The alternative reporting of the G8 protests 2007 in Heiligendamm







During the protests, demonstrations and blockades around Heiligendamm and Rostock the video website G8-TV provided up-to-date reporting to a wide counter publicity. All over the world people watched the live-broadcast and the individual videoclips. The videoclips are now available on a double DVD.

In the run up to the protests against the G8 summit, setting up a video platform had become a temporary focus of the German videoactivism network, a network of individuals and video collectives. As a result the website G8-TV was set up and used by video activists from all over the world which were at the Baltic sea to report about the protests. G8-TV was a platform for themes and ideologies which are normally not covered by the mass media.

During the protests from June 2nd – 8th 2007 G8-TV had about 40.000 visitors each day. Besides direct video viewing and a daily life broadcast, the clips and broadcasts were also offered as download.

G8 TV was seriously impressive, i'm more than happy to fork out for the DVD.

Well done to the people behind it, it was utterly groundbreaking, simple as that.
