Less Than One Month Away!

We’re less than one month away from the 4th edition of Vlog Europe on the 18th and 19th of October, and we would love to have you there!

This year’s meetup takes us to Budapest’s Loft Hostel , where we have 18 beds, great common areas, a huge TV for screenings and a great location in the heart of Budapest! Accomodation this year is free for up to 18 people on a first come, first served basis for the nights of October 17 and 18. At the time of this posting, we have 5 slots left.

Participants will be coming in from all over Europe on every mode of transport imaginable. And thanks to our core sponsor TechSmith, some particpants will be bus-ing and train-ing their way to Budpest and will video the entire trip!

This year, we plan on having a free form, participant-generated schedule. Think of it like a 1960’s “be in”, but less flower power and more Vlog. We’ll be doing everything from screening videos to discussing the newest and best tools available to videomakers, and much more! We’re looking at meeting up with our Vlogger friends all over the globe via Flashmeeting or other means, so please stay tuned for details.

There’s still plenty of time to plan, and we’d love to have you there. Anyone with an interest in web-based video is welcome.

To secure your slot at the hostel, or just let us know that you are coming, please click here and add your name to our wiki. If you have any questions, leave a comment on this post.

We’ll post more news as we have it. We look forward to seeing you in Budapest!

Vlog Europe Update

We let things get a bit quiet over the holiday period, but we’re back and ready to move forward with the blog!

First, we invite you join the Vlog Europe Yahoo! Group (mailing list), in which many conversations surrounding the annual event and general discussion about Videoblogging. For instance, one member let us know that a very promising event, VideoCamp Paris , is in the planning stages.

One thing we’ve been discussing over the past few months on the Vlog Europe Yahoo Group is the how and the where of Vlog Europe event for 2008. We are in the middle of compiling everything that was said, and will be putting forward a proposed plan both on the Yahoo! Group and on this blog within the next couple of weeks. We hope that the past participants and interested future participants will like the ideas we came up with based on your feedback and watching what other people are doing with their events.

Finally, we will begin curating videos here soon, and we think it’s a good idea to start by posting some of the best work we’ve seen from past Vlog Europe participants. If anyone would like a login to post some of these videos or to post about anything related to Vlog Europe, please let us know.

Stay tuned, and make sure you’re subscribed to our feed.
