Where to buy Video Footage of previous tv shows and such? - GoFuckYourself.com

Rhino22 · 07-25-2005, 02:57 PM

My friend is doing a little film for his school and he wants to include in it some stock footage of video that has been shown on MTV, dateline NBC, and such.

Who sells this stuff? I would imagine there is probably one central place that offers all this stuff, wondering maybe if GFY'ers know where since the knowledge base here rivals anything else out there.

Thanks.

I'm looking for the industry standard site/place if anyone knows.

You would have to buy the rights from the individual license holders. Unless you're talking about stock footage. You'd need to identify who owns the footage and contact their licensing department

Just splice up DVDs and claim fair usage ala Michael Moore style. Make sure to slow down the tape at critical points to get your point across.
