more about Videomaking across Europe

The Videomaking across Europe initiative was launched at EMN's Seen and Heard workshop in Dublin in May, 2007. 

The project needs to be VERY focused, the group must be well aware of the subject matter they are going to film, they should have an agreement on how long the video is going to be (we strongly advise not to exceed 10-15 minutes), what the main narrative thread is and which style and genre they intend to use (a character telling a story, a choral story told by numerous characters, a diary like narrative, a mockumentary, etc.), how they intend to structure it (visual language, voice over, interviews, music) and last but not least, what is the point they want to make with the video.

A specific requirements is to provide a report on the Videomaking across Europe trip. The Coach and/or anybody else in the group who wishes to contribute, should create a blog on www.empowermedia.tv and give a brief (ideally daily) account of the trip, it can be as witty and concise as they wish, but it has to appear on the web site!
