点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Through an examination of the work of Amber during the 1980s and early 1990s, the research programme will explore the role played by the Workshop Declaration and Channel 4 funding in enabling the wider distribution of community, radical and independent film and video during the 1980s. The research will also examine how/to what extent Workshop Movement models of production and distribution, aimed at giving local communities and their interests a (media) voice, are now being drawn into contemporary online delivery via Amber's Heritage Lottery funded project which aims to extend access to their collections.
