The New DinnerAndSong Video - create your own version?

Posted by admin on 18 Jan 2011 | Tagged as: General

Wow… your responses… the DNS video. And the new version.

This is by far the best and strongest response I’ve ever received to an email. Hundreds of you checked the “very rough” video and gave me some thoughtful and helpful feedback.

(Oh, and 8 new hosts signed up for DNS events!)

Some of you offered help and expressed a desire to put your own touches to the video, and I’d love that. Let’s keep it going on our DinnerAndSong page at Facebook, OK? And here are answers to your most common questions about DNS.

(Oh, and here’s the YouTube version)

Share this one!

Create Your Own Version!

or… get in on one of our future versions.

PS - If you want to contribute to future versions, here are some things I could use. Please don’t spend money on this… I don’t know what I’ll use… only do this if you have the time, the equipment, or the desire to make your own DinnerAndSong video. (I’ll provide the sample script and logo if you want it.)

Video (I’d only use a few seconds of each.)

  • a great side-angle shot that shows 6-10 people and a solo/duo enjoying the performance. No microphones.
  • view of 4-8 people enjoying SIMPLE, uncluttered dinner in a residence. Pizza, chinese take-out, etc. Laughter, smiles, a few people taking bites, some chatting. I don’t want the table too cluttered or a pot-luck feel. Sliced up 3 foot sub would do it.
  • a host or artist describing what appeals to them about this program. (We’ll probably make separate video of this as well so we can feature many excerpts)
