Euro CineShow 2008
MagmaWave presented a seminar at the EuroCineShow this week in Torino. Alongside Davide Scalenghe of CurrentTV, Daniel McVicar presented: From Facebook to Film. Uses of New Media and Modern Filmmaking. Specific tools were given to the packed room on how to use the new media in reaching your audience and telling your story.
Davide Scalenghe talked about how CurrentTV is using User Created Content in its programming, and how to make that happen. He is also quite a doppelganger for leading Netizen Ze Frank.
The seminar was a great success, and Daniel McVicar’s Italian was sturdy enough to communicate the ideas, although it may be similar to Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger’s English, accented but effective. The seminar was in such demand that it was moved to a larger hall. Thanks to the Euro Cine Show

From Facebook to Film. Uses of New Media and Modern Filmmaking
Daniel McVicar heads MagmaWave Media, a cross platform production company in the US and Torino. He leads a conversation in the effects, uses and challenges of new internet based media in the filmmaking process, and the promotion, distribution and monetization of film.
With every challenge in the disruption of film distribution by YouTube, there is an opportunity to use these new technologies to bring new audiences and voices to your filmmaking and storytelling.
The presentation includes concrete examples on the new low-cost techniques to bring audience interest to your story, and to engage your audience with social and internet media in addition to cinema and television.
By stirring a conversation on the use of these ever evolving technologies this seminar will take the mystery out of the new media.
