My Five Favourite Blogs
My current five favourite blogs are as follows;
TV Tonight
David Knox was formerly at Screen Industry subscription site, Screenhub. This new blog has the latest news, inside word, breaking news and observation on the local television industry. From the latest ratings, to critque of network programming and audience spoilers - it's a very juicy collection of information.
The Lamp Water Cooler
From the New Media section of the Australian Film Television and Radio School, this blog site covers a wide range of topics from the insightful to the just plain fun.
Wishful Thinking
I've only recently added this to my reading list. Mark McGuiness is a UK based expert in coaching for creative people, his posts on both creative process and business coaching are very insightful.
Idents TV
John Beohm has an interest in a very niche area, he's interested in TV idents, those little station ID's that brand a network. An indepth look at titles, logo's and promotion. He collects samples from all over the world. There is some amazing stuff in here and it's interesting how different networks in different countries tackle similar challenges so differently. My favorite thing he's recently posted was the adds from Channel 4 in the UK that encourage people to take up digital TV, they used 80's icon Max Hedroom - (now in an old people's home) - to get the message across.
Tama Leaver
UWA's Dr Tama Leaver always finds the coolest stuff online, with a healthy interest in censorship, Web 2.0, Digital Culture, Education and Battlestar Gallatica, there is always an item of interest.
