Being my first BEA I was very excited about attending. And, to have it here in NYC was a bonus! Next year it will be in LA, which I'm thrilled about as well.
Javitz Center is HUGE and full of people who care about books! Well, today at least!
Workshops on marketing, quanitifying marketing strategies, social networks, and many more topics were discussed. They have an African American and Latino pavillion this year which I am very interested in. REC TV has an African American channel and would love to be able to show more of those videos with other sites as content. It was great to see such a wonderful turn out for that topic.
I expect tomorrow will be even more busy with the exhibitors opening and additional interesting workshops to be presented.
Tomorrow I hope to find time to blog again and leave the information for the MySpace Books contact. So, check back later for more fun and facts!

NYC, BEA and News
Last minute meeting arrangements in New York during BEA are all that's left in preparation for this coming week.
COS will be gathering data about the future of the industry, meeting with the good folks at MySpace, stopping by to see clients and chat with publishers who have contacted us.
Being my first BEA experience, I'm not sure how much work I'll be able to add to this trip, but I hope to attend many conferences and learn what COS needs to gear up for next year. I'll bring media kits, sample DVDs, brochures and business cards. I'm ready and enthused about being in NYC!
The new videos have gone up on REC TV and more will be put up next week. Distribution will continue as normal while I'm away. Wayne is getting ready to upload several new videos! New Head of Production, Victoria Fraasa, will be organizing our new projects while all of the COS network celebrate 4 Telly Award wins!!
REC TV will undergo some renovations in June that will make it even more user-friendly with more original programs and book video!

With so many publishers, authors and industry leaders in one place, Sheila hopes to spend time identifying trends, new ideas and even more ways to effectively promote book video and reading!
Publishers have started calling asking to meet while Sheila is in NYC, so everyone at COS and REC are thrilled. The fact that publishers have taken such an interest in book television and book video is very encouraging!
If you're in NYC from May 30th to June 3rd let us know. We'll do lunch! LOL
