Hence why for the next 3 days I’ll be working on some music as a contribution to what I believe in.

Hey Calem, if you need some guitar work recorded for any FTC projects, let me know. I’ve been playing for 14 years and I have a Pro Tools HD rig ready to go. Here’s a link to my band’s soundcloud that I set up (we’re getting ready for an itunes release pretty soon) [url=https://soundcloud.com/nevercast]https://soundcloud.com/nevercast[/url]

Hi,

New here but happy to help with the media team.

I divide my time between UK and NL, so pretty busy but happy to help.

I am an excellent proof-reader, educated to Master’s level. English only unfortunately, but happy to edit/proof-read any document before you send it out.

I’m also a software developer and run an IT consultancy so might be able to assist in other ways in the future.

Someone asked about a way for the media teams to collaborate using some software that is better than the forums. I can HIGHLY recommend hall.com. We recently completed an evaluation on a slew of platforms for team collaboration for geographically dispersed teams - hall.com came top (against Campfire, GoToMeeting, Skype, MS Lync and a few others I cannot remember).

I think we can hall.com for free if since you only pay if everyone is on the same company domain (which we will not be). Also we don’t really need group video/voice conferencing, although you get 1-to-1 for free also.

I am not affiliated with hall.com in any way.

Cheers,
CountBlood

Definitely. There’s another guy as well who’s got some hardware synth’s. My brother and a family friend of ours is a brilliant guitarist too. So yeah. Once I get organised and finally finish this mix I’m trying to finish off, we could get stuck into some serious collaborations.

That site is going to be awesome! It’s one of those ideas that I see and think, “Why in the world did I not think of this?”. I signed up.

Quick question. Does your brother have a cell phone? I have a buddy of mine who isn’t set up to record at his place, so he’ll record his parts with his cell phone and I just use it as a scratch track to lay down a higher quality recording of what he plays. We could at least use that type of a recording to get some of his ideas/input.

Well, Yes actually. That could work out just fine. I’m assuming his laptop has a built in web cam but he does also have an android based phone. Which reminds, we were trying to find an android feathercoin wallet… note to self… must do looking or raise this question…

Anyways, yeah. I’ll get in contact with him and see what he thinks. In fact, I’ll get him to start been on the forum more… Will make things a thousand times easier.

mattmct

I’m willing to throw my hat into the ring and help.

I’m from England (so have the same accent as most of the Feathercoin founders haha) but live in Southern California (LA area).

I’m self employed in the publishing / online media area for technology products., Have experience in SEO, marketing, video production / editing. YouTube etc.

I love the community, and would love to help out more.

SkullandHeadphones

I’ll send you a link of my work. one way or the other all the best.

CountBlood: Thanks for getting in touch and suggesting a team-collab alternative. We’ll be looking to get that set up in the coming weeks. I’ll be in touch very shortly on the forums.

Thanks again for replying everyone!

mattmct

Cool, will do mnstrcck.

Cheers SkullandHeadphones!

Hey Guys

I Just introduced myself in the newbie section, hello again!

I am a designer animator with loads of experience with global brands,

I am invested and i am thinking of creating a 30 second animated viral spot for FTC to help the community and dare I say help my investment ;-) (I am a whore what can I say)

obviously I can’t show alot of my work here for contractual reasons but here a some private things I’ve done over the last year or so for you to look at and maybe you could let me know if you would want me to take a stab at it.

My General reel http://vimeo.com/66241895

Avatar this is not but on the tiny budget we had this turned out ok http://vimeo.com/27144971

Something I did for the Rozzers to try to stop pissed people getting in more trouble http://vimeo.com/27912351

I think if I was to commit I would ask for your ideas/contributions to a brief of what everybody thinks is the key message we need to portray from which I would produce a script for peer review before committing to any work.

Anyway thoughts comments and the like please!

Very best and look forward to talking to you all

I think this a great idea!

And what’s the status on the media team? I guess someone with the “know how” of webbs could join it…

I’m just pasting these Suggestions from EnigmaMan

https://forum.feathercoin.com/index.php?/topic/6548-new-exposure-for-feathercoin/

One thing I have noticed that feathercoin lacks is exposure. I would suggest the following:

1. Properly SEO the Website (which it barely is)

2. Have others go to other forums and write blog / forum posts about Feathercoin and draw traffic / interest back to the website - Helps with google rankings!

3. Start writing BLOG posts touting the security and ability to thwart attackers

4. Start posting charts about the longevity and Stability of price throughout these recent declines in bitcoin prices

5. Start doing press-releases with major news organizations! When I go to google and type in “feathercoin” and search for news, right now ~15 articles show up tops!!! Contact WSJ, Huffington post, cnn etc. This is an EXCELLENT opportunity to get out there the security of feathercoin that bitcoin lacks!

6. Consider Facebook targeted advertising to get the word out.

7. Provide feedback on HOW people heard about feathercoin, exchange? Google Search? Friends?

8. Provide examples on how EASY it is to invest/buy/sell/trade feathercoins and how FAST transactions.

9. Update your wiki page with statistical information.

The more Stats and facts you can provide about it the more interested people will become in using it.

This is just a start, but just some examples on how to reach out to a targeted market, with out awareness you might as well be talking to a wall and expecting results.
