26 seconds of booze (or an early shot with the MinoHD)

Sample Booze Video

I thought what better to use for a first still life then my liquor cabinet. And while it’s no Russu bar, it serves it purpose for holding my near and dear whiskey’s (that’s Scotch, Mash and Rye), along with other assorted choice beverages.

Also you’ve got low light, dark colors, glass reflecting some light, etc. so a pretty good test environment to check out the video. And wait for the load, I don’t have the fastest server and it’s 33MB, remember it’s HD

But more important is the 26 seconds of HD video from a $200 camera. Sure it’s a bit grainy but it smaller although thicker then my iPhone. I’ll be playing with this over the next couple of days so look for shots from the family Thanksgiving!

You’ll see it first on Hulu.

Posted by Chris under Broadband, Flash, TV

As first reported (or first I saw it) by TechCrunch and also on the Hulu blog, you’ll be able to see many of the fall premier shows first on Hulu. As the announced today, Tuesday that its Fall Premiere Lineup, which over the next seven weeks, will be the place to find season premieres of Prison Break, Bones, House, Heroes, The Office and 30 Rock.

To further build hype for Hulu (and the new shows), Hulu  will have the season debuts of Knight Rider, Lipstick Jungle, Chuck, Life and 30 Rock a full week before they’re broadcast on TV.

In what I see as a very smart move the networks have decided to take a plunge into changing their business model a bit and embrace the online space a bit more.

And if you are really Jonesing for your fall TV, get a full lineup of Hulu coverage over the next seven weeks, head over to its Fall Premiere Lineup page.
