About ZVideo
Z Video Productions, founded in 1998, was started as a way to bring Z Media Institute classes and lectures to others around the country. The first series of videos proved so popular, that we decided to expand the project. Some of Z’s staff took the free courses offered by our local cable access station. There we learned how to film in a studio setting, how to shoot in the field (covering local town meetings, band concerts, etc.), and how to get the best audio. We then invested in several video cameras, a portable lighting kit, microphones, and an editing program, Adobe Premiere 5.1.
Eventually, after months of preparing, we began filming other talks and events, even traveling to the World Social Forum in Brazil, Venezuela, and India. Recently, we decided to start producing documentaries as well. Our first two cover the occupied factories in Argentina and the exciting political developments in Venezuela, including Chavez’s Bolivarian revolution.As with other Z projects, we try to provide in-depth information and analysis to help activists, teachers, and writers in their work. Most of the videos we produce for sale run for well over an hour.Z Videos are available to be shown on cable access stations, in classrooms, and in public forums.For those who would like to submit videos for the ZVP catalog, send them to Z Video Productions, 18 Millfield Street, Woods Hole, MA 02543.
