SHARE YOUR VIDEO STORY

Thinking of sharing your video story about growing up with CDV? The simple instructions below will guide you step by step.

Sharing is one of the most effective ways to overcome the lifelong impact, so talking about your experience will itself be healing.  

Once you record your story, submitting it should take no more than 3 minutes. If you run into any snags, reach out to info@cdv.org. 

VIDEO SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

Not Sure What to Talk About in your Video? Here are the key things:

    • What was it like to grow up witnessing domestic violence (CDV)?
    • As a child, what did you call your experiences of growing up in that home? Does having a name for it now (Childhood Domestic Violence or CDV) help you in any way?
    • How has CDV impacted your physical health, emotional wellbeing, behaviors, and/or relationships?
    • Do you believe experiencing CDV has made you “less than”…or “more than”?
    • Have you been able to overcome the impact? How? Or are you currently on your journey of healing? Did someone (THE ONE) step in for you?
    • What is your life (job, hobbies, relationships, physical health, mental health) like? 
    • What words of advice or inspiration would you give to others who faced CDV?

General Requirements and Additional Considerations:

    • Your video should ideally be between 3 and 6 minutes.
    • You can either be looking directly at the camera or you can be positioned in an angle looking to the left or right of the camera.

    • Avoid camera movement while you record.

    • If your background is dark, wear light-colored clothing and vice versa.
