Publishing Spotted: Masterful Music, Video Visionaries, and Shoot Smart

Under My Roof (Soft Skull ShortLit)If your book had a soundtrack, what would it be?

Put your answers in the comments section. If you need some inspiration, check out Largehearted Boy's interview with Nick Mamatas. One of my favorite music bloggers connects with one of my favorite novelists. Check it out... 

Last night the Boing Boing blog introduced me to the deadpan web videos of Tim & Eric. These guys are building cheesy, fake lo-fi video ads for one of the world's most over-advertised films, unwittingly creating dystopian dispatches from a corporate-owned video blogosphere of the very near future. Check out Shrek Mobil to see the mix of bewildered and overjoyed YouTubers commenting on the strange films. 

Over at News Videographer, read this great essay about how fledgling video journalists can keep up with the manic pace of the blogosphere without sacrificing journalistic integrity. Like they say, edit before you press record. God bless Journerdism for the link. 

Publishing Spotted collects the best of what's around on writing blogs on any given day. Feel free to send tips and suggestions to your fearless editor: jason [at] thepublishingspot.com.

Thanks for the link! I'm not 100 percent sure the advice will help people "manic pace of the blogosphere." I myself have not quite mastered that skill. :-)

Thanks for stopping by, Angela. I enjoyed your site, and those editing tips will at least help ease the time burdens of shooting and editing video.
