LL:REM: Global Insights 3 reminder
A reminder about Global Insights 3. Screening this Friday (6:30 pm) Public Lecture Theatre, Old Arts Building, University of Melbourne. Global Insights 3 is a collection of short films about grassroots struggles for democracy, sovereignty, human rights and the environment. Through examples from the Asia-Pacific region (including Australia), it illustrates how governments and huge corporations collude to claim land, exploiting the natural resources and people of the land for profit. The Australian government and Australian-based multinationals are clearly shown to be involved in the military aggression that is often necessary to back up this resource-grabbing. Global Insights draws strongly from grassroots video projects which have sprung up around the world as video production has become cheaper and more accessable. Direct voices from the affected communities and activists are heard. Global Insights is a community-based volunteer production. The details for the night are: Friday 8th October Food and Drink from 6.30 pm (screening 7:00 pm) Public Lecture Theatre, Old Arts Building, University of Melbourne Tickets are $7 and $9 and are available from Friends of the Earth (9419 8700), SKA TV (9663 6976) and 3CR (4919 8377). Unfortunately, due to previous sell-outs, we will not be able to place tickets on hold. -- http://www.accessnews.skatv.org.au email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] phone (61) 3 9663 6976 fax (61) 3 9662 9106 mail to: SKA TV p.o box 1252 st kilda sth, 3182 victoria, australia -- -- Leftlink - Australia's Broad Left Mailing List mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.alexia.net.au/~www/mhutton/index.html Sponsored by Melbourne's New International Bookshop Subscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Body=subscribe%20leftlink Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Body=unsubscribe%20leftlink
LL:INFO: SKA TV Training Project
* Looking for free training and access to video production equipment? * Aged between 18 and 26? * Living or working within the electorate of Melbourne Ports? If you answered yes to these questions, then SKA TV is looking for you. SKA TV has recently received funding from the Federal Government's Federation Community Projects Program to conduct video production training with young people who live or work within the Melbourne Ports area. 10 people aged between 18 and 26 will have the opportunity to work with SKA TV in the production of a 52 minute documentary focussing on community concerns and aspirations. The project will create a framework to look at how the Melbourne Ports area has changed over the past one hundred years - how events such as migration, building regulation, and changes to indigenous, workers and women's rights have shaped the community into what it is today. Working with experienced trainers, the group will develop their own objectives and context for the documentary, which must encompass issues of federation, national identity and political change. SKA TV's training programs are distinct from other video production courses in that they focus on a means for widening the communication of issues, rather than being solely about learning a technical skill. We don't just make television about communities, but actively encourage communities to seek exposure through the media to find productive means of being heard.

LL:DDV: SKA TV - Oakdale CFMEU doco
OAKDALE 6.3 MILLION reasons to belong to the UNION Screening 8.00 PM Monday March 6th FREE @ The Builders Arms Hotel (gerturde st fitzroy) and on Channel 31 Melbourne, same time SYNOPSIS: On the 9th of June 1999, 125 underground coal miners at the Oakdale Colliery, West of Sydney, were told that the mine was closing and there was no money to pay them the $6.3 million in entitlements they were owed. Some with almost 40 years service at the mine wwere owed up to $100.000. Most of the miners were family men with mortgages who, without a job and robbed of their entitlements, faced ruin. This 24 minute video records the development of the Oakdale campaign from the first day and the magnificent role played by the rank and file Oakdale workers and their families. It highlights the strong national community campaign mounted by their Union, the Construction Forestry Mining and Energy Union (CFMEU). The CFMEU, with the support of the Australian trade union movement, went head to head with a hostile conservative Federal Government for nine weeks before a national coal strike and widespread public anger, forced the Govenment into a dramatic backflip and the payment of the entire $6.3 million to the Oakdale miners. With up to 20.000 Australian workers robbed of similar benefits every year, the Oakdale campaign also forced a commitment from the Federal Government to finally introduce a national employees entitlements protection scheme. While the Government is looking at a minimal scheme, the CFMEU asserts that no Australian worker should have to settle for less than the Oakdale miners Won - every cent of their entitlements. -- http://www.accessnews.skatv.org.au email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] phone (61) 3 9663 6976 fax (61) 3 9662 9106 mail to: SKA TV p.o box 1252 st kilda sth, 3182 victoria, australia -- LL.VC -- Leftlink - Australia's Broad Left Mailing List mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.alexia.net.au/~www/mhutton/index.html Sponsored by Melbourne's New International Bookshop Subscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Body=subscribe%20leftlink Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Body=unsubscribe%20leftlink
