What's
the point of Video Nation? |
It's
simple - to enable you to produce a short video for the web.
. Video Nation reflects everyday life
across the UK in all its rich diversity.
We
do, but Video Nation hands over control to you. If you are unhappy
about a finished video, then it just doesn't get shown. That way
you are free to shoot first, decide later.
I've
never used a camcorder - does that matter? |
No
- and you don't have to be technically minded either. A local production
team will provide all the training and advice you need to film successfully.
What
will happen to my recordings? |
Your
tape may be edited into a short video and shown on your local website,
and may in turn be featured on this website, but only once you've
agreed to the final version. If you change your mind about a video
later on, we'll take it down as soon as possible.
We
use streaming technology, which means the videos can't be downloaded
or kept by users. Videos are also sometimes shown on TV, but we'll
ask you beforehand and understand if you don't want it to be shown.
It's
an opportunity to share your views and experiences with others,
to talk directly to both local and national audiences and to add
your videos to the growing online archive of everyday life.

don't live in the Birmingham area but I still want to take part
