Hi everyone, This weekend I finally finished editing a nine-minute documentary short about my visit to the Liberian refugee camp in Buduburam, Ghana. In the video I visit a telecentre offering computer training to young Liberians, as well as a women's adult literacy support group. I've posted two versions of the video to my blog. The high-res version is 50 megabytes, while the low-res version is 20 megabytes. Both versions include text captions. http://www.andycarvin.com/archives/2005/11/refugees_the_li_1.html To view the high-res version, simply click on the picture or the link "video documentary." For the low res version, you'll have to cut and paste the URL included in the text. I could only link to one of the two versions; otherwise it would cause problems for users who subscribe to my videos via my RSS feed. Production notes: The video was shot on location in Buduburam, Ghana in July 2005. Video was captured using an eight megapixel Konica Minolta Dimage a-200 digital camera; audio was captured on an Olympus WS-200S handheld digital audio recorder. The captured files were uploaded to my G4 Mac laptop and edited with Final Cut Pro. Soundtrack includes music of Ghanaian drummer Obo Addy, used with permission of Alula Records. Video compressed to Quicktime using Final Cut Pro and the 3ivx codec. Total time: approximately 30 hours over three months. Contact information for both projects profiled in the video can be found at the end of the video. -- ----------------------------------- Andy Carvin Program Director EDC Center for Media & Community acarvin @ edc . org http://www.digitaldivide.net http://katrina05.blogspot.com Blog: http://www.andycarvin.com ----------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------- Please note: All LM_NET postings are protected by copyright law.
