Remember
those late night Video Nation diaries on BBC2? Ordinary people recording
their lives and thoughts on camera?
Since 1993, more than 1200 Video Nation 'Shorts' have been shown on
TV creating a unique and diverse visual record of life in the 20th
Century.
Well Video Nation continues on the web, and we want you to share your
stories with us in our Video Nation section.
We're looking for people from all walks of life in Leicestershire
and Rutland to take part. You don't have to be a web wizard or a camcorder
king. You just need to be up for it. And we'll put you story on the
web.
How does it work?
Simple. We give you a camcorder, and some training on how to use it.
All you have to do is to remember to switch it on and give us an insight
into a part of your world. It can be about anything - as long it's
real life and tells us something about what makes you tick.
Who
edits the tapes?
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 the website,
once you've agreed 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.
What’s
in it for me?
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.
