Ongoing collaboration as a videographer for the EU delegation to Cambodia

As part of an ongoing collaboration with the EU delegation to Cambodia, I was commission to work as a videographer for a series of videos about Erasmus +, The Youth Sounding board and the Inauguration of Phase II of Bakheng Water Treatment Plant.

Erasmus +

I had previously made a video about Cambodian students who want to study in study in the European Union to promote the Erasmus + programme.

 This time I was commissioned to work as a videographer interviewing lecturers and civil servants who had visited Europe as part of the programme.

 The people we interviewed spoke of the differences between universities in Europe and the universities in Cambodia, their experience of working with European lecturers, how the experience has informed their teaching and their experience in Europe.

 Hopefully the video will raise awareness about Erasmus + in Cambodia and encourage more Khmers to participate.

 I was also commissioned to make a video of H.E Som Ratana, Under Secretary of State for the MoEYS and the national focal point Erasmus + in Cambodia. He spoke of the benefits of the programme, his personal experience and encouraged Cambodians to participate.

Youth Sounding Board

I was also commissioned to make 2 videos to tell the stories of Mengkorn and Davit, 2 members of the Youth Sounding Board (YSB) in Cambodia.

 The YSB gives young Cambodians a voice in EU cooperation overseas to make it more relevant and effective.

 Mengkorn shared his experience of attending an education conference in Brussels and Davit shared her experience of visiting the Bakheng Water Treatment Plant as part of the YSB activities.

I shot the interviews and b-roll and worked closely with Sujash at Pixel Peers to create the intro sildes to the videos inline with the style guide for the YSB. This was complemented by archival footage and images the Mengkorn and Davit to give the videos a personal touch.

Inauguration of Phase II of Bakheng Water Treatment Plant

I worked as a videographer to make a video about the inauguration of phase II and the ground breaking of phase III of the plant.

 H.E Aun Pornmoniroth, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Economy and Finance, attended the ceremony.

"I would like to express my appreciation and gratitude to all our development partners, especially the French Agency for Development (AFD) and the European Union (EU)," he said.

The plant supplies 390,000m3 of clean water across the capital per day.
