Camera work.

If this got up and running would the club lose money from people not attending and taking the cheaper option of watching it on DVD or on line ?

Might be a risk but if you dont make it avail ible until monday after game it should be minimal.

If anyone wants to carry this forward then I'd be more than happy to share this. A lot of this comes down to time; existing staff have little of it, and if you get other people in to do a full-time job creating video content, you're effectively wiping out the money you make unless you can make more than £15k.

HT, does the £15k refer to annual costs to set up such an operation? If so that is a low cost option.

Posters on here have put a lot of ideas forward to create a great opportunity it would be such a shame if the club/supporters that have these skills cannot get this sorted for next season.

I liked the comment about extending it to cover away games.

That's just the salary of a full-time member of stuff to come into the Media team and do all this stuff. It's a full time job in itself and I'd say requires someone with experience putting together quality content.

There wont be many people with the skills to do a full time job, who would do it for £15k ????

There's more people with editing skills without a job in the field than ones in it, it wouldn't just be the 15k for them - the experience on the CV works wonders.

So, to price it up and where money could come from:

Editor = £15k p/a
Cameras x3 = ~£2040 (sponsorship can cover this)
A good editing PC = £700-£1000 (could approach Gibson Computers or someone like it here and again go the sponsorship route, if not it comes out of the subscriptions)
Website setup + servers = ????

So you're looking at about 18.5k-19k for the first year, take away what sponsors can contribute and sell in-content ads to further subsidies the content, 1000 subs @ £60 each is £60k too, that's not too bad at all.

No. And if a job's worth doing...
