om...
Am doing a family history video project centered on interviews with a
couple about to celebrate their 50th anniversary. I plan to insert old
photos at appropriate places, and was wondering if anyone has come
across a source of archival video stock footage you can download or
purchase. Videos that would show old footage from the 1920's 30's,
40's etc.
These scenes would be edited in the movie when comments about those
years are being talked about.
I'm sure I'm not the first one that has thought about this idea, and
would greatly appreciate any comments or suggestions from thse of you
that have done such a project or know of such a video archive.
Thanking you in advance,
Jim
