wight365 streaming technologies

With broadband becoming widely available the internet is effectively speeding up. As a consequence, opportunities arise for greater use of streaming audio and video, aimed at an audience eager for new experiences. This revolution is affecting industry professionals, business people and consumers alike.

At wight365 we employ a range of technologies for distributing media-rich content to the Internet - some of them are demonstrated here on our media page and the subject is debated at great length throughout our site.

The next step for video on the web

Watching moving images is a passive activity and people will happily sit back and watch almost anything. That's why television has become so popular. The internet is fast on its way to replacing print as a medium due to the vast amount of text based information available on the world wide web. It's next conquest will be television. The technology is here today to offer streaming video right on a website. Thanks to youTube we've all got used to watching movies on our computers.

We offer you the opportunity to embed video seamlessly into your website. Not only do we have the technology built in to our websites to offer video content but we also have the necessary skills to produce, shoot and edit video content specific to your needs. Imagine appearing personally on your website to welcome your potential customers or allow them to see you demonstrate your latest product. Fancy design and slick copy can only go so far, what really engages people is, yes you guessed it, people.

'Skandia Cowes Week Live' - Podcasting

This series of podcasts derive from a three year period of streaming bands and musicians 'live' from the main stage at the Cowes Yacht Haven during Skandia Cowes Week. Every gig has been archived for just this kind of opportunity - podcasting represents the perfect opportunity for replaying some superb musical performances and reliving the atmosphere of probably the most famous regatta in the sailing calendar. Most of the bands are local to the Isle of Wight - but the quality and professionalism of their musicianship is legendary, not only to visitors at Skandia Cowes Week but to the rest of the Island as well.

Jerry Cahill live at wight365

Something different from our company archives this month.

This performance took place in our studio at wight365 and went live to the internet in May of last year. It is a micro-concert by guitar player / composer Jerry Cahill.

Jerry is a local Isle of Wight musician who now lives in the Exeter area and is well known on the festival circuit. He is a regular performer at Glastonbury. He performs in all musical genres but as a composer and performer of his own work a description of 'ambient-Indo-European-blues from Devon' comes close.
