What is remote participatory film?

Participatory film actively involves a film's subjects as co-creators in the production process.

​We have developed a system of lean and agile remote methodologies to access research & film participants in hard to reach areas, and to gain data and video insights from the field. 

​With training, guidance, prompts and support from the remote production team, participants can

Story icon

Generate their own narratives

Mouth icon

Tell their own story in their own words

Camera Phone icon

Capture footage on their own device

Cloud icon

Upload content to a cloud drive

The production team then download and edit the footage into the desired film format. This style works best for short-form experiential video stories. 

In this way we get truly authentic stories from the field and insight into genuine lived experiences.
