The introduction of HTML5 standards and the new <video> tag (and others like <canvas> or <audio>) opens new possibilities for audiovisuals in Internet and brings a stronger dimension to this field. With this advance appears Open Video.
Open Video brings access to the non-proprietary format networks and allows a prolific union of video elements with simple JavaScript language (implemented in all browsers), capable of modifying video in various ways.
A new scenario for online video seems to be emerging as this format becomes more organically integrated with the browser and connects in diverse ways with other elements. This allows new possibilities for interactivity among these elements as well as with the user by subverting the logic of traditional audiovisual narrative, its presentation and the notion of “gender”.
Aiming to create an interactive multimedia content functioning similarly to the web, the Open Video workshop presents the possibilities of HTML5 and technologies related with these standards. We aim to learn its tools, utilities and working methods in order to synchronize contents of diverse sources with video and audio, which will make these contents respond to interactions with the users and be applied to the creation of new websites.
The program is divided in three sessions from 10:00am-2:00pm.
03.13.2012 /10:00am-2:00pm: Theoretical Introduction
03.14.2012/10:00 am-2.00pm: Practical Cases
03.15.2012/ 10:00 am- 2:00 pm: Collaborative Project
Based in a collaborative development of the project using resources known in previous sessions. The process of creating a collective demo implies:
