I’ve got quite a bit to say, well three things actually, and instead of writing out a long post I’m pondering whether to write them as three separate posts, spread out over the weekend; that’s what I’ll do actually.

First item on the agenda is why I’ve been a tad quiet this week. I’m now back in Worcester, the land of sauce and home to Keyone Productions, as you will know from previous posts; this means that I’ve been able to concentrate more on personal and business projects, as opposed to mainly the University ones.

My relationship with Youthcomm, has been a long and fun one to say the least. Youthcomm currently runs three main projects, an online and FM youth operated community radio station (Youthcomm Radio), an online interactive portal (which is undergoing a revamp) and a youth operated telephone hotline for young people (Youthline).

Youthcomm, for some time now have had plans to launch an online television service, showcasing content created by the young people of Worcestershire. The content that it plans to deliver will be high quality video, generated by anyone who wants to be involved. This will be unlike services such as YouTube or PodShow because the Youthcomm TV project plans to provide training and equipment, to make these videos some of the greatest on the web.

There are current training modules in place and I’m helping to devise another aspect of the training that Youthcomm will provide. The area that I’m involved in focuses on evolving the skills gained in earlier training sessions, to make the generated videos of even better quality.

That is all that I’m going to say on that matter for the time being. There will be more posts later on…
