Journeymen Pictures describes itself as utilizing "a unique knowledge of one of the most difficult markets in the world to become one of Europe's leading factual distributors." The phrase "factual distribution" certainly breathes some metaphorical fresh air, but how can a company like this be so successful in what Journeymen calls "a dumbed-down world driven by the relentless demand of ratings we see international analysis and socio-political coverage slimmed to wafer thin"?
Similar to the Holocaust Museum's approach to the crisis in Darfur, Journeymen Pictures utilizes the latest advances in media and technology to promote and support their films. Their website explains: "Multimedia developments offer diverse and different broadcast potential in a way never possible before. They offer new platforms to a niche previously too small to justify much airplay on terrestrial TV. Recent technological developments are changing all that and we at Journeyman have firm plans to ensure we remain on the cutting-edge to ensure greater returns and viewing numbers into the future."
The site offers an incredible selection of documentaries on unreported worlds like Juarez. Check it out: http://www.journeyman.tv/
