    Hey
    im doing a performace of living/live art in a few weeks.I need some projected images of things flying if anyone has any (of which they hold a copyright to, or know wont be copywrite infringement) or parhaps horizons? nice images of just that freedom feeling, non agressive, slightly dreamy :) could they let me know??

    Also I need a film or video clip of birds flying, prefurably from left to right.... or even just a silhouete of them flapping in the sky again could you let me know?

    thanks!!

    ...


    Sorry honey... I've been thinking and can't come up with anything just yet...

    Is there a way you could get some footage on vid using a digi cam? I have one of those new fangled cameras but dont have a clue how to use the video bit... could lend it you if it would help?

    Adam (Killer) is a photographer though... i'll ask him tomorow if he has any footage you could use:)

    Love Clairexxx

    What format are you after? Video, 8mm, 16mm, mpeg or avi?

    Can't help if it's hard copy your after but there might be a few resources on the net if you want digital stuff

    I just did a search on google for "royalty free video" and this was one of the first things I came up with. Think they're all in quicktime (.mov) format which should make them easy to edit:

    I'm sure that there are plenty more out there you can find without having to pay

    i have a lovely photo of a flying frog that i found on a pub roof somewhere. it is a really good photo, and fairly surreal, but i dont know if it would be any good to you or not. let me know and i'll send it to you. it's quite big so it would probably be best to send it via msn.

    peace and love

    Hi,


    I took a few pictures at a raptor display in the summer, and the little place I take them to scans them on to CD. The file sizes are either 200-400kb, or 2 to 4Mb, so I don't post them on the forums. Here are some thumbnail pics tho - if they are the sort of thing you are after then MSN Moominmamma and we'll send you whichever size is most useful. As I took them, I guess the copyright is mine, but you're very welcome to use them if they are any help.

    The first one is WONDERFULL!!
    and with the last one.... do you have any like that with the whole bird in it? im having real trouble finding a bird flying straight at the camera because i want it progected big so the head/body of the bird is on my back and the wings come out almost as if they were my own.

    No whole birds like that I'm afraid - I've got a slightly out-of-focus shot of the same bird - don't know if you could photo-shop the wing-tips onto the main picture.


    I'll stick one more in - it's not a flight picture but this vulture was looking at our youngish, wee Hamish, with a definate "Do you feel lucky, punk" air to it!

    Of course you can, little one, but I was honest when I say it was out of focus.

    The large file is 3.29Mb, medium is 260kb. Moominmamma loves any excuse for a natter on MSN - she's hooked even worse than Hipforums!

    The one of the Black Kite hovering is in focus - you might want to have a look at the bigger file. Anyway, like I say, feel free to use them - when you're a rich and famous performance artist just let us know if you need a little old Norfolk couple to chauffeur\butler & housekeep for you!

    I'll keep looking - the momma & I are suckers for sunset\horizon photo's, but I suspect very few of them are captured digitally - I really do need to pull my finger out and get a scanner.

    Would stuff like this be any use,

    Do you want the full sized file (1.5 meg), or do you want it compressed? And what address you want it sent to? Yer hotmail addy?
