Brightstorm is Coming!
Over the summer I did some work creating video math lessons that can be watched on a subscription basis. It’s called Brightstorm and I think it is pretty cool. Not only is it video content, but it is also trying to build a community of users who can connect. It’s initially marketed towards the US college bound market but I hope that it’ll go global in its audience soon!
The process was pretty amazing: professional camera crews, amazing office staff, great interns, and a fabulous setting. I am really excited about this concept: delivering high quality online video content to students who want it.
In the Small World Department: The production assistant in my studio said to me: “Are you the Mr. Hamada who used to teach at Rowland?” Yup, that’s right: after 8 years out of the country and almost 10 years since I taught him, Gilbert ended up going from my Geometry class as my student to my Brightstorm studio as my production assistant. Crazy…
If you’re interested in a beta account, go to the Brightstorm web site. Be sure to let them know you saw it here!
