I agree with - staying with our focused effort (even if not ginormus) would be my preference.

I've been sending out emails inviting people to be part of this, but so far
responses have not been overwhelming. Guess this is something we'll have to
keep needling people about.
 
If we want, we can adjust the project to be part of this, which I just
became aware of: http://www.loudsauce.com/occupyspots#faq
 
The downside would be that videos could only be 30 seconds, and presumably
we couldn't slap a title bar on them screaming "Poughkeepsie Rulez". The
upside is that there's a very slight chance the videos could end up on TV.
Would that possibility get more people interested in the project, do you
think, or scare them off?

Personally, I'd like to stay focused on what we've agreed to do for now.
We do not need a large group, just a few people dedicated to doing it.
Ander Sander, Blake, Kyle, Andy Papula and several others have signed on
so that could be enough. I'm trying to get a cross-section of our
demographic and really, no more than ten, and I think we're almost there.
 
For the loudspace project we could easily edit the best of what we've
got for submission or take the best speakers and re-shoot them for this.
 
That's just my 0.02.

I think it's a great idea (we can never have our name in too many places), and it seems in line with some of the things we discussed at the last occupy media meeting: i.e., consider another video that includes all regional occupies (occupy hudson valley). I think it's worth talking about at our Sat. mumble session.
 
Also, regarding the Occupy Hudson Valley newsletter, does anyone know who the administrator is for the Occupy Hudson Valley website? I want to link the newsletter to the website but need to speak to the administrator to make that happen.
 
Thank you!!
