We’ve had a long and winding road as a contributor group, from a hastily assembled group of volunteers in 2012 to a dedicated group of WordPress and video enthusiasts today. Over that time we have worked in IRC, then Slack, as well as a few different P2, but that journey is over!
Starting now, this is our P2 and our new home for all things WordPress.tv. We’re still getting set up, but be sure to subscribe to this blog (in the sidebar) to follow all our updates. If your are interested in helping out, here are some of the areas we are working on now:
- Editing – WordCamps submit unprocessed video from their recent event, and we help edit that video to add titles, presentation slides, and other simple edits to get them ready for publication
- Moderating – Once a video is edited and submitted to WordPress.tv, our moderator group makes sure everything looks right, adds tags, categories, and other information, and then publishes it live to the site
- Captions/Subtitles – Once videos are published to WordPress.tv, we work to increase their accessibility with captions, and internationalize them by subtitling them into other languages.
Want to help? Why not drop by our weekly meeting in the #wptv channel in Community Slack and say hi. We meet every Thursday at 17:00 UTC and we’d love to have you join us. If you can’t make the meeting but still want to help? Feel free to ping either @jerrysarcastic or @roseapplemedia in the #wptv Slack channel
