Recorded December 13, 2011, 2pm. A tutorial for activists on how to document police brutality and police behavior in a safe and efficient manner. The importance of holding cameras steady, working as a team, and properly labelling evidentiary footage, photographs, pictures, audio, sound, images, evidence of police wrong doing, police misconduct, police brutality.
note: There is some misinformation regarding tripods in the video. tripods are not illegal in NYC, you don't need a permit to use one despite what the speaker says. However, I wouldn't recommend opening up a tripod at a protest or demonstration if the situation is fluid and volatile.

“Taking photographs and video of things that are plainly visible in public spaces is a constitutional right — and that includes the outside of federal buildings, as well as transportation facilities, and police and other government officials carrying out their duties.”
