Video is taking over the internet. Fast. Nonprofits need to get in front of this trend now. Video can be complicated and expensive, but it doesn’t have to be.

Join Net Tuesday this May for a licorice allsorts bag of video treats.

  1. Top three nonprofit videos – what makes them awesome?Siobhan Aspinall will share the sweetest nonprofit videos and lead a discussion of why they’re successful. This is video that will melt your face with its philanthropic awesomeness.
  2. Popcorn Maker – annotating your videosDo you remember Pop Up Video, the snarky series that overlayed commentary on top of your favorite music videos? Well Mozilla has created a free tool that allows you to remix any video on the internet. Join Eli van der Giessen for a live demo.
  3. Animoto – turning your photos into videosSo your project or event is over – now it’s time to report back to your sponsors and supporters. Now you could send them to a photo gallery, but what if we told you that you could easily create a mind-blowing event video from your photos or slides automagically? Tiva Quinn will show you how – in real-time!
