Community creates narratives in Jazz-festival


Video is a test with the MoViE and it was was conducted in summer 2008 during the Pori Jazz Festival. The most popular concerts at the event are major mass events attended by tens of thousands of people. They are held in a big field, people spend hours at the concerts listening to music, jamming, eating and drinking. The picnic concerts attract a wide range of visitors, including numerous large groups of friends and families.


The aim of the test was to see how a larger group of people would video film a major mass event with a cell phone, from their own perspectives. By delimiting the themes of the videos, the objective was to come up with a group of short clips featuring different perspectives on people arriving on the festival scene, coming to the concert site, finding a picnic place, jamming, leaving and continuing the party afterwards.
