Mixform – Portfolio Websites for Filmmakers, Actors and Visual Artists

August 25th, 2010

What it does:
Professionally Designed Portfolios. Great for Actors, Filmmakers, and Visual Artists. Get a free account and create your website, nothing to install.

How it beats the competition:
Mixform uses the freemium business model. The difference between our pricing and everyone else’s is that our baseline service includes the ability to use your own custom domain name. The domain name can be purchased from any number of vendors and readily integrates with Mixform. This sets Mixform legions ahead of anyone else. The only remembrance of Mixform on your site is a small link in the footer, which is hardly noticeable. In fact, most custom designed sites have a similar link in its footer in recognition of the site designer.

Once you get past the initial shock of the ability to host a custom domain for free, Mixform has a great set of tools to quickly build your website. Our Ajax based pages allow you to upload, resize, and crop pictures, edit titles, summaries, biography, projects, albums, and a variety of different event types. The available sections are Home, News, Events, Projects, Videos, Resume, About, and a Contact form that sends mail straight to your email address. You can click and drag the sections around, putting things exactly where you want them. We also have a series of templates to choose from, all of which are professional grade. It’s easy to find one that will match your taste, and can be switched later if you like.

LayeredBrain – Monetize, enhance and analyze video content

November 18th, 2009

LayeredBrainlogoWith high speed Internet connections becoming widely available, the online video market is booming: 25 billion videos were viewed in September alone in the US, according to comScore statistics, twice as many as a year ago. This might get video-sharing site YouTube feeling all warm and cozy, dreaming about hitting break-even, but what about those people actually creating video content? When do they get to start seeing a profit? Romanian startup Brainient hopes to answer that question with its new video monetization platform,LayeredBrain, currently in beta testing.

LayeredBrain lets you add interactive elements to video content. For instance, if you have an iPod in your video, you can define a hotspot over it, attach a link to the product, and the link will automatically be converted to an affiliate link. The application supports around 7000 merchants and has access to over 65 million affiliate links so, unless you’re selling something really exotic, there’s a pretty good chance your product will be on that list. And if your videos feature the same product more than once, LayeredBrain will automatically detect and tag that product for you. The company’s developers are still playing with the detection technology, but they should have it in production within the next few months.

LayeredBrain also lets you create polls, cue points and chapter markers to guide viewers through the video, and add images or other elements on top of your video.
