Jennifer Blaylock, WITNESS, Spring 2009, NEH

WITNESS, an media organization focusing on human rights, partnered with the Burma Humanitarian Mission in 2002 to bring to light the suffering of Burmese civilians and ethnic minorities through the video Fueling Abuse. Responding to a request from the Burma Humanitarian Mission, Jennifer Blaylock processed a collection of camera originals from the production, inspecting and logging the tapes, and updating and correcting database entries. She also digitized the tapes, coordinated their transfer to the Mission, and selected clips for streaming on the HUB, the WITNESS web video site.
