Team Miro

Well, the Team Miro wiki is being extra finicky right now so I can’t paste the transcripts of the event just yet, but now would be a good time to go over how things went on Tuesday for those that couldn’t make it…

Technical difficulties aside (freenode blocked our embedded IRC on the website at the worst possible moment) I thought this was a really interesting chat with Jay and Ryanne. Spirits were high, and the adrenaline rush that followed a few panicked emails between Ryanne and myself had somewhat subsided by the time everyone started chatting at about 5pm. We talked about why they started Ryan is Hungry, favorite episodes, how they decide what to tape, and neither confirmed nor denied the existence of super-secret projects in the future ; )

More episodes are in the works, and I know I’ll be keeping an eye on their Miro channel as time goes by. Jay also mentioned they’ll be doing some workshops in Washington D.C.  sometime this summer, so I’d definitely check out their blog for updates if you’re in the area.

Kyle, Parker and myself (also interns) will be coordinating future events in the Video Creator series we’ve got cooked up for this summer, which will of course be mentioned on this blog and the Team Miro mailing list as well.

And just in case you’re wondering, no I haven’t forgot about the Get Satisfaction page I so highly lauded weeks ago – I’m still working on the fine details as far as stylizing our embedded wigets for the website. This is in part due to some borked local configs I had going on in my system and finding out I’m definitely a CSS white-belt when it comes to working with a preexisting web-site.  No worries though. With time, and the help of great Miro content I’m sure my Kung-Fu will reign supreme.
