I liked the 'mash ups' of the (I'm assuming) public domain video clips (statue of liberty flyby, newspaper men, etc) from circa 1950/1960 etc..
Can you comment on how you found those clips in the archives? Or was it brute force by watching a bunch & taking notes for possible use later? I have used these types of clips also however it's rather time consuming to find the kind of clips I want to put where I want to put them etc. --- In videoblogging@yahoogroups.com, "Chuck Olsen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Speaking of copyright! > > This week I put my entire documentary feature film online. > It's called "Blogumentary" and it documents the rise of political > and personal blogs, from the early days up through the > Iraq War and Dan Rather's downfall - not to mention a > bloggy love story or two.
