How to Make Web Videos from Your Backpack
Web video star Brett Rounsaville probably has the perfect job skills given the current economic climate he knows how to hunt and gather and live off the land. As Amtrekker Rounsaville has spent the last year living out of a backpack, sleeping on couches and park benches, and capturing on video his efforts to complete a list of 50 cool things like hang gliding, riding an ostrich and creating a crop circle. His list is nearly finished and you can watch him catch a firefly, see a freak show or hike to the bottom of the Grand Canyon on his site Amtrekker.com. He shoots, edits and uploads the videos all from a small backpack. In the New Media Minute, youll learn how hes pulled off the editing, posting and community-building for his Web series while living the nomads life.
