Among the tapes in the NFSA collection recorded using the early Sony Portapak video recorder are five from the Women’s Community Aid Centre in Brisbane.
This excerpt from 1975 captures the potential uses of portable video cameras and recorders by community groups who wanted to represent themselves, rather than be represented by the traditional media as was previously the case.
This clip features direct addresses to the camera from the members of the association, talking about feminism and what it means to be an independent woman in the mid-1970s in Australia.
