Budgetless Music Videos: Empowering Communities

What happens when a bunch of strangers gets together with a common goal to achieve? This is the story behind Diana Boccara and Leo Longo’s projects, filming over 100 budgetless, one-take music videos around the world. With the intention of creating art, they got thousands of volunteers to join them, collaborating in the making of the videos, participating actively in overcoming challenges with them. This movement started with just a couple of filmmakers following their passion. But it grew to become a tool to engage people, to build trustful relationships and develop empathy among others. In this session, they share their learnings on the impact relying on strangers has on society and how that can empower communities
