thanks jake :)
i don't think i'm going to be able to get to montreal this year but i'm
sure there will be some great women (& great men too) there again, &
i'll encourage other women thru my networks.

Helen,
I'm awfully sorry to hear that. Of course this was absolutely
unintentional, and I admit that I should have watched out for that not
to happen. I assure you that it will not be the case in the next LGM.
(given that there will be women to film ;)

hi jake,
well done on the film, nice to remember the event& also the locality in
brussels :)
i want to comment on the almost complete absence of women from the film. i'm
sure this was not intentional,& i appreciate that the video is your
individual perspective of the event rather than attempting to be
representative. but it's disappointing that it perpetuates the image of open
source as a boy's club. i know that many of you on this list don't percieve
this as a problem; but i do. the women who attended, presented and did a
significant amount of the organising of LGM have been excluded from the only
publicly-available video documentation, giving the message to the outside
world that only men are involved in LGM.
unfortunately i don't have the resources to make a video from my
perspective; but i hope that this is something to think about for next time.

Hey guys,
I just finished editing "Reclaim your tools", a short film about the
Libre Graphics Meeting 2010 in Brussels.
Here is the link: http://vimeo.com/18568225
All the filming and editing as well as the music was done by myself.
The movie is just some two and a half minutes, but I believe it might
be a useful marketing tool for LGM.
What I'm especially proud of is that everything you can see was done a
HUNDRED PERCENT using opensource software! (minus camera firmware I
suppose, haha)
Feel free to share the movie where ever you want! The only thing I'm
asking for is that you include my name.
As I count film-making to graphics, I feel that open source video
editing software should be a part of the LGM conference. Thus, I'd be
more than happy to have a short talk about the film at the next LGM. I
would present my workflow as well as point out areas where improvement
is possible (and sometimes really necessary) compared to closed
source, commercial software, which I've been using for a longer time.
What do you guys think about that?
I really hope you'll enjoy it just as much as I enjoyed making it!
Can't wait to hear your comments!
