Yixuan Zeng wrote an article about Ethical Filmmaking with Survivor Stories published on Color Congress‘s Medium.
Yixuan shared about watching survivor stories as a survivor themself, Re-Present Media’s work to discuss ethical filmmaking practices for working with survivors in our Centering Survivor Stories series, and the importance of providing solace and solidarity to survivors through stories created with thoughtful and intentional practices.
We are working with Yixuan to create the documentation for our Centering Survivor Stories series, which will cover the high-level themes and lessons learned from the sessions so that it can be circulated widely beyond the immediate workshop participants, while also protecting the privacy of participating individuals and the details of their films.
