Video Republic

Video Republic Picture

How young people are changing Europe

Production companies and broadcasters no longer hold a monopoly over moving-images - instead, a new theatre of public information has emerged. Spread across the internet, television, festivals and campaigns this emerging ‘Video Republic’ is a messy, alternative realm of video creation and exchange, dominated by young people. Who inhabits, shapes and regulates the Video Republic?

Helsinki workshop video

Posted by Peter Bradwell,Celia Hannon at 3:53pm on Friday, 29th February 2008
When Celia and I were in Helsinki for the week of 18-22 February,  we made a video of some of our initial thoughts on the process and research, and of our conversations with two of the young filmmakers and one of the facilitators.

Here's the short piece of film from our trip. (It's up on the DemosTV channel over at YouTube.)



If you have any thoughts, ideas or questions please do get in touch either through the comments below or emailing me or Celia. There is more information about the project here.

The workshops are part of the Stranger Festival project, which is our main case study. You can learn more about it here.
