    Just think of all the cameras in the UK watching everything all the time everywhere. We are pikers compared to that paradise. People here don’t know what big brother is compared to England. And yet, not a peep is heard objecting to the lenticular intrusion. But, try that over here and the usual suspects will be blaming the usual targets for shredding the Constitution. Oh, well.

    I’ve never been on a subway, and watching Joanne in this clip gives me the idea that this would be a great place just to people watch. New York in general would be it seems to a person like me, who does that here just for something to do. People Watching is a fine sport.

    May the guy should have taken his guitar, joined the trio and formed a quartet, then joanne could’ve grabbed a mike and sang “I’m feeling lonely and blue.”

    Oh, alright, NO AMPLIFICATION DEVICE!

    (I mean why? I see amps in subways all the time)

    and if you’re gonna say possible bomb threat…you can hide a bigger bomb in the upright bass…

    That’s a bomber..ain’t it Kam…

    I wonder what Lennon would say?

    Enjoyed this little slice of the NYC Subway. Anyone seen the movie “Kontrol”? It is filmed in the Budapest subway, and tells a story ticket controllers (cops). Way cool and an interesting contrast to the NYC sub. Much cleaner and newer in Budapest than NYC, but not nearly as ornate.

    What camera phone you guys used? People playing instruments in a subway station. Their is nothing like that in SF. The cop was a jerk. Joanne you looked very sad at the end. :’(

    I’m really impressed by that phone… it seems surprisingly good in low light huh?

    Plenty of fun to be had with that thing.

    Happy weekend y’all

    I have been a viewer of your shows for a while, brilliant design and layout with such effort put in usability.

    I have to say I am lovin it …

    I am inspired by your site and on the move…

    I currently have company that does Search Engine Optimization and content management, for serveral car Dealerships.

    We will be shooting an on site commercial for a Volkswagen Dealership with the intent of streaming it on-line and finding highly viewed shows to have these commercials included in as Commercials.

    we are really looking to get the shows that are about to be the next Internet Favorites and see what it would cost to do.

    If there is any advise you can give please do.

    P.S I will be shooting on a : JVC 3CCD CAMERA,
    Editing: Final Cut Pro
    Mac G4
    OSX

    Bryan,

    Do you mean irrelevant pre-roll ads? Bloh.

    Also, Here’c3′a2′e2’82′ac’e2’84′a2s a little story for you.

    Chevrolet once went straight to the public with an offer: Create content for us. Among the three dozen or so videos subsequently posted on YouTube, almost all were critical.

    Chevy was in a bind’c3′a2′e2’82′ac’e2’80uc0u157 having invited consumers to the party, it couldn’t then throw them out.

    Wonderful video. Had a calmness that allowed a person to just observe–to be there in the real “being” sense. Such work captures the moment and that is special.
    Cheers,
