I'm a independent filmmaker and also a translator.
-
I'm with Forum Lenteng with friends.
-
We create video projects, video workshop, media literacy.
-
If we're talking about the impact of what we've created
-
works that we have made
-
Right from the beginning, when we create the film we must think about that...
-
We have think about that, but a workshop focused on impact for our work, well we didn't have that yet.
-
Maybe we call it differently.
-
Before, in Forum Lenteng, we have this media literacy (program).
-
Media literacy is too broad.
-
And everybody has already talked about this.
-
Something like that.
-
Hello, my name is Muna Rif'atil Akhlaq.
-
I'm from the Qoryah Thoyibah Community Learning Center, Salatiga (Central Java, Indonesia).
-
There we are learning many skills of every sort that can benefit us.
-
And we created videos, but they are not long documentaries.
-
It's not like a long, well-made film.
-
In short, we've made this video which talks about
-
young people today.
-
We call it 'Lost Identity'.
-
In this video we tell a story about young people in this era who spend a lot of time on the Internet
-
rather than socialize with their community.
-
I'm Yuniatifa from Kebumen SMK 1 High School.
-
And I'm with Belum Bikin Production, it's my community.
-
The target of this film is all levels of society.
-
We didn't target only high schools, or government officials, but all levels in our society.
-
And actually this video provides new information to everyone or new knowledge to respect to local culture in your area.
-
I'm Ilun from Jakarta.
-
A freelancer filmmaker.
-
Fiction and documentary film.
-
I have produced many films for personal and social impact.
-
These videos highlight many issues such as human rights in 'Black Umbrella'.
-
-
-
So in 2011, we produced this video with a producer named Carolin Monteiro, that focuses on women
-
who brought about change in Indonesia.
-
We used two important subjects and the situation hasn't changed much until now.
-
We've followed the daily activities of these two subjects. After we finished production, this video gave us some important impact
-
which was quite strong for the subject matters themselves.
-
They used the video for advocacy.
-
And with this video, the subjects felt being represented, and they used it in their seminars.
-
They screened it and it became a powerful tool because it's visual.
-
And I've got several other films
-
which has a theme
-
that is close to us, corruption. And this is a fiction film
-
but based on true story.
-
Aand the government was also involved in this project.
-
As for the government, they felt that this short film can be an efective tool
-
for outreach to young people.
-
They can quickly grasp the visual language rather than discussion in a seminar.
-
So with this film, they also realized what they did before did not achieve a lot of outcomes.
-
For example, in the KPK (Anti-Graft Commission) film production about how education systems reproduced corruption.
-
The headmaster and all the students
-
worked together to figure out how to utilize some oportunity
-
to raise the book prices.
-
Then the mothers will raise the prices to their husbands.
-
Their husbands will the cheat in the office with their bosses.
-
So it's like producing a vicious circle at a smaller level. I tried to capture this and it's effective enough.
-
And we screened this video in several high schools and junior high schools.
-
They became more critical. So they realized that this kind of behavior is wrong.
-
And that they haven't cared about it for a long time.
