I have begun the process of digitizing the recorded video from NEAF 2008. Unfortunately, some of the audio on certain video feeds is not "up to par". We will make as many of these videos available as we can.
I have selected blip.tv to host our video feeds.
cloudynights.blip.tv
Check back often as I will be uploading new videos everyday over the course of the next few weeks.

That's probably one of the best video sites I've seen as far as size and clarity go. 
Nice pick!!

It was amazing watching him progress through the days on both saturday, and sunday.. 
At first, there was a bit of "tenseness" in him. As the day progressed, he started to relax, and he flowed better. It was an amazing transformation to watch. Glad I got to do the cam to see it..
He also knows SOOOO many people. I think that's the biggest part of it. T's able to get others to relax, and be themselves due to his friendship with them. Makes for some classic moments. 
People WANT to talk with him, which makes the interviews, and walkarounds that much better. 
Looking forward to next year, thats for sure.
