(This will be deleted if idea is liked and I will make another thread regrading the idea...)
So, I was thinking... Why not start group podcast or Q and A's every month? For example as this is the month of Halloween, we can do a podcast talking about memorable moments that were considered "spooky" in video games. Another example is November is know as Zelda month, so we can answer user based questions strictly on our Zelda experiences...
How will this be done? The podcast will be done via Skype call. I have software that can record Skype calls... So yeah. Also, if approved by Fyree, I will have a sticky thread for all users to decide on what would be each month's podcast... How I will decide the questions that will be in Q and A's? Simple... after what the topic is decided, if it is going to be a Q and A's topic, I will made a thread for you guys to ask your questions...
On top of all of this, when I make the recording of each podcast, I will be putting them into a video with a still image (future project for GFX team maybe?) and adding the podcast to upload to the forum's channel... So, this will help bring in traffic to the site through our Youtube channel as well!
Well, do you guys like my idea of a monthly podcast? Answer in the poll!

I'm down with ANY ideas to help this site...
and I DO have Skype, I just don't use it a whole lot--but if THIS were to happen, and have enough support from more than a couple Members who Skype often enough, it can be a definite possibility...
I'd like to get SOME sort of Podcast/Video/Whatever done before all is forgotten and put out of reach--cause advertising this site is one of my driving forces(and with being gone for 5 days, and seeing that just about everything here went into SLEEP MODE, I want there to be attention-grabbers here)--which starts with ADVERTISING this site.
There's a Skype group already formed BTW--just search for The Nintendo Element, and see ME (FyreeTSG) and your there.
If we can get at least 4 or 5 members who are active enough, and Skype frequently, THIS can happen---and you already have MY vote

Yea sure this sounds like fun. I'm usually pretty active on skype during the early day to late evening; that & I think that the majority of the members here are on a different time schedule from me since I'm EST; I'm usually on earlier then most every one else is. I love the idea but the podcast would need some sort of scheduled time where every one could get on at the same time. (This is how it worked for another podcast I was a part of a few years ago.)

organizing and trying to schedule things across timezones is always difficult--I'll let YOU guys try to come up with something for a scheduled WEEKLY or however often, Podcast/Skype chat.
And I'm gonna make an announcement about the Media Team in a little bit in relation to things

A 3 hour difference.. Nothing too major... I can work around things. I plan to do everything on Thursdays or Saturdays around 5PM PST and I want a minimum of 3 at the moment... Will increase once our site grows. So technically, if you and Fyree are open around 5PM PST on a Thursday or Saturday, we are getting somewhere... |

I'm usually free on Thursday. I take the weekends off as I need a break from the internet, nothing personal against any site or anyone it's just how it is. ^^ But I suppose it depends on Fyree's schedule too, so in the end it all depends on when he's available. ^^;

I don't use my Skype to frequently, but if we get this going I can always just log into my account and join in. I think this is a good idea and is a great way to put more stuff out there that someone could just happen to stumble upon too.
One question.....When you record Skype (DarkIce) does it record the screens, because I know just listening to a blank podcast could get boring and just having something to watch could help out.

Its audio only. And yeah, I COULD add game footage, especially if I can find enough people to do this November for a "Zelda Month" podcast, I could add Wind Waker HD footage... But the thing is, my capture device for my Wii U isn't working properly at the moment. So, until I can fix it (if I can), we're stuck with a still background image. |

there are things that we can do for video, along with audio...
and I don't necessarily NEED to be in the Skype chat, it'd just have to be in the Nintendo Element Skype Room.
IF we can schedule a Skype chat--which can be turned into a Podcast(just an audio one for now), that can get enough people IN it--you have my Blessing, just stick to Site Rules, and try to stick to a specific topic or two...

Thing is, the topics will be made by people who will not attend the chat. What I plan is take have at max (for now) 4 people. Everyone else contributes (if they please) with questions to be asked about said subject for us to answer and or talk about... Subjects can range from the site to Future of Nintendo.... Speaking of which, I'm going to arrange November's Podcast now... Seems a little to late for this month... If you feel this is good enough, can you put the November Podcast thread with the announcements so it can be found easier? |
