Invitation: Explainer video workshop during Wikimania Pre-Conference
by Claudia Garád 15 Jul '15

15 Jul '15

Hi everyone, are you attending this year's Wikimania and are you looking for some interesting things to do during Wikimania Pre-Conference? Well, perhaps this is for you: on*Thursday afternoon*, we will be hosting a workshop for creating animated explainer videos for Wikimedia projects: https://wikimania2015.wikimedia.org/wiki/Workshop_for_Explainer_Videos Videos have become a popular format for the dissemination of information - especially short animated explainer videos which provide a quick overview over complex topics. The same principle applies to Wikipedia: videos can enrich exisiting content and provide an entertaining and easily comprehensible access to free knowledge. Together with experts from the simpleshow foundation Wikimedia Österreich offers workshops for Wikimedians which are designed to learn the tricks of the trade of screenwriting for explainer videos. In the context of this year’s Wikimania we are happy to host such a workshop for the international community*.* Content of the workshop * Interested participants will learn the basic skills for creating plots of explainer videos: how to explain complex topics in a short and comprehensible way, how to work with cut-out animation, storyboard conception and visualization * The participants create and refine their scripts and storyboards together with the simpleshow foundation after the workshop * The realization and production of the finished storyboard will be done by the simpleshow foundation, the result will be published under the CC-BY-SA license on Wikimedia Commons * The screenwriters can use the videos for Wikipedia articles and other purposes What do you need? * Interest in storytelling * A topic for an explainer video * No previous knowledge in screenwriting or video production necessary Please sign up here: https://wikimania2015.wikimedia.org/wiki/Workshop_for_Explainer_Videos Claudia -- Claudia Garád Executive Director Wikimedia Österreich - Verein zur Förderung Freien Wissens Siebensterngasse 25/15 1070 Wien 0699 141 28615 www.wikimedia.at <http://www.wikimedia.at/>

Talking Video at Wikimania
by Manuel Schneider 08 Jun '15

08 Jun '15

Dear all, in the last week there was a lot of work going on behind the scenes. The Video Editing Server (Schnittserver) is up running and functional, there have been visits and conference call with the Wikimedia Foundation and the Internet Archive etc. There was consensus that we want to do joint presentations at Wikimania what has been done, the tools we have and what we want to do in the future. Also we want to meet again like we did last year at the Video Lunch and shape our future. So I was bold and drafted some Wikimania submissions and ask you to join in. Please feel free to modify the abstract! This is just a first draft for submissions of all of us. https://wikimania2015.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions/Podemos!_How_Videos_ar… - content-oriented projects, what has been done https://wikimania2015.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions/Video_Production_Tools… - tech-oriented, tools existing, ongoing development https://wikimania2015.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions/Video_Community_Coordi… - working meeting, continuation of last year's video lunch Thanks!

No longer working for Wikimedia Nederland
by Sebastiaan ter Burg 02 Mar '15

02 Mar '15

Hello everyone, I am no longer working for Wikimedia Nederland as of March 1, 2015. I’ve had the privilege to work on numerous projects that contributed to the availability and the use of free knowledge and content of the cultural sector. I want to thank everyone I’ve worked with over the last two years. Wikimedia Nederland and I have agreed to part ways. Don’t worry, I’ll stay active in the field of open knowledge and open content, as a freelance advisor and producer. Current projects will be taken over by colleagues at Wikimedia Nederland. Please contact one of the following people about these projects: - GLAM cooperation: Sandra Fauconnier, fauconnier(a)wikimedia.nl - GLAM-WIKI conference: Denise Jansen, jansen(a)wikimedia.nl - other: Sandra Rientjes, rientjes(a)wikimedia.nl You can reach me personally at sebastiaan(a)ter-burg.nl, my mobile number stays the same: +31 6 480 88 615. With kinds regards, Sebastiaan

#Edit2015 at Wikimania 2015
by Victor Grigas 25 Feb '15

25 Feb '15

Hi everyone, I'm hoping to present at Wikimania about the video I produced to mark the end of 2014 through the lens of Wikipedia; https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Wikipedia_Edit_2014.webm and how we can open up collaboration to make a new video for 2015. I'd like to start a discussion about it on this thread. Here is the link to the Wikimania submission: https://wikimania2015.wikimedia.org/wiki/Submissions/Edit2015_-_A_community… Basically, I think that 1.) #Edit2014 serves as a proof-of concept 2.) The majority (or all) the pre-production for #Edit2015 can be open and collaborative 3.) We don't have a collaborative editing platform (yet), so I'd like to focus on one unknown element at a time, in this case, pre-production and making it collaborative. I'm open to hear people's thoughts! -- *Victor Grigas* Storyteller <http://youtu.be/ci0Pihl2zXY> Wikimedia Foundation vgrigas(a)wikimedia.org https://donate.wikimedia.org/

Opinions: Category for video?
by Andrew Lih 29 Dec '14

29 Dec '14

What are your opinions of having a category for "articles with video" in WP? The one was created for en.wp is being considered for deletion. When the numbers were small, it made sense to try to track these, but perhaps Phoebe's suggestion that it stay a parent category and we label sub-categories may work? What have others in other WP communities been doing? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2014_… -Andrew

Some problem of TimedText namespace
by Shun Fukuzawa 15 Dec '14

15 Dec '14

Hi guys, I made Japanese subtitle for the movie on commons. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/TimedText:Knowledge_for_Everyone_(no_sub… But I encountered 2 problems. * This namespace ignores templates. So I can't put the license template to it. This template is not appeared on the movie. * It ignores also line breaks of subtitle. Especially, Japanese sentences don't have spaces for reading, so it's hard for audience to understand it immediately. Anyone has a solution to this? Thanks,
