COMMUNITY VIDEO, PARTICIPATORY VIDEO, TRAINING AND EDUCATION

Roving Eye works with a pool of highly skilled filmmakers and educators who have broad experience of working with the arts in the community. Videos include campaigning, awareness raising and information videos; where possible we try to enable participants to make the film themselves with our support, by training them in video production.
