Why the redesign? We produce 10-15 videos most days. They quickly rotate off the NewsOK home page.

Why the redesign? We produce 10-15 videos most days. They quickly rotate off the NewsOK home page. So the video landing page needed updating to better showcase the video library we’re growing.

Highlights:
- Featured videos up top. We have four of them.
- Latest or most recent videos are listed in order beneath the featured videos.
- Programming grid. On the right side of the video page you’ll find today’s programming. All of the videos on this page are taped, so the times you see are when we expect the videos to be posted online.


Clicking on the navigation will take you to specific video topics: news, business, sports, etc. On those pages, you’ll find (what else?) videos about news or sports or business, starting with the most recent up top in the play area and continuing with more videos down below. In the middle are the most popular videos as clicked on by you the user.

We also gave the video templates a new look. It’s much more like a YouTube video page. On the right side of each individual video, you’ll find related articles and related videos for more browsing.

]]> We managed to crank out 13 videos today from the OPUBCO Studios crew, including nine in the studio. Topics ranged from sports (go figure) to politics to energy. Our energy segment is doing very well in video traffic. That surprises me. Perhaps it’s a demo that’s been untapped. It routinely ranks in our top five or top ten of videos each day. Usually that’s reserved for sports and breaking news.

And bull elk fights.

Seriously, the bull elk video that was submitted by someone back in January ranked among our highest viewed video for months.

Tomorrow we’ll tackle wake boarding at the Oklahoma River. Tanner has already conquered this once. And we’ll cover the NBA team name being unveiled, announced and promoted. That’s a pretty big deal. I think Angi is getting a hair cut too. And somewhere in there we’ll interview former mayor Kirk Humphreys for an upcoming video/print piece.
