The end result is family and friends around the world can go to a website and watch the service live on their computer. If I can make this happen, it would make a lot of people happy.

Challenges:

1. Audio – what is the best way to capture the audio? I don’t believe there will be a lectern with a microphone so I need a good way to capture audio – especially from a distance.
2. Streaming – I’m planning on using ustream – but if there is a better service (free, or low cost) that works well with Apple products – please let me know.

Here’s what I have to work with:

1. I have one or more iPhones (4, 4S) and an iPad 2.
2. I’ve downloaded the ustream video streaming app and it worked fine for a 3-minute test. I worry about it working for an hour.
3. I have a Macbook Pro.

Any other equipment will have to be purchased at a national chain electronic store. No time for online shopping/shipping.

If you have hands-on experience, I’d love to hear from you. Please respond in the comments or email me

If you’re not familiar with Tom’s Learn to Draw series, get a cup of your favorite beverage and sit back for an hour or two.

The mission of KaboingTV is to provide an alternative channel for quality animation that serves both the cartoon fan, and the animation community of artists and writers.

The first series to premiere on KaboingTV  “Frog in a Suit, was created by Murray himself. He animated the pilot, while the next two episodes were animated by Jantze Studios. Joe Murray hopes to have more original animated content in the future, but that will depend on whether audiences take to the site.

Check out the second episode “Tricky Business” here:

Only wish there was more.
