Remix America

We need a few good encoders to make history.

EpicFU, The Uptake, Remix America, and The Denver Film School are looking for your help during the two upcoming political conventions. As we are just days away from the American Political Olympics, we need volunteers to help us digitize morning political shows and nightly news programs. This will culminate in a cobranded nightly citizen journalist newscast with EpicFU, The Uptake, Remix America, The Denver Film School, AND YOU!!!
We are looking for people who have DVRs and/or encoding systems. Alternatively, Remix America will buy you an EyeTV or a SageTV box. The catch? You must be willing to capture the political punditry squawking away their play by plays. The game plan is to have 5 volunteers capture footage, encode it, annotate it and then upload it to an asset management system for our team of remixers, editors and citizen journalists.
It is my job to ensure you have a time slot and all of your questions answered. If you are interested, shoot me an email noel[at]remixamerica.org.

I really hope you can help us make internet history, or at least help us find peeps to make internet history.
