Use Video
Podcast
To
Deliver Your Message
Many
see a video podcast as a great way to send video
messages to
friends and family...no matter where they are. You can setup
a
podcast to receive mobile video messages anywhere.
Video
Podcasting is also known as vodcast or vidcast. In simple
terms, it is the method of
delivering video clips online, and is sometimes thought of as
video on demand.
The term POD is the term used for Portable. A
podcast is transmitted on internet through RSS or Atom form.
The RSS form is used to attach the video on the internet along with its
URL.
Basically the podcast is merely the hyperlink to the video
clip. The data is not posted completely in the attachment. Instead,
only the hyperlink to that data is provided.
How
Video Podcasting work
- Some entertainment companies provide
a video service which can be subscribed to by PC users.
- And these users would then receive podcasts at
specified times.
- From there, it is distributed to
various users as stream or file.
- The video can be viewed without
downloading it.
- If the video clip is sent in file form, it
must be downloaded. Thus, you can
watch the video at any time, without an internet connection.
When
you subscribe to RSS feed, the updated news, videos and other streaming
media is
directly sent to you. In this case, you would not have to
search through hundreds
of sites to see what the updated news or videos are.
Make
your own Video Podcast
- Though several websites offer the podcasting
video service, you can make your own video streaming podcast.
- You will need some
equipment for this.
- First, you will need a recorder. This can be a
digital video camera. The video recorded on the camera is edited by
special software.
- Install the
software on your PC.
- Sign-up for web hosting website to
publish your video.
- Record the video clip from the
digital video camera.
Many mobile phones also have the video recorder
installed. The mobile phones, however, possess low resolution and may
not deliver sharp picture.
Some of the high end mobiles have the facility
like “Movie Maker”.
The recorded video is transferred to the
PC through a data cord,
via USB.
A card reader can also be used to transfer the video for
digital camera to PC.
The video is edited with the editor software.
The
software converts the video in the form that can be recognized by
computer. Generally, the videos are converted into .mov or
.m4v video extension.
Now
the well edited video is ready to be fed on the video hosting service
website.
The website will provide you with a video blog
and podcast section. The
website displays your video on the internet. Other viewers can now view
the video.
