Abstract
Crowdsourced video is now a viable tool with which
broadcasters and communities alike can produce authentic,
high quality video content. However, the literacy, language,
skills and tools to produce a documentary through
commissioning content are currently difficult to acquire. We
explore opening up the documentary film commissioning
process to community contributors by developing a
framework which instructs, guides and informs nonprofessional
contributors in capturing the content required
for making videos. Through the results of an in-the-wild
deployment we discuss how our framework scaffolds content
creation, the capture of high quality footage and coordination
amongst teams of contributors. We then discuss how this can
inform community media creation in the future.
