parties


We did something a little different with Ed Kelley's Oklahoma Matters today.

First, we used the segment to promote The Oklahoman's football section. It hits newsstands and driveways Sunday.

During the segment, we used video from Nate Billings' Oklahoma Focus segment from last week. Nate, one of The Oklahoman's photographers, described what equipment he used, and why, for the black and white photos used in the football section.

Check out the result, pretty cool. Also note the lower third animation used to introduce Ed. Credit to Tanner Herriott for the editing.


Parties Extra! with Helen Ford Wallace

Have you met Helen Ford Wallace? Helen knows how to party. That’s why her blog and podcast are called Parties Extra! with Helen Ford Wallace.

Helen has been instrumental in blogging for NewsOK.com. And she has been a faithful blogger. Then she became a faithful podcaster. All the while, very enthusiastic. And let’s face it, we all encounter enough haters in life. It’s cool when someone just has fun with work. Makes it NOT seem like work. And that’s cool.

So Helen and I got to emailing last week, and she had several good ideas. Including a separate email blast for her listeners. And don’t laugh. She has over 6,000 on her Parties Extra! email list. So today, we fired out a second Parties Extra! email with her latest podcast. Jamie Davis, owner of Jamie’s Foods in Casady Square, joined Helen in the podcast studios, and here it is.
