[…] One of the most frustrating things about watching UGC (end-user generated content) is that it’s mainly entertainment, self-based vanity self publishing. Not that I have a problem with navel gazing, but its doing something to help others - that really matters. […]
Very well done. I would like to know what videocam was used as it is quite a good quality picture. This tells a wonderful story and informs the viewer in moments.
Well done! It was really interesting to hear him speak at length about his profession without patronizing edited sound bites. I’ll be back for more - vincent

This was very interesting. Great job.
There was some incredible story telling here. Thanks for this!
Thanks for all the encouragement folks ! Its great to know that folks are actually watching these and appreciating them
Will get back regarding the camera make and model. We have 3 cameras and they are with the boys who are currently in Bombay (Mumbai) recording some new stuff.

[…] And that’s why I love Swajana. As of writing they have 6 videos on archive, featuring people, events and scenes in everyday life in India. I especially love those videos they did on Nai, A Pavement Barber, Pottery, and the Flower Maiden (can you tell I find people stories most amazing?).
