   Thank you for your generosity. May I suggest to the readers who use video professionally that they should check out the parent site, http://www.footagefirm.com I found it to have a huge breadth of stock footage, including some very specific topics. FootageFirm isn’t paying me to say this, but it’s a small deposit on repaying them for their kindness.

   Do you take submissions from your users? Least we could to repay you for this website. You can decide if they’re good enough for posting. Just figured many of your users may have high quality, and odd and interesting video clips that we all might enjoy.

   Thank you! I have to ask…why are you doing this? Why are you offering footage for free?

10. admin | September 30th, 2008 at 5:07 pm

    We do it because we love it! And the site is an excellent customer acquisition tool for Footage Firm and our full suite of footage.

    I am impressed by what you are doing, though I would like to see some footage in PAL for those of us in the rest of the world. I travel extensively and always carry my (3 CCD) camera, now upgraded to HD. Would you be interested in PAL footage??
