  • “They cover topics for both beginners and professionals that you won’t find covered by other sites.”

    Thanks for visiting Web Video Chefs. We created this site because we love to produce videos and share our experiences and tricks. The Web Video Chefs are Chip Dizard and me, Amani Channel. My background is broadcast news, PR, social video, and video production. Dizard, is a web developer and technologist, who now teaches video editing.

    We actually met each other on YouTube way back in ’06/’07. Chip was producing community and political videos in Baltimore where he lived, and I was working at Black Family Channel in Atlanta, and looking for contributors for a citizen journalism show BFC was developing. I found Chip’s videos, and reached out. Everything grew from there.

    One of my most memorable moments is when Dizard got credentialed through My Urban Report to cover the 2008 inauguration of President Barack Obama. Talk about the power of social media!

    In 2010, we decided to build a community around video production tips and techniques. We launched WVC in February ’11. The site is really in BETA right now. We know it’s not perfect, but our goal is to help people who have questions. We really just want to share a little knowledge. We are developing classes right now so if you have a question, we got cha’ covered.

    At Web Video Chefs you’ll find weekly and some times daily video recipes that will help you produce videos and understand technology. If you have a question for us, ask!

    If you don’t want to miss any of the action and want access to exclusive interviews, and video training then you’ll probably want to become a Charter Member.

    You can always reach out to us @webvideochefs on Twitter, or @AmaniChannel or @chipdizard.

    But now, we gotta get back in the kitchen and cook up another recipe.

    We hope you enjoy!
