Volunteers
Many volunteers help AMF. In part, this is why 100% of the money we receive buys nets.
If you are interested in volunteering some of your expertise and/or time, please let us know. Usually it is a few hours, sometimes it's a mini-project with a definite start and end. In all cases volunteer help fits what the volunteer can and wants to do.
The areas in which we could currently use help are listed below. If you'd like to
help in a way not listed, do get in touch: you can probably still help!
Photo selectors
We receive photos from each distribution, typically up to 100, and need to select
between 20 and 40 to illustrate the story of the distribution. We upload all the
photos from a distribution to a website and a volunteer will be given access to
select, caption and order the photos. more info (pdf)
Experience: An eye for what makes a good photo and an ability to string a
narrative together using short captions.
Video editors
We receive video footage from each distribution and edit 10-30 mins down to 90-120
seconds to tell the story of the distribution. We send out the raw footage (DVD
or digital formats) and need a good quality edit in a standard digital format (.mov,
.wmv etc). A video editing job is typically a couple of hours. more info (pdf)
Experience: This is best carried out by a (semi-)professional editor or talented amateur with experience in editing.
