Needed - Records of the Battle

March 7 2007

I have received a pile of stuff from Jan on the campaign. It's been  rainy, so could not work in the garden so I have been busy scanning.

I have scanned over 2.3Gb of photos (hundreds of them) and loaded in  another 1Gb of digital stuff from CDs. There are now plenty of photos  of all the rallies and major Maleny events. I am now going through 

this and collating to see what events in the campaign lack coverage.

My intention is to match the best of the photos with the website text  to create an online archive, and also to create a far more detailed  DVD archive of the entire campaign.

Thus far I see a requirement for:

a. Extra photos from campaign events outside of Maleny - Caloundra  Council, other Woolworths stores, Brisbane and Sydney etc. 

b. Small videos taken with digital cameras of any event in the  campaign.

c. VHS or DVD recordings of TV coverage - particularly from April  2004 when the Deens came in, and also during the camp Platypus eviction and start of construction in 2005 - I have none at present.

d. Any good video camcorder coverage of any event, needs to be put onto DVD first as I don't have a camera to transfer from miniDV to PC.

e. Audio recordings from the radio coverage, news, current affairs, JJJ interviews, Coast FM etc.

f. Music recordings from the Obi Choir or other singers who recorded singing or music during the campaign.

g. If you still have campaign slogans, posters, banners, etc at home, good front on digital photos of these put onto a CD.

h. Photos from inside the new Maleny Woolworths store - I have seen none at all thus far. Come on someone with one of those small digital cameras...

i. Good photos of near empty WW carpark, from differing angles, at different times of day in different weather to build up a lack of use pattern in photo documentation. Has anyone been doing this?

If anyone has anything they can contribute, please contact me.

Regards,

Steve Swayne
