I can certainly help out if we want to keep in touch with Simpleshow Foundation.

Hi Shani,
I am not a videographer or a script writer, but I would like to help with this project in all ways I can. I can provide helping hands in transcribing and subtitling the video.

Hi, Floor.
So great to have the team support this! Loved everyone's ideas and really happy to collaborate with such a great bunch.
Naturally, I'm in for the general video production, but would love to work on this with maybe 1-2 more volunteers. So, who's in..? :)
Cheers, Shani.

Hello all,
I'm really loving this discussion. So happy to see you all chime in and share your ideas about what kind of format would be helpful for the monthly Collab meetings.
Shani, thanks for suggesting the idea of a showcase. I love it. Let's make sure we find a balance between a 1 minute pitch (which is entirely too short to do anything justice) and a 15 minute exposé, which may be perceived as too long by some people. I also really like Melina's outline, and would like to encourage all of you to think about these questions for framing this:
- Why is this interesting or relevant for an international audience?
- What can others learn from this experience?
- What was the major eye-opener / lesson you got from this experience?
- Highlight one challenge and one creative solution you came up with
(and I can keep going with these kinds of questions).
Thanks as well for suggesting a general education-related video. That sounds really awesome. I did speak to Victor about something like that a long time ago, and much has changed since then, so it's probably time to dust off that conversation and see if we can get it moving. Since this is a request that came from our Collab members, I would be so very happy if (some of) you can take this forward. We would be happy to provide guidance as needed. I'm also happy to have an initial conversation with Victor to see whether he would be able to do this, or whether it might make more sense to go with the external group Sara suggested. Who of you Collab members would like to take the lead on this? (and let's put it in Phabricator then!)
I look forward to a great meeting in December!
