Well, this is new.

So, I recently posted a video about The Horsemen, an aerobatics group, because they're making an appearance at an airshow I'll be attending.. (And because I made a promise, and it's long overdue, I'll be taking and posting pics of me in a Videosift t-shirt.)

 

Here's the kicker.

 

I got an email from someone, who called me by name, actually, i'll just post it.

 Hello Scott,

Thanks so much for sharing our James Horner Scores The Horsemen video with the Videosift community.  I wanted to let you know that we're also releasing several other exclusive videos such as honor the Blues - (link removed)

We also have an exclusive package digital download for the James Horner set at (Link Removed)

Thanks again, and happy viewing!

Let us know if you need anything!

Cheers!

 So.. yeah. Not too sure what to make of the fact that I got tracked down and thanked for posting their video, Guess any publicity is good publicity, especially free publicity.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

I've sometimes wondered if prominent Sifters get approached by video producers. I think it probably happens a fair bit- as VideoSift can be a good launchpad - I just don't hear about it usually. We don't have any rules around this - do you think we should?

Hah, not really.

I mean, in all honesty, I took their video without permission and posted it on a random website, if anything they're in their right to be able to contact the person who posted it.

I just find it weird that someone actually has, it took me completely off-guard that they did, least they were (seemingly) happy about it.
