MacVoices #23154: Road to Macstock - Allison Sheridan

MacVoices #23154: Road to Macstock - Allison Sheridan
Our next stop on the Road to Macstock Conference & Expo is a conversation with Allison Sheridan. We start out reviewing how a previous Road to Macstock session resulted in a change to Allison’s topic before trying to figure out what she will present this year. Along the way ideas were proposed, discussed, and rejected. She finally decided on a topic…or did she? This edition of MacVoices is brought to you by our Patreon supporters. Get access to the MacVoices Slack and MacVoices After Dark by joining in at Patreon.com/macvoices. Show Notes: Links: Screenflow Camtasia Allison’s Mind Map of iOS Guests: Allison Sheridan started podcasting in May of 2005, just 7 months after podcasting was invented, and her primary show, the NosillaCast has come out every week without missing an episode since late 2005. She now produces Chit Chat Across the Pond as a separate podcast that is also released weekly. NosillaCast and Chit Chat Across the Pond audio content and associated blog posts are created and edited by Allison. Allison has a Master’s of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering from UCLA with an emphasis in Kinematics. Her love of technology really took off when she and her husband Steve bought a 512K Mac in 1984. During industry events such as NAB, CES, Macworld, CSUN’s Assistive Technology Conference, and Mac Mania Cruises, Allison conducts interviews and presentations while NosillaCast videographer Steve Sheridan records, edits and produces them. Associated blog posts and social media presence are also managed by Steve. Her partner in crime on many of the shows is Bart Busschots who co-hosts Chit Chat Across the Pond every other week. He brings the propeller-beanie style episodes with his series Taming the Terminal and Programming By Stealth. Bart is a well informed, engaging instructor and he keeps detailed tutorial show notes over at bartbusschots.ie. In addition to hosting her own shows, Allison has been a guest on MacBreak Weekly, Daily Tech News Show, Clockwise, Cordkillers, SMR Podcast, Tech’s Message, Ritual Misery and The Productive Woman Podcast. She also creates video tutorials for ScreenCasts Online and is a freelance writer for SCO Magazine. She’s been a speaker on the Mac Geek Cruise, Macworld, BlogWorld & New Media Expo, Macstock, and at many Southern California Mac User Groups. Allison dedicates a considerable amount her time learning and talking about assistive technologies, especially for the blind. In her spare time she exercises like a demon. Without the support of Steve, none of this would be possible. Support:     Become a MacVoices Patron on Patreon     http://patreon.com/macvoices     Enjoy this episode?

At NAB in Las Vegas, we caught up with Studiobox, and there was a lot to catch up on. Co-Founder Ian Smith explains how they are expanding from just a production company to include a SAS option. They can still be hired to run the Studiobox-based production, but you can also do your own production. Soon, as the SAS model expands, you will be able to use your own equipment via their software. A fascinating example of a company born during the Pandemic and who are now evolving based on need and technology advancements. Kolide ensures only secure devices can access your cloud apps.

MacVoices #23148: NAB - AnyClip Uses AI To Find and Display Your Video Clips
At NAB in Las Vegas, Michael Kummer, Managing Director for AnyClip, discusses how AI is affecting video production, and how it is implemented in their service. By uploading your video to AnyClip, you get transcriptions and keywords allowing you to find anything in any clip for future reference and use. By hosting the video, you can play that specific clip through a simple embed code rather than having to re-download it.

Those services now include programatic advertising, the Libsyn Connect recording option, Libsyn Studio where you can build your podcast, and more. Rob and Chuck also talk about advertising’s response to podcasting and what, exactly, qualifies as a podcast. This edition of MacVoices is supported by MacVoices After Dark. What happens before and after the shows is uncensored, on-topic, off-topic, and always off the wall.
