EngageMedia will be running a video screening and an online distribution workshop as part of the OurMedia conference on community, alternative and citizen’s media in Sydney, April 9-13.
On Monday April 9 at 8pm we will be screening videos from the EngageMedia site at the Sidetrack Theatre – Addison Road Community Centre, Marrickville. Video screenings begin at the theatre from 2pm onwards.
