I wanted to make a quick announcement and I will get into more details later.
For a variety of reasons, I have decided the the ELI Video Updates will come to an end. The ELI Video updates were originally meant to be periodic updates to the 2008 telephone interviews and 2009 videos Oscar and I recorded a few years back.
However, quite a lot of time has passed and over time, ELI has gotten its tentacles in way more things and topics than we ever could have imagined beyond the Getty Images Extortion Letters. Of course, our core interest is still on Getty Images Extortion Letters but any new visitor can plainly see forum discussions and blog posts have gone off in many directions. We talk about many subjects including copyright trolling, copyright extortions, significant legal cases/lawsuits, online combat strategies, etc.
Nearly all the recent "ELI Updates" videos never felt quite like "updates" anymore and I felt the title were a bit misleading.
Given these thoughts, this new "ELI Project" has been on my mind for awhile. Given a variety of circumstances, events, and observations, this ELI project will become more of a show format. It is in some ways a continuing evolution of the ELI Updates. But this new ELI project is also a conscious choice to take things in a very new and different direction and execute on a different strategy. Now that ELI has turned 4-years old, it seems appropriate to launch something new.
Robert Krausankas has agreed to join me as a co-host in this new show. Oscar is on vacation until next week, but I presume Oscar will also join me to be an occasional co-host of the new show. Last year, Oscar and I produced several episodes of his own limited series "Courtroom Strategy". You can find these episodes on TempestBroadcasting.com or here on this Vimeo channel: http://vimeo.com/channels/courtroom
The most exciting part of this new ELI project is we will actively solicit members of the ELI community and other guests to join Robert and I on the new show. The ELI community will have a great deal of influence on the content of many episodes. How that will happen will be kept quiet for the moment as I work through the details.
There will be times I will host the show "solo" but I expect there will be a guest or guest host joining me on most episodes.
I initially thought the show might be called "The ELI Project". The new working title is now called "The ELI Factor".
Here is the working version and teaser of the opening credits of "The ELI Factor".

I need to lay off on the kool-aid, seems our "fearless leader" has done roped me in....again..NO appears to be one of the biggest 2 letter words in the english language, and for some reason I can't seem to spit it out...

Great intro and video Matt.
Now we have to figure out how to green screen in the old talk show set that Kramer purchased on an episode of Seinfeld. :) ;)

Oscar is back from his summer vacation. I finally had a chance to tell him about the upcoming "ELI Factor" series. He loves the idea and is onboard to be on the show.
When Robert comes back, the scene will be set to move forward. Lots of ideas for upcoming episodes.

The is technically NOT the first episode. This is "Episode Zero" to bridge the ELI Video Updates and the new ELI Factor.
