Video for Health and Social Transformation

Inspired by the use of video in Tonga to connect and serve the interests of community I called my company Potolahi Productions. Poto means socially astute, lahi means a lot. I am trying to live up to the name I gave myself. Visual anthropology is one of the key frames I locate my video projects and experiments. I am interested in video and visual anthropology for health and community. So co-creation and collaboration are key values in my work. This website is a way of understanding what I do and finding the values of video that serve the interests of research and transformation.
