....One of the Getvicom's envisions is to provide people with the most updated and detailed information on tourist attractions
....all around the world.
....It could be a beautiful breathtaking scenery at one point, but what we really appreciate is detailed and most up-to-the-minute
....information. For example, it could be great for you to videotape the Eiffel tower, but wouldn't you want to know the subway
....system in Paris or even a little kiosk at the corner of the Eiffel tower if you were to take off to Paris?
....This kind of information will be cherished by would-be travelers for sure.
....To be short, any contents would be fine as long as they are usable by others.
 
....Anything would do. It could be 6mm, 8mm, or VHS tape as long as they are edited in the 5 minutes length along with text info.
....If you send us those tapes, we can easily upload them.
....But it you want to send us unedited tapes, you will have to pay for the editing job.
....Or we have information of where you can do the editing, so contact us for more information.
....You can upload your video clips following directions described below
.... 1. You can edit your video clips by yourself and upload them. You will need editing device and capture board.
.... 2. You can also send us the edited project along with text. Still, you will have to edit on your own.
.... 3. Or you can ask other professionals to edit your work and then send it to us or upload it.
 
....Basically it should be less than 1 year old. But it there has not been much change, you can still use the clip.
....For further information, please contact Getvicom in advance.
 
....At the clip window bottom, there is 'view in stand alone player'. You click on this button, then windows media stand alone
....player will come up. On the player, you can adjust the size of the window.
....But please notice. If you enlarge the window too much, it will degenerate the quality of picture.
....This is because the current internet data transfer technology is limited so that it is not capable of transmitting certain bytes
....at a time.
 
....Getvicom is specialized in travel-related movie clip information.
....Thus, your upload will be put to a hold if is just text information
 
....We don't, but you have the list of video editing studios. Contact us to find out one nearest you.
....Just for the future reference, editing facilities comprise the linear editor, digital editor, motion picture capture board,
....all on high-end computer equipped with suitable software such as adobe premier 5.0. Refer to our video columnist's
....message board for further information. .
 
....No. We charge nothing on you uploading your files.
....On the contrary, we share out profits with you in proportion to the profits which your information make us
 
....One of the buzzwords in 21th century is prosumer(combination of producer and consumer).
....This means there is no clear demarcation between people who produce and people who consume.
....Usually with companies like AOL, not everyone can participate in the site building so there is a clear line between people
....who provide information and who use it. On Getvicom, however, you do not have to be a specialist in any field.
....You simply upload your travel-related information and sell it right away.
....To be short, it is much more straightforward for you to actively engage in the community on Getvicom than on any other
....platforms..
 
....It is temporary policy yet.
....We want to share the 30% profits with people who have uploaded video clips when those profits are made by their clips.
....Our local partner gets 20% of the clip sales when those clips have been uploaded by their local people.
....Our local partner gets 20% of the clip sales when those clips are purchased by their local people.
....Getvicom gets 30% of the sales. Your uploaded files can be purchased by anyone with the internet connection no matter
....where they are.
....Thus, our local partners can benefit from the service sales made on Getvicom.
....Getvicom also makes sure to share its profits with its partners to encourage continuous promotion and service update
....such as translation of information on our partners' side. It is the best time now for you to join us.
 
....You have to understand it is a very difficult task to price video clips. Our general policies are as follows..
.....1. Does the clip have the latest information?
.....2. Does the clip have unique perspective and contents?
.....3. Is the clip sophisticated and accompanied by detailed text information?
.....4. Is the clip longer than 3 minutes?
.....5. Does the clip have practical information? (Or just the display of scenic view?)
....All the clips will be priced between 300 won and 1000 won in Korean currency based on above 5 criteria.
....Still, you can call the price at which you want your clips to be sold when uploading. We will respect your opinion.
 
....Usually clips last for 2 years. Since you hold the copyright of your clips and Getvicom acts only as an agency,
....if there is no objection from either side your clip will be displayed 1 year more automatically.
....But things get changed rapidly, so it is necessary for us to stop servicing your clip if it is outdated.
....Getvicom deletes your clip only after it notifies you.
 
....Obviously, the owner of clip is uploader. Getvicom, however, holds the sales right for 2 years which starts from the date of
....your upload. With no objection, Getvicom will automatically hold the sales right 1 year more.
 
....Currently the most suitable size is 350x330. We decided on this size after the consideration of the current on-line data transfer
....and computer performance.
....The chances are that, however, we will be able to enlarge the size when more advanced technologies become available.
 
....Of course. We can edit your work if that's what you want. There is a service fee, however.
....We charge 50,000 won for 5 minute clip. When you send us your tape, make sure to include shipping and handling fee(this is
....not decided yet). You can expect your tape back normally in 15 to 20 days.
 
....One of the misunderstandings people have is that Getvicom buys clips from you and resell it to people around the earth.
....This is not what Getvicom does. Getvicom provides the platform where you can sell or buy travel-related information so it is
....just an agency. Also we work very hard to make Getvicom known more widely so that more people will get to meet your
....information and clips. Some say it is then marketing. We guess it is right answer.
 
....There should be a separate video receiving board to hook up your camcorder to your computer.
....Ospray 100, 200, and many other domestic brands belong to this board.
....The price range is from 200,000 won to 400,000 won, but they can only capture video signals. You will need much more
....sophisticated device such as RT2000 to do the real editing, but this costs about thousands of dollars.
....Hopefully, technological progress will push down the price of editing equipments and rumor has it that upcoming Windows
....me is loaded with video editing power. So keep your fingers crossed.
 
....We think the ideal composition of information is 60% of clip and 40% of text. If it is hard to be exact on text information or it is
....hard to make the exact text info, you have to provide at least the general information on the country or area where you have
....videotaped your clip. If you want to sell your work, it must satisfy our criteria. If you cannot find a way to do it,
....fax or email the text to us. We will add your text later.
 
....Yes. We charge 50,000 won on each 5 minute clip for editing. Our promotion period of giving away 30,000 won to each video
....clip ended last July. Since that promotion period already ended, you will have to pay for editing.
....But if you want, we can find the video editing studio which is nearest you. Email us or give us a call to find out more..
 
....We do not loan out camcorders. But we have a list of companies who do that. Email us anytime for more information.
