Two Great IP TV Publishers

I found these two over at Brightcove. One is from Brian Storm the other Daniel Myrick, co-creator of the Blair Witch Project.
Myrick now runs Gearhead picture, producers of The Strand (see below). They have a new movie in production and to find out more go here or visit the blog.
THE STRAND is one of the first live-action, independently produced; narrative episodic shows intended specifically for the web - well at least from a renowened cinema figure. The pilot webisode can be viewed at www.strandvenice.com , free of charge. Audiences will be able to watch subsequent webisodes at $.99 each. Myrick fillmed 50 hours of video in 9 days on Venice Beach, and made a web series out of it. This is one of cinema's great innovators so well worth a look.
Mediastorm is a multiproject site hosted by Brightcove. Never Coming Home is about losing loved ones in Iraq, Chernobyl Legacy about children and their long term suffering in Chernobyl, It Ain't Television…. It's Brain Surgery, is about an operation for Parkinson's Disease. This is old fashioned issue programming, the kind we thought we might not see much of in future, available on a PC near you.
