Press and Media information
When you want to visit Auroville for filming, writing, or photographic purposes, you will have to get in touch with Auroville's OutreachMedia, the Auroville service in charge of facilitating visits of journalists and film/video makers. Their particular aim is to ensure that all journalists and filmmakers get correct, up-to-date information or relevant/representative footage from the best sources so that generally, their visit is a fruitful and constructive one.
This includes intermediating with authorities in order to obtain permission to film (especially relevant to foreign film crews); collaborating on tentative scenarios and film schedules beforehand so that when a film crew or reporter arrives no loss of time occurs; setting up interviews with appropriate people; escorting crews around the township; and helping book accommodation and arrange transport, as well as possibly helping with the final product where 'finishing touches' may be required. A financial contribution may be asked for the above services including administrative charges/fees.
Thank you for approaching OutreachMedia
Kindly note that the Outreachmedia office is closed on weekends and public holidays. An appointment via email well before your arrival is the best way to get in touch with us.
