Interview on WebM and HTML5 at StreamingMedia West

ScribeMedia.org produced a number of video interviews at StreamingMedia West, including an interview with StreamingLearning Center’s founding visionary, Jan Ozer (sorry, couldn’t resist, writing in the third party is so freeing). As the title suggests, host Peter Cervieri and I discuss WebM, HTML5 and several other issues.

Interestingly, the interview was shot with a single HD camera, and the ScribeMedia folks did a great job making it look like a multiple camera shoot. Note the cool “Smallville” effect, with the video starting at near black and white and then transitioning into color.
