watching the ratings

December 3, 2010

Arms Race is currently 3 views away from reaching 4,000 views on YouTube so whilst waiting I thought I’d put together the various download figures for some of the interent projects I’m involved in, these figures are all up to 30th November 2010.

For Jack Steel we’ve had over 20,600 downloads of the episodes, over 3,000 downloads of Starblade Unsheathed (our “making of podcast”) and the Jack Steel Song has been downloaded 126 times!

The Spiffing Review Podcast which I do with Simon Jones has had over 6,000 downloads, which is not bad considering it’s just me and Simon waffling about films we’ve seen.

Still, we must be doing something right if people and listening to and watching what we’re doing!

Downloads ahoy!

February 23, 2010

So yesterday saw the single largest number of downloads from our Jellycast Podcast host, with over 1.6GB in 1 day.  It’s not huge in the grand scheme of things podcast-wise, but it’s still a good benchmark.

It’s a combination of Jack Steel and Spiffing Review downloads, but it’s nice to see we’re reaching an audience, at some point I believe we’ll get a mention or a retweet that will rocket us up the download charts, but until then it’s a case of biding our time.

Jack Steel Recording Update

October 20, 2009

We have now recorded all the main parts, there’s a couple of fx heavy voices to do but pretty much all the dialogue has been done. There are some excellent performances by all of our cast, and the new members are welcome additions. We will get it ready for Christmas? Who knows? There’s a lot of work ahead but we’ll do our best.

What’s It All About?

September 28, 2009

Hello reader (if there are any).

I decided finally to get a blog as I’m now doing more internet gubbins, and I thought this would be an ideal place to some of my musings and stuff.

My two main internet ventures (in a predominantly unpaid way) are:

Squadron Leader Jack Steel  The Starblade a podcast based very much on the Flash Gordon / Buck Rogers serials from the 1930s.  There’s much derring do and heroic goings on, and we recording the second batch of episodes this Sunday!

It’s A Wrap! Simon & Wayne’s Spiffing Movie Review a movie review podcast where Simon Jones and myself give our thoughts on some recent (and not so recent) movies – it’s still in its early stages, but I think we’re getting there.  I’ll probably add additional reviews and comments here after the episodes.

So, that’s it for now.

TTFN
