--This is the first ever comprehensive practical guide to human rights and video campaigning-- Pictures from Abu Ghraib showed the power of the amateur image to grab the world's attention. The Asian tsunami, caught on camcorder, brought home the reality of what had happened more than any news report ever could. Around the world the increasing availability and affordability of technology has fuelled the world of social justice video activism. Film-making -- at its best -- has the power to change the way people think, and create real social change, and now the tools to do it are more accessible than ever before. This book shows how activists and human rights campaigners can harness the power of images and stories for their own purposes -- it's a step-by-step guide to the handicam revolution. Written by leading video activists, and staff of the world-renowned human rights organization WITNESS, this practical handbook will appeal to experienced campaigners as well as aspiring video activists. It combines a comprehensive analysis of what's going on in this growing global field with a how-to primer to doing it yourself. Video for Change is packed with real-life stories from the fray, how-to guidance, and easy-to-use exercises. Clear and accessible, it provides a crash course in the basics of social justice video documentation and advocacy. The authors cover every aspect of filmmaking from technical guidance to strategic and ethical issues, making it indispensable for both amateur and professional filmmakers. Readers are shown how to plan, film, edit and distribute; they are shown how to adopt an effective strategy so that their video makes a difference. The book is unique in that it also covers the practical ethics and responsibilities of social justice video-work and offers a global range of real-life stories to learn from. The Preface is by WITNESS founder Peter Gabriel. "IT'S THE RARE IMAGE THAT CAN REALLY GRAB HOLD OF OUR INSIDES AND SAY, 'I GOT YOU AND YOU'LL NEVER BE THE SAME AGAIN'." Tim Robbins, Actor, Director, and WITNESS Advisory Committee member * First ever guide to using video in human rights and campaign work * Features a range of leading experts in the field * Covers both technical know-how and strategic reasons for using video * Real-life stories from a range of countries * Preface by Peter Gabriel
