Techville - Not just a tech show, it's tuned for TV

[TriniXaeno]

call me biased, but episode 2 shaping up to be much better than episode 1, lol.

I too was unimpressed by the ironman game but there may be people out there who would like it and we can't affrd to only cater to hard core gamers.

We have links with Anime Caribe so that may not be such a bad idea at all.

call me biased, but episode 2 shaping up to be much better than episode 1, lol.

That's what we aim for, improvement in every episode so keep the feedback coming.

Thanks again guys.

Ok I finally got time to upload it.

Techville Episode 2: ENJOY!

[TriniXaeno]

just commented on episode 2 in the Bankai thread. Well done.

What are the plans for the next episode? top secret business or you could reveal?

[AIDS]

Episode 3 aired yesterday (May 8th) on Gayelle and we paid homage to an old classic and it's newer incarnation, THE A-TEAM.

Plus we give you a look at the use of green screen in television in some shows that you might never expect.

All that and more in Techville episode 3.

And remember if you miss the episodes on Saturday night @ 7:30pm you can catch it again on Sundays @ 1pm or Mondays @ 5:30pm.

Keep it locked to Techville and remember it's more than just a tech show, it's tuned for TV!

Techville Episode 3: For your viewing pleasure.

So in our ever increasing effort to make the show more relevant to local audiences we are looking for a freelance game reviewer.

If you are interested send me a PM or you can send an email to techville@live.com

[AIDS]

Yeah I don't see why not. I will review your email and get back to you but if you have anything in mind feel free to suggest it.

My opinion:

Saw the first episode online and all I could say was "ugh". Dianna was thoroughly annoying with her use of what word "rite". They both look as if they are trying really hard to either be good...or make someone laugh, which are two things that should come naturally. Idk maybe after years of Xplay and other shows like that I have certain expectations from tech/gaming shows. May I ask how they were chosen to do this job? Were there screenings/auditions?

It hardly even seems as if they know about the stuff thats playing in the clips, which kinda brings me to content. As far as I've seen its just a bunch of video with two annoying people as unnecessary transitions. I would really hope that they have a background or atleast a serious interest in tech stuff so that they can speak more articulately on whatever topic is at hand.

The set.Kinda cool but feels like something you'd see in a 30second tech splash while the news is on commercial break.

All in all, the idea has boundless potential if proper execution can be achieved. I hope you find something useful in what I just said.

Thanks for the feedback.

Dianna does use the word "right" a lot and we try to work it out of her dialogue as much as possible.
There were auditions and what we were looking for were people with interesting personalities that wouldn't bore the audience to death. They are new to TV however, and it is expected that there would be a learning curve in terms of some of the finer points of presenting. I remember when I first started watching Xplay Adam Sessler was a terrible actor and wasn't funny in the least so all I watched for were the actual videos themselves. That changed over time though.

Maurice and Dianna are both interested and involved in the tech industry but that is difficult to convey at times when trying to deliver dialogue in front of a camera.

The set is a work in progress as well but may not be significantly altered until season 2 as the look has already been established.

The time from concept to production was a relatively short one and we were unable to acquire significant feedback from the public ahead of time but that is exactly why we value your opinions now. Thanks again for your contribution and please let me know what you think as the series continues to grow.

[TriniXaeno]

yeah, they do lack "tech" authenticity.

If the showed was named anything else.....wouldn't be a problem.

But when you hear tech ville, you kind of expect some technical authorities bringing you up to speed on all the latest tech (which these two obviously are not)

That aside, I still think it's a great effort. Episode 2 is the best so far imo.

Thought I was on synergy for a moment with the full length worm dance vid in episode 3. lol

[AIDS]

Cool all sounds good. Will definitely look into it.

That facebook video......scary.....creeepy....on so many levels.

I see improvements....GJ

* TriniWyatt goes into Siskel and Ebert mode

Big fan of the prince so +1 for that.

I find the green screen segment was unnecessary and long. Didn't you guys go over a green screen piece in a recent episode?

yeah, the facebook video was more creepy than funny.

Not enough local tech content. We hearing more foreign opinion than a trini perspective. Maurice and Dianna have like 1% of the script delivery and 0% of the tech review. Just like intro to a clip and quips.

Still not quite sure how local artistes fit in with the tech ville theme. Seems a little out of place.

Local gamers, local tech enthusiasts, local tech stores, the tech behind music (like the piece with the two audio programs going head to head ), tech around the internet, review things like wimax (TSTT latest offering for mobile broadband) 3g/4g for phones on the island, etc....... but local artistes? Seems like that should be another program or on synergy maybe?

Dianna legs looked too skinny, tell the camera man to change up the angle or something, cause it didn't look so in the previous eps.

[AIDS]

As usual we appreciate the feedback and all your suggestions are being taken into consideration. We aim to please you our audience.

Thanks again for the support.

Episode 5 coming online tomorrow and it's a special episode from the M.K. Promotions car show in Mayaro.

All gas brains stay tuned for TV.
