Claytorial

We help people understand complicated things!

Well, to start this off. I think it is best to know who CanWea is.

“CanWEA is the voice of the wind energy industry, actively promoting the responsible and sustainable growth of wind power throughout Canada. We serve as Canada’s leading source of credible information about wind energy and its social, economic and environmental benefits and effects.”

The conference itself was extremely informative, and it was an eye opening experience to see all the individuals and industries involved that make wind energy possible. But the major question remains, where do custom videos and multi-media come into all of this? One thing I did take notice of at the conference was the amount of complex graphs and endless text, but limited visually innovative media that gave an overview of wind energy. Such as, where it is currently established at the moment, amount of energy produced through a single turbine, how many homes/businesses it can power, and also the numerous positive but also negative points of wind energy.

The more interesting and humorous part of things was seeing peoples expressions when we introduced what we did. “You do what?” ( Confused facial expression followed). Though after explaining, our reception was tremendous. It made sense to branch out to your potential audience in a fashion that is easy to distribute and can explain a variety of angles in a short and simple Claytorial.

Bar camp is coming to Vancouver this weekend, and people that plan on attending better be ready to participate. This event will be filled with manic individuals eager to dive into the realms of web applications and open sourced technologies. If you plan on just being a spectator, you need not apply. All people will be blogging, social bookmarking, and just down right sharing amongst  one another.
