WELCOME

Hi, and welcome to the Cowhorse Videography blog!

The name is new, the face behind it is not. (Don't be rude!)

I started webcasting back in 2008, and have continued to webcast and video working horse events since.

My philosophy then, as now, was to use the power of video to promote equine events and disciplines. My work has always been free to watch, and as far as replays go, will stay that way.

I'd like to think that if I've achieved nothing else to date, I've shown the industries concerned that their members could, and should, be offered more at no extra cost to them, and maybe a few other sites have lifted their games also.

Anyway, new name, new site (Thanks to Caroline from http://cowhorse.com.au/), but the same drive to promote equine sports in the best way I know, by harnessing the power of video and webcasting.

Cheers for now

Neil

Futurity Wrap Up

So, yet another Futurity is over, all results being available elsewhere, I'll not go in to those!
The webcast was very successful, following a few problems with screen sizes on the first day, I believe that the quality of both audio and video was very good.
I've had several encouraging comments, and I'd like to thank those of you who chose to view it. The numbers were down on previous years owing I guess to the Pay per View format, although not considerably.
Unfortunately, via direct and indirect feedback, I've heard the suggestion that "Jonesy sucked us in doing the first few years as free viewing, and is now trying to make some money at our expense"

Those of you that know me, and know what I've done over the past few years, know that this couldn't be further from the truth.

Those of you that don't know me, and maybe have thought along these lines, if only to yourself, should maybe take the time to research why it was a Pay per View. You could ask someone who knows me, or maybe even ask the NCHA directors themselves.

I'm not getting in to politics, and I certainly don't want to bag the NCHA in any way, but I'll be damned if I will take these types of comments for doing what I thought was the right thing to do.

Anyway, thanks again to those who supported me, and congratulations to all involved in this years Futurity, it was truly a great show, and a great experience.

Cheers
Neil
