[imc-auckland-video] Other short items- bottom trawling campaign greenpeace

[Kim Mazur]

Also, Ant says Greenpeace have a short video clip of the current BOTTOM
TRAWLING campaign that they are working on that the Rainbow Warrior team
recently went into the Pacific ocean to campaign on so that's local and
current and short. It's good if the clips are given a context in terms
of "What Can I do?" as an audience member. Meaning, some clips can leave
one feeling depressed about the state of the world or plight of a
peoples without some direct means of a positive contribution to change
things offered. Some are conversely, inspiring because you see activists
"taking action." 

Another option is something a student at MIT at John's school has
produced which is called "OTARA TV" which I am trying to track down and
find out more about.

If it helps, Harry Cording said he could MC the evening again - he's
just need to be briefed about what to say about which pieces Geraldene.

Chloe - can I drop off Oceania News reel for you to preview as well? (Is
that ok with you G?) 

Cheers, Kim

Have just chatted off loop to Kim

The hikoi is talking up my weekend 'free time', but I could dash in to
introduce and contextualise the east timor and newsreal pieces; Debbie,
could do foie gras; and Kim, Outfoxed?

I think Chloe's programming breakdown would work best - the other option
of breaking part way through Outfoxed might run the risk of a)
disrupting focus on the argument, and b) is less than ideal from a
maker's perspective
