Posted September 14th, 2008 by Jeremy Schoemaker

I am pretty honored to be interviewed by Shel Israel:

Shel puppet has interviewed a who’s who of internet celebrity’s including Kevin Rose, Mike Arrington, and Jason Calcanis just to name a few. For a d-list blogger like me to sneak in is pretty cool!

    Jeremy, Now you are starting to realize the value of production value with video!

    I blogged about IzeaFest here: http://donotreadthisblogunless.blogspot.com/2008/09/izeafest-in-orlando-was-awesome.html

    The IzeaFest was great, and despite your initial nervousness, your keynote spoke from your heart and this translated well on the Ustream video. Thank you for stepping up!

    I spent ten years in a post-production house in Hollywood, worked on approximately 1,000 movies, and 6000, television shows, saw a lot of expensive, bad video production.

    Investor’s actually thought Universal’s ‘MANIMAL” would be a hit, of course a superhero that could morph into any animal and stop crime would be a cool thing, Ironman exhibited better effects and humour!

    Jeremy, keep the videos coming, you are on a roll. Respectfully, Nicholas

    I hate puppets.

    but you’re ‘forced’ to laugh, regardless if they’re funny or not – if you don’t…you’ll look like a total square on camera

    Love the interview, lots of fun, having some issues with your main landing page (not this page) though, I’ve got firefox and flash 9, the videos play fine just almost as the page load I’m getting an action script error, everything is enable fine on my browser to allow action scripts.

    Here is the error, Flash seems to work everywhere else for me.

    TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

    I don’t think its just my computer but its possible.

      I think he’s referring to the Zivity interview (I watched a few others after this) where the girl flashed Shel

    Jeremy, that was hilarious!

    You and Shel obviously have great chemistry. If you could just keep from giggling, perphaps you two could have a show together. :D

    Looking forward to seeing you in Vegas in a few days.
