DailyMotion has proven to be a strong online video site. Part of the
proof is that it is still around. Part of it is that is growing. Circle
of Seven Productions signed a contract with DailyMotion so that we can
offer “Official Content”. The contract is pretty basic, with promises
that we’ll offer quality content that follows the laws of copyright and
that we will provide consistent content. In exchange, DailyMotion will
allow us to upload all content without the…

We’re really thrilled to be an official MySpace video partner which
happened in May of this year. Being an actual MySpace partner has some
benefits. Now our videos accepted immediately without the filters most
other video uploads have to go through. And if there are any problems
with an upload or the content we have a direct line to MySpace for a
quick resolution!
MySpace was once the main online social
community for COS Productions and is still in the top 10.…

Blip is one of the single most important online video sites COS
utilizes. It is a powerhouse for getting your video to a variety of
audiences.

wonderful venue and we see a good deal of views come from the Blip site
itself. In addition, the site offers additional distribution
opportunities, all of which we have applied. The Blip RSS feed…

Commentary by Sheila English
I didn’t get to make it to the CEO panel much to my regret, so like many
others I waited for PW to send out their daily review of what was going
on at BEA so I could find out what was said.
Of course e-books was a hot topic and the panel had a variety of
opinions. The panel included ABA CEO Oren Teicher, Workman Group
publisher Bob Miller, Authors Guild’s new president Scott Turow, ICM
executive v-p Esther Newberg,…

most views.
We have subscribers to our MetaCafe channel which is important since
those people will get a notification when we upload a video.
There seems to be a more…

Royalty free doesn't mean you can use it any way you like. You need to read the fine print. If something is being used for promotion, which means you hope to gain financially from it, the "royalty free" license may change for you. Sometimes people require credit, sometimes they stipulate that you can't use it for that purpose. You need to read the fine print! Yes, I'm going to say that a lot.
After 8 years of creating book trailers and over 600 book trailers created, I've seen a lot of…

If you have a profile here please be sure to add a photo. It helps me easily identify people. I will be going through this site and removing people who are promoting things other than books or related material.

Of all the beautiful photos you’ve ever seen in your life, what would be the ones you would put in a single book to share with the world?
National Geographic tapped into its vault of photographs from over years of time and put them together in this amazing book.
Some of these pictures are dated back to the 19th century and some are never-before-seen pictures. All of them are breath taking.
As someone who loves photography, both the art and the mechanics, this…

Even in troubled times, it helps to escape into a solid but fantastic story with engaging and lovable but idiosyncratic characters speaking dialogue that “reads like eavesdropping.” Mixing the bygone ideals of the past with the shady realities of today can seriously satisfy a reader’s soul. Gabriela Herink’s new book The Gifted Ones does just that in a fresh and natural style.
At the tender age of three, when most little girls were playing with dolls and talking to imaginary friends,…

In Heartsick, which was a NY Times bestseller for author
Chelsea Cain, we are introduced to a very dangerous and lovely serial killer. The detective is a well thought out character and I was thrilled when…

What if you had a perfume that would make Johnny Depp, Tobey Maguire, Christian Bale, or Will Smith (or for you guys Angelina Jolie, Jessica Alba or Katie Holmes) fall at your feet and beg you to date them, kiss them…whatever. Some people say that there are aphrodisiacs that can make someone want you sexually. They can make you totally irresistible and sexually appealing.
What do you think someone would do to own something like that if it really worked?
This book called…
