Show Notes: Reflections on (October)

I just added a Show Notes section to Kinneas.com.

This will be the first in a series of Show Notes posts for broadcasts done on STO-Radio.com/Startrekradio.com/TrekRadio.com.
---
As I am not current, I will start with, 'Relections on October.'

General Mood of the Month:
What a creative, frustrating, angry, humble, thankful, jacked up, confused month October was.  We covered every possible emotion.

The Thirteen Days of Halloween
Growth is painful, yet we all came together to do our first Audio Production called, The Thirteen days of Halloween.   Despite it being rushed, everyone was 'Johnny on the spot' and delivered some amazing lines.  If there were Internet Awards for bet Audio Performance, I would nominate many of the DJ's.

We were fortunate to find the perfect voice for the 'Killer' in an old time listener, Morpheus (Jonathan Talon).

I was the Sound Editor (as well as Script Writer) on eight of the 13 Days and had a blast doing 'Foley'.  Some of the DJ's sent in multiple takes and it was a shame that so much stuff had to end up on the cutting room floor (as they say). Sometimes they would leave bloopers in and those turned out to be stronger and more funny and ended up in the final.

There was a contest in conjunction with this production and the listener who was able to send in the final 'Body Count' number would win: A signed copy of, Night of the Living Trekkies, a custom, I was killed on STO-RADIO tee-shirt, a 30 day key for Star Trek:Online (The MMO), 500,000 Energy Credits for Star Trek:Online.

The Thirteen Days of Halloween can be found in the On-Demand Section at www.startrekradio.com
The Thirteen days of Halloween tee-shirt, as well as STO-Radio.com & Startrekradio merchandise is available at: www.zazzle.com/startrekradio
----------
The 420 Show(s)
What can I say about the 420 shows?  We smoked a lot of different kinds of Felicium (See: Star Trek Encyclopedia) this month.  Bubble-Jack, Armagedden, Durbin, Royal Hawaiian, Kush... so many I can not remember them all. All of this was done outside of UFP space...so relax. 

Many people would like to believe it's utopia in the 24th century. Sorry. Human Nature remains a constant and many people are not going to live by the rules you want them to live by.   "Long Live MUDD!", "Long Live the Orion Syndicate!"  (Especially the Great Green Orion Felicium Distribution Network).

----------
The Great Brainstorm Show(s) for October.

"Best Brainstorm Ever!" - Rebel Weasel! (The 100 Year Mission Show)

The One Hundred Year Mission brainstorm discussed NASA/DARPA's plans to launch a one-way ship to Mars to start colonizing.  

The brainstorm covered: Would you go? What technologies will be needed? How soon till travel speed increase, sex in space, children in space, disenfranchised planets, going to war with ourselves...etc. etc.

We're on Star Trek.com !

October 8th, 2010.

HAILING FREQUENCY podcast now providing audio blogs for the official STAR TREK. COM website.  http://www.startrek.com/article/guest-blog-hailing-frequency-podcast

copied from startrek.com:
Founded in 2005, Hailing Frequency was the first podcast dedicated to Star Trek gaming. They have produced over 120 podcasts and are now the leading source for all Star Trek gaming news. They regularly interview producers from such companies as Cryptic Studios and GameForge.


This podcast marks the first time they have created material specifically for StarTrek.com. The hosts, Zach Nicodemous and Tony Tuthill, take you on a journey through the Star Trek gaming timeline and give you the inside scoop on what games to play. Look for more podcasts from them on StarTrek.com as well as the Hailing Frequency website.
----------------------------------------------------
Y'a know.  We have been featured on many sites and there have been a lot of great moments in the last few years but none that actually fills me with a bit o' pride like being featured on the official Star Trek web site! 

Other than hanging out on the various gaming forums over the years, startrek.com was the site where it began for us as gaming podcasters and where many of us met in the early days to decide on doing a community gaming  podcast.

It is truly where many of us met as we came together to wait and brainstorm on Star Trek: Online (the MMORPG).
----------
I was worried a few years back as there was a major overhaul of management and for a long time the site just sat kind of stagnant.  Gaming news was not updated regularly and when Cryptic Studios took over making Star Trek Online, the site showed Perpetual Entertainment as the makers almost right up until launch.
 
It was truly awesome to finally see our old friend get a make-over and much needed TLC.   The new site is beautiful, full of great stuff including great articles, episodes and extras, gaming news, merchandising etc.   Kudos to CBS for finally getting behind Star Trek (so it seems).
--
A big thank you to my podcast partner of over five years, Zach Nicodemous.  He made this happen.
He has been working tirelessly to keep Hailing Frequency in the lead as the #1 Star Trek gaming podcast as well as seeing our dream of launching a Star Trek Radio station (http://www.startrekradio.com/  & http://www.sto-radio.com/)
 
In the last month he has secured interviews with: Tim Russ (Tuvok), Chase Masterson (Leeta), Warp 11( Star Trek band), Rod Roddenberry, Wil Wheaton, etc.   ( Tim Russ, Chase masterson & Warp 11 have already appeared on sto-radio.com)
 
Thank you for a great day, Startrek.com.
Thank you for another great day, Zach.

Permanent,Star Trek Radio, Chase Masterson, NASA, Rick Sternbach, more celebs.

Quick recap of the past few months:

- New Video: Permanent: The Oldest Story in the World.  Music by Arthur Yoria.
- Started broadcasting on Star Trek Radio (also known as STO-Radio).
- Interviewed Chase Masterson (Leeta. Star Trek: Deep Space Nine)
- Participated in the NASA/IBEX briefing on the conditions at the edge of the Solar System.
- Set up an interview in October with Dr. Rock Sternbach (Sr. Illustrator, Star Trek:The Next Generation).

On Permanent:  I really wanted to do a 2012 story that incorporates information from Zecharia Sitchin book, 'The Lost Book of Enki', learn flash animation & use the music of Arthur Yoria...   ...as well as create a video submission for the Guggenheim 'YouPlay' event (in conjunction w/ YouTube).  All went well, with the exception that the Guggenheim do not choose my entry.  No biggie. What mattered most to me was that I start getting a grip on Flash as well as basic animation techniques.  I learned a lot and feel like I really overcame some serious hurdles.

On Star Trek Radio (STO-Radio): My podcasting partner since 2005, Zach Nicodemous at Hailing Frequency informed me he had the means to start the radio station we had always wanted.  Though it would no be the 'Fleet Radio' station I wanted, it would be under the web sites, startrekradio.com as well as STO-Radio.com.  After things went very very bad at subspace-radio.net (please boycott them, by the way) I was not sure if I wanted to broadcast at all anymore, but he talked me into it.  I'm glad I did.  It is a great station and we have some amazing DJ's and almost full 24/7 live coverage as well as the best fan made audio dramas. 

On Chase Masterson:  What an amazing and beautiful woman. I'm really honored I was able to be a co-host on that interview. It was awesome finding out all the great projects she has been involved in since Trek. Her awards for Producing and the charities she helps out with.

On participating in the NASA/IBEX teleconference: I had nothing to loose by requesting Press access to the teleconference.  I was surprised that I actually got it.  So this afternoon, I tuned in and dialed-up and presented my question.  It was neat getting to say: "This is Anthony Tuthill for Star Trek Radio...".  I have been following the IBEX mission since launch and have a deep interest in the magnetic fields of our solar system as well as the possibility of being able to leverage them for space propulsion someday.

On Doc Sternbach.   I have interviewd the Doc a few times in the past and really felt the need to reconnect with him and find out what's new.  I'm in the process of scheduling a date to have him on-air in mid October.

On other celebs:  It looks like I may have an opportunity to interview Wil Wheaton ,  Rod Roddenberry, Warp 11, George Takei and possibly even William Shatner. Some may be very soon...   ...others may not be until next year.

--Best

SAVE the PRINCESS!

An all too familiar quest, I know.  Yet I implore you, my knights and my countrymen to rise once more to that most ancient and noble of quests. Save the Princess from the evil king(s).

Today's princess is, The Venetian Princess.  "The female Weird Al", "YouTube's #1 Most Subscribed Female"...and this is the plea from her tower:

Copied from Facebook:
Venetian Princess: Three of my videos have been claimed as copyright infringement by Sony Publishing. "Accident Prone" was completely removed from YouTube, while "Just A Zombie" and "Outerspace" are now monetized by Sony. Meaning they are making money off of my hard work.
As you guys know, the US Law protects parodies under fair use. But most of my videos are not even the same music, Steve and I re-write generic songs. Especially "Outerspace"- that's a whole original song on it's own. A completely different musical composition from Poker Face. So I here I sit, pondering what to do with my YouTube videos, and what my future on YouTube will now look like. As most of you have noticed, I've taken a bit of a break to step away from YouTube within the last few months. I've been focusing on family and "real life." AND planning new content with new ideas for videos I anticipated premiering in September. Now I don't know what I can do. It seems that my rights have been taken away from me.
YouTube is my life, it is how I make a living. Now a big time corporation is actually taking money away from me- that could have gone to my mortgage. Like they really need it. The songs are original and they simply have no right to monetize my work. That being said, I don't know where the future lies for me in terms of youtube. But I do know that above all of this, you guys brought me to the success level I was able to get to. So even if I never make a video ever again, I want you guys to know I appreciate all of the wonderful support you all have given me. I could not have asked for anything more. YOU guys mean the world to me. Whether it's on YouTube or some other platform, I hope to share my passion of making videos with you again in some form or another.

Bye bye for now
♥ Jodie

I am very interested what the U.S. Copyright Office & Google are going to do about this.

What does this mean for Google & YouTube?

What does this mean for you and I, my knights and my countrymen?! Let us find out! Let us take up the quest to use whatever news powers we have to raise this to the eyes of the network, to all YouTube users & to the world.
