[OccupyComms] Occupy UK Film idea

[OccupyBrighton-Info]

Hello all,

I am trying to set up a collaborative film project with the aim of 
creating a documentary about the Occupy movement in the UK.

Below you will find links to an outline of how I see the film being 
structured, which of course is open to discussion and change. In fact 
the aim is to make it representative of the movement as a whole within 
this country and the more input the better.

There are two reasons I think this will be a useful tool in our campaign 
to make things better.

1) It is a point of focus which will help us get to an end point and 
discussing/researching the film content will help pull ideas and refine 
them.
2) When finished it will be a great promotional tool along with a great 
way of presenting what we stand for to the general public.

My initial idea was to have an 'Occupy Cinema' day where we get local 
cinemas to show a collection of films that have covered some of the 
issues. Like "The Corporation", "Who killed the electric car" from the 
docu/film side along with some of the great mini-series that have been 
on BBC/C4 recently. Finishing off with the main feature, this film.

It could also be a money spinner to bring in cash to help better fund 
the organization as a whole.

I'm happy to lead the project, at least until someone more capable is 
found. My main strengths are editing/grading and post production stuff.

So what do you think, anyone up for it? If so maybe we should set up a 
mailing list somewhere.

Feel free to forward this to anyone else who might be interested.

behalf of the Occupy Brighton group.
