Location & Creator/Author/Organisation:
Press Contact Martha de Hoyos.

Media and how it is used:
A Blog and a petition has been posted online as well as a recent Ustream which will air Cost of War - an anti-war documentary with a question and answer session after the movie leading up to the State of the Union. Facebook, Twitter and YouTube are also other media outlets in which they use to provide current events and updates to the campaign.

Points reflecting on its success:
Participation between the campaign followers and the organiser in petitioning for this cause as well as the regular updates to inform the public about what they're trying to achieve in the end/ purpose.

Points of possible transfer to the Newcastle context:
Integration of video interviews possibly before/ after the festival from keynote speakers about the project.
