OneSpot SXSW 2010 Panel Voting - Online Video Killed The Publishing Stars
August 24 2009, 7:00am
As voting for panels continue, we’ll focus on one of our panels every day. Today, it’s a technology and content panel: Online Video Killed the Publishing Stars.
Panel Description
This next generation is using online video as their first stop for news, information, and even scholarly research. In this group, print media is deader than MTV. How can print-based publishers compete in this visual era? Should they compete, or is there still an audience that wants to read news?
Possible Panelists
Matt Cohen, CEO of OneSpot
Guy Kawasaki – Alltop
Senior Representative - Twitter
Senior Representative - NYTimes
Senior Representative - YouTube
Senior Representative – Hearst
Senior Representative - CNN
Questions this panel will answer
1. What is the state of print media today and how did we get here (history)?
2. Why has online video become the dominant medium for the new generation?
3. Apples to oranges: can text compete with video?
4. What tools and technology are major print publishers utilizing to compete?
5. Who has a better rabbit hole: related videos or related articles with discussions?
6. Is this all cyclical: will new generations return to papers and magazines?
7. Has online video become more pervasive because it embraced user generated content early, as opposed to the early distaste for bloggers?
8. With so much user generated video content out there, how can you find the trusted source ala major newspapers?
9. Many media outlets have begun embracing amateur reporting. Should there be vertical platforms created by the media outlets (iReport) or should media outlets partner with existing platforms (YouTube, Current)?
10. What might replace/kill online video in the future?
