Peoples Voice Media: Recent Episodes
People's Voice Media
People’s Voice Media is a innovative social enterprise, based in Manchester, UK, that works in local communities. We believe in the power of social media to get communities talking to each other, to spread news, and to give everyone a voice and a platform from which to use that voice. For more information please visit our website http://peoples-voice-media.co.uk/
Community Reporters learn how to produce content with new social media tools such as blogs, podcasts and films and use everything from mobile phones to video cameras and webcams. Stories are distributed through our on-line networks and through other social network sites such as twitter and facebook etc.. meaning that those voices can be heard by anyone on-line. This video was made as part of a training session by People's Voice Media.
