The project's proposal is to turn video into a tool that will enable the expression of their identity, reflecting their vision about themselves and about the world.</div><div><br /></div><div>While providing the indigenous communities with video equipment, the project has stimulated image and information exchange among the nations. Initially the training of Indian video-makers was done village-by-village, providing records for their own use. Today, through national and regional workshops, they learn and discuss together ways to present their reality, for their own people and for the world. The documentaries develop issues that are considered important by their communities. The project's collection includes a series of documentaries produced by the team of trainers and by indigenous video-makers.</div><div><br /></div><blockquote style="margin: 0 0 0 40px; border: none; padding: 0px;"><div><div dir="ltr"><i>Its vision of using filmmaking and communication to empower indigenous communities has... gained the group wide acclaim, from humanitarian organizations, film critics, and scholars alike.&nbsp;</i></div></div><div><br /></div><div><div dir="ltr">- Zoe Graham, Visual Anthropology Review</div></div></blockquote><div><div><br /></div></div><div><br /></div><div><b>The collection contains the following series:</b></div><div><br /></div><div><b><a href="https://store.der.org/video-in-the-villages--video-in-the-villages-series-p973.aspx">Video in the Villages Series</a></b></div><div>The use of video by different communities.</div><div><br /></div><div><b><a href="https://store.der.org/video-in-the-villages-encounters-series-p944.aspx">Encounters Series</a></b></div><div>Encounters and interchange between nations that have met through video recording.</div><div><br /></div><div><b><a href="https://store.der.org/video-in-the-villages-rituals-series-p957.aspx">Rituals Series</a></b></div><div>A way of approaching ritual and cultural traditions in complicity with the Indians.</div><div><br /></div><div><b><a href="https://store.der.org/video-in-the-villages-indigenous-video-makers-series-p947.aspx">Indigenous Video-Makers Series</a></b></div><div>Documentaries produced during workshops.</div><div><br /></div><div><b><a href="https://store.der.org/video-in-the-villages-amazon-projects-series-p939.aspx">Amazon Projects Series</a></b></div><div>Environmental protection projects and innovative experiences of sustainable development in indigenous areas of the Amazon.</div><div><br /></div><div><b><a href="https://store.der.org/video-in-the-villages-conflicts-in-the-amazon-series-p941.aspx">Conflicts in the Amazon Series</a></b></div><div>Conflicts and sustainable development in indigenous areas.</div><div><br /></div><div><b><a href="https://store.der.org/video-in-the-villages-indians-in-brazil-series-p946.aspx">Indians in Brazil Series</a></b></div><div>A series of videos produced for the 'TV Escola' (TV School) of the Ministry of Education draw a picture of contemporary indigenous reality for college students.</div><div><br /></div><div><b><a href="https://store.der.org/video-in-the-villages-ashanika-villages-series-p940.aspx">Ashaninka Villages Series</a></b></div><div>Documentation of new sustainable development efforts in the Ashaninka villages of Acre, Brazil</div><br /><br />Visit <a href="https://store.der.org/valado-virginia-c804all.aspx">Valad&atilde;o, Virginia</a> to see additional products in this category.</div> https://store.der.org/video-in-the-villages--video-in-the-villages-series-p973.aspx Product973 Wed, 5 Sep 2018 11:07:00 GMT <div style="float:left"><a class="url" href="https://store.der.org/video-in-the-villages--video-in-the-villages-series-p973.aspx"><img src="//cdn.nexternal.com/der/images/vitv-series.jpg" alt="Video in the Villages: Video in the Villages series" border="0" hspace="3"></a></div><span class="riRssTitle"><a href="https://store.der.org/video-in-the-villages--video-in-the-villages-series-p973.aspx">Video in the Villages: Video in the Villages series</a></span><br><a href="https://store.der.org/video-in-the-villages--video-in-the-villages-series-p973.aspx">Buy Now:</a> <span color="#990000"><b>$2,195.00</b></span> <br /><br /><div><div>These films are proof of the power of video.
