571274 - Welcome to Fx 4 Beta Video

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Description

[Laura Mesa [:lmesa] [:lvmesa]]

We need a 1 minute video for the June 22nd Beta release. 

The video is a welcome to Firefox 4 beta and we want to use this opportunity to show the people working behind the features. 

8-10 enginners would be shown and we ask them to answer the question "what are you working on for Firefox 4?"

Then ask Aakash and Jinghua to then finish the video asking viewers to give us feedback and that we're listening to what they have to say.

Rainer is gone next week, so this will be tight.  Would it be possible to add the video the following week?

There is a competing project right now with Firefox Home (Caitlin) another option would be to drop that and focus on Fx4 beta stuff.

IMO, Firefox Home should take priority. There's a pretty non-trivial chance that the Firefox 4 beta will slip past the 22nd.

Spoke to Jay and he prioritized Beta over Home however also spoke to Rainer who thinks that both can be done as long as Laura gets everything lined up for a shooting tomorrow morning between 10am-noon.  We'll keep you posted if anything unexpected that changes this but for now it seems doable.

We're getting this posted in WebM format, not Theora, right?

We have all three versions--

the idea is WebM is first option, Theora 2nd, Mp4 3rd.
