a new web series and you're getting ready to roll it out, but you want to give people a little taste of what they can expect and start to build the "buzz" for your new creation. Time to release a teaser clip. There's a lot of ways to do this, but one of our favorite recent teasers is this one which came out today for comedian Bert Kreischer's upcoming series "White Gorilla." Can't say I'm sure what it's going to be, but I can say this teaser is funny and definitely arouses some curiosity - among other things.
