Someone gave me a great idea for a story on Valencia. Valencia has traditionally been the food bowl of Spain, with much fine farming land around the city. Currently urban sprawl is encroaching much of this farmland. The suburb where I am staying is known for it's fruit and vegetable markets, so i hope to find a farmer and do a story on him/her, getting some shots out of a city for a change.

Talking about farming, it seems the supermarket model, where farmers sell goods cheap to supermarkets and supermarkets make the biggest profit margins, is the model being used for online video. There are now many travel video sites where lowly filmmakers can sell there films for tuppence.
