AYP is on YouTube!
« on: December 07, 2008, 11:14:26 AM »
Hi All:

All of the AYP audiobook previews and radio interviews have been put on Youtube with still cover images in place of active video. They were put on Google Video at the same time.  

See here: http://www.youtube.com/user/yogani99
The link can also be found in the left border of the AYP website and forums under "Communities."

We have a new helper who is a video enthusiast, so there is more to come. The next step will be active video and/or video slide shows. But not the anonymous Yogani in front of the camera. [8D]

Stay tuned...

The guru is in you.

This was a great idea! Youtube is a great mean if you are aiming at publicising AYP.

The best of luck!

instead of the anonymous yogani in front of the camera, you could have yogani's voice with an animation.
See for example this video of Bjork singing "innocence". It kinda looks like her, but not really:

http://in.youtube.com/watch?v=72RFO1YtLMg

The last 15 seconds is more the kind of background effect that would go with AYP.

Hi Ether:

Thanks for the animation suggestion (and the interesting example). It is a possible direction we can go in, and has been discussed a little bit. It has implications for the Secrets of Wilder story too, much further down the road.

The next step will be a simple video slideshow for the 5 minute Deep Meditation audiobook preview. Then we will see what comes after that. We are taking it one thing at a time, depending on what happens at each step. We managed to get all the audiobook previews and interviews uploaded and organized on Youtube (44 files), no small task in itself. Now we are ready to move ahead.

Onward! [:)]  

The guru is in you.

This is wonderful!!  I just listened to the 8 Limbs piece.  And the slide show is a great idea. AYP will get so much more exposure this way.

Hey, Etherfish, I just wanted to thank you for the video, since that was me in a lot of way before, but I'm changing all of that.  

Also, yogani, I owe you an apology, since I was unaware of the way I was acting, but now that I am aware I can change.  So there's a lot of wonderful things happening.  And the site looks great btw.

Namaste:
VIL

Hi, I just saw this animation on meditation in youtube:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inmeP8gZtrQ

I thought it was quite cool and, although it is not the same method as AYP, I think AYP could do something similar. Apparently you already have the idea of doing an animation video so I just thought of leaving here this as an example, in case you haven't seen it yet.

All the best!

Hi YIL:

Thank you for that.

The quality of the animation is amazing (as is the amount of viewership), and we will continue to look into it. Of course, AYP practices are a different kettle of fish, both in practical utility and the fact that no columned temple or pedestal is required. [:)]
That would be reflected in any presentations we do.

It is very helpful to see what others are doing in animation. If there are other popular examples, feel free to post them.

In particular, it would be good to know what hardware, software and artistic skills are necessary to produce such high quality animations.

All the best!

The guru is in you.

Hi Yogani, glad you liked it.

Apparently this is just a clip of a bigger animation movie available through these guys - http://www.spiritual-reality.com/. It can also be seen starting here - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mAN_ykzXzoM.

I realise AYP would be different (your note about the pedestal and colummns made me laugh!) and that would be interesting to see, you know. It's a further step to AYP I guess, showing yet another facet of itself through visual media. I for one am quite curious!

I wish I could help you in terms of animation skills but I wouldn't know. I can try and ask around people I know that can have some skills for comments and advice. I guess you would need good software (Adobe premiere???) and, more than that, some good animation and computer artisitc skills. Here you have another completely different example:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=518Q9M7grSI

Read the description of the video. In this case he combined hand drawing and painting with scanning to a computer, and Photoshop and Adobe Premiere to edit it all in the end. There are a lot of ways to "skin this cat" it seems, but it all comes down to first having the idea to the animation (and maybe draw it on paper) and then the right skills to put it into digital form I guess, but I am sure you already know this. [;)]

In any case, all the best! I'll keep my eye out and post if I find out something.
