It's been a while...

So it's been a while, and since the last time I updated the Emerald City Video  blog, a lot has happened.

First of all, if you've only been here, you're missing out. There's new content! I swear!

You can mosey on over to emeraldcityvideo.podbean.com for regular updates, but here's a list of the stuff that hasn't been posted to the Blogspot page:

Captain America: Civil War/Hudson Hawk - http://emeraldcityvideo.podbean.com/e/episode-4-captain-america-civil-warhudson-hawk/

The Hateful 8/Krull - http://emeraldcityvideo.podbean.com/e/episode-2-the-hateful-8krull/

CHAMPIONS OF EARTH feat. Suicide Squad & Ghostbusters, plus a chat with Joshua Hale Fialkov and Tony Fleecs about their new video store comedy Jeff Steinberg, Champion of Earth - http://emeraldcityvideo.podbean.com/e/champions-of-earth/

#7favfilms with David Nielsen - http://emeraldcityvideo.podbean.com/e/7favfilms-from-david-nielsen/

#7favfilms with Russ Burlingame - http://emeraldcityvideo.podbean.com/e/7favfilms-from-russ-burlingame/

Linklater-TASTIC!: Everybody Wants Some!! & Dazed and Confused - http://emeraldcityvideo.podbean.com/e/episode-6-linklater-tastic/

As you can see by those URLs, I moved the podcast from Libsyn to Podbean. Why? Because for the relatively few downloads we get on every episode, it's way, way cheaper to do it on Podbean. Also, the fact that they have an affordable "unlimited" option means we can generate more and different content.

You can see that "more and different content" already starting to take shape with the #7favfilms hashtag. That was a thing that popped up on Twitter and I was intrigued by it, so Dave and I each took a shot at doing our picks and making short podcasts.

Mine, like the Civil War/Hudson Hawk episode of the podcast, is available on YouTube:



And that's the beginning of something you're going to see a lot more of. Emerald City Video is going to start presenting content more often -- much of it in a much shorter and more informal format. A lot of that shorter-form stuff is going to be presented in both video and audio formats, and we're going to start trying to build a bit more of a community on the Emerald City Video Facebook page.

So keep your eyes peeled -- both here and at those other locations. Things are starting to move in new and cool directions. We'll start with new content again tomorrow, which will be the fourth time we've updated in about a week...!
