G8 TV complete clip collection. (dvd) G8-TV: The grassroots coverage of the G8 protests in Heiligendamm

During the protests, demonstrations and blockades around Heiligendamm and Rostock in 2007 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.
