Partners

Beyond Tv will be working with a wide range of partners. One of our principle roles is to use the knowledge base of the undercurrents organisation in order to put relevant groups in touch with each other. Have a look at the different types of partners we'll be working with.

Campaign Partners: Beyond TV ideally suits groups of active campaigners who have good traditional networking skills. However, they probably don't have time to organise video screenings and they may lack internet-specific outreach techniques.

Media Partners: Beyond TV aims to be an exciting new outlet for independent film makers and audio journalists. Both the Festival and the Internet are projects with a huge scope for reaching receptive audiences. Putting the video features on the internet allows them to be viewed cost-free by a worldwide audience.

Internet Partners: Our internet partners are either technical angels who have provided up with technical support, server space etc, or sites who link to us.

Screening Partners: Beyond Tv will maintain the network of screening partners built up by Undercurrents. We need a regular supply of features for the Festival. We can supply these to other screeners.

Independent Media Partners: Independent Media is a rapidly eroding concept. It should be the job of media to keep an eye on corporations and the government. In the past Media used to to try to ensure they worked for the good of the public. Well that's what we were always told anyway. Our message to our media partners is Keep up the Fight for your Full Editorial Control! If you can't get your message on the coroporate or government sanctioned media - then network it to mass audience through festivals and the internet.

Internet Partners

Internet Partners: Our Internet partners will share our general aims [save the planet etc.]but their site may not be specifically focused on Social Justice and Environmental issues. We hope to attract a wide range of internet partners who will be happy to help a site like Beyondtv.org which has a more independent/ "underground" range of news, projects and creative work.

Our internet partners are either helping us host our features or they're increasing our Web presence and thus the number of visitors to our site, by linking to us from a prominent position on their web pages.By aiding us in these ways, our internet partners will help us achieve the following objectives.

To increase the profile of media features promoting positive social change.
To allow internet users a greater choice of information sources. To spread the message "Don't just drink from the mainstream!"
To use the internet to raise awareness of societal problems, to inspire action which improves the situation and to to follow this up with information, contacts and other resources.

Screening Partners

Diverse Screenings: One of the exciting things about being involved in a project like this is getting in touch with other like minded people on the same mission. Get in touch if you want to show some of these features. You may want to organise a formal screening and discussion. Maybe you're a VJ wanting some inspirational footage for your set. Maybe there's a projector down your local pub. What ever way you want to get our programming out to people, we'd like to support you. Click the button -

Undercurrents Screening Network: Undercurrents built up an impressive network of screeners when the alternative news video was being produced. Networking features using this web site- we will be able to supply those interested in organising regular sceenings with the features being screened at the Undercurrents Beyond TV travelling film festival.

Diverse Campaigns

Beyond TV and our production partners produce video and audio features in collaboration with diverse campaign groups. Together we add a bit of multimedia savvy to their Internet presentations.

Example - Rising Tide: www.risingtide.org.uk - a grassroots network building national resistance against climate change. BeyondTV.org is providing multi-media support on their UK tour. A collaboration of undercurrents and spanner in the works produced a video feature about the climate change conference in Den Haague. We've been creating the website here at beyondtv.org with the help of the Undercurrents foundation training -
