Case Study in Applications Section

Hello fellow editors,

I propose adding a subsection titled "Case Study: Participatory Video for Cultural Preservation" under the "Applications" section. This will highlight how participatory video is used to:

Document traditional arts such as wayang kulit and gamelan music.
Empower communities to take control of their narratives while preserving their cultural heritage.

This addition will showcase participatory video’s potential in addressing cultural and social challenges, particularly in regions focused on cultural preservation.

Proposed New Section: Digital and Interactive Techniques

Hi everyone,

I propose adding a new section titled "Digital and Interactive Techniques in Participatory Video" to explore how digital tools have transformed participatory video practices. This section will:

Introduce Sandra Gaudenzi’s concept of the "living documentary," where participants and audiences can co-create narratives in real time.
Explain Madianou & Miller’s concept of "polymedia," which highlights how digital platforms enhance storytelling and audience engagement.

This addition will demonstrate how participatory video evolves with technology, enabling more dynamic and inclusive storytelling.

Supporting Sources: Gaudenzi (2013) and Madianou & Miller (2012).

Looking forward to your feedback! Seeisang (talk) 05:11, 14 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed Enhancements to the "Process" Section

Hello,

I propose expanding the "Process" section to include:

Training participants in video equipment.
Facilitating collaborative storytelling to define narrative goals.
Supporting community-led filming and editing processes. Additionally, I will address how facilitators balance power dynamics to ensure participants maintain narrative control.

This will provide a more comprehensive understanding of the participatory video process.
