It's that time of the year again web series fans. That's right the
2nd Annual Streamy Awards are being held this Sunday, April 11 in Los
Angeles, and some of our faves like The Bannen Way,Venice's
Crystal Chappell and Buppies' Tatyana
Ali are all up for awards!

 
On this webtastic episode of the Daytime Confidential Podcast, Luke
and Jamey chat with one of the most influential movers and shakers in
the fast-growing world of digital video production, Jeff Hayzlett, chief
marketing officer for Kodak, which is serving for the second year in a
row as the Official Imaging Sponsor of the Streamys.

 
The personable, cowboy corporate exec talks with the DC boys about
why it's been so important for Kodak to be on the forefront of
entertainment consumptions transition from analog to digital. He also
reveals that once again he will be tweeting live from the Streamys
telecast, as he did during the Oscars, and recalls how cool it was to
learn that even the likes of Mr. Bean was following his tweets.

 
Hayzlett dishes about some of TV and the web's biggest stars like How
I Met Your Mother's Neil Patrick Harris and One
Life to Live grad-turned Castle star Nathan
Fillion, whose Dr. Horrible's Sing-a-Long Blog proved a
game changer for web TV last year, and also reveals he will be
presenting the Streamy Award for Best Ensemble.

 
Hayzlett also previews Kodak's red hot digital video cameras, the
Zi8 pocket camera and the Kodak Playsport, both of which are serving as
the Official Digital Cameras for this year's Streamys. You'll definitely
want to listen in as he shares how cameras like these are being used by
budding, young creatives to make their own web soaps, comedies and talk
shows. Can Hayzlett convince someone as technologically challenged as
Jamey (who still uses an old-fashioned tape recorder on the red carpet)
that the Zi8 is even easy enough for him to use? You'll have to listen
to find out.
