Whilst meeting in the flesh may be tricky, meeting on the internet is now commonplace.

This pilot web portal is being developed by Insight to join together those people interested in participatory video, from practitioners, people who want to find out what it is all about to the communities themselves that have created such videos. It will host organisation and community pages, show films, and include discussion forums, but most importantly it will be there for the members! This is currently a pilot so please email rsleight[at]insightshare.org with any suggestions you may have! For a quick look at the Portal visit the links along the top of the page. To see Partner pages, Theme pages, look at the side panels.
