Indyvideo network
Activist's network of videoactivists and our website were launched in
year 2002. Our group serves two main purposes: first aim - to teach
everyone who's willing (except fascists) how to shoot and edit video and
the second – to support civil campaigns by making media coverage.
Year 2003 – we started to work with russian Indymedia center – our video
reports regularly appear on their web resource. The problem of
transferring information, leaving behind official mass media is solved.
Year 2004 – videoactivists' tour "cinetrain" (kinopoezd): 10 russian
cities, 5000 km of winter roads, meetings with activists, screenings and
workshops - exploring the potential of electronic media which can be
used in local initiatives.
Year 2005 – mobile mediacenter at the radical ecological camp in
Otradniy (Samara region) is launched. By screening chronicles of the
ongoing campaign we've got everybody's attention.
Year 2006 - creating common mediaspace for political activists at the
G8 summit in Saint-Petersburg. We've launched a resource center to
create multimedia content and a website where activists could freely
upload their mobile content.
In these days we are trying to establish a network of anarchy
cinemaclubs in different cities. We started to translate documentaries
made by foreign activists. We've also released several DVDs with our
content.
