Comedy is Translation

A great TED talk that relates really strongly to the power of comedy in Tonga.

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. 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.
