Video ethnographic documentation of stories and cultural practices with Indigenous Elders

This visual presentation reflects on the broader uses of video as a valuable tool for ethical recording of the stories and cultural practices of Indigenous Elders. The opportunities afforded by the use of the video were threefold, by its impact on the accuracy, truthful engagement, and connection with the Indigenous community. The inclusion of various segments of video in this paper shone a light on issues associated with ethical concerns such as anonymity and maintaining the integrity of recorded data. Thus, to ensure that the collective knowledge was shared in line with traditional laws and protocols of the Ngarrindjeri Nation. Our findings have significant implications for library and information researchers and professionals who gather video data from within (and about) Indigenous communities.
