Hey Everyone,
So I was wondering - how does one go about using news clips or older pieces of film or video? For example - If I wanted to use news clips from March on Wallstreet, which is fairly current, or if I wanted to use newsreels from Vietnam, or even old film clips from the Great Depression - Could I do so? What is the legal, logistical deal with using news clips?
Furthermore, what about using clips that are old, and likely don't have an owner at this point? For example, I wanted to use this old clip of Pete Seeger performing, among other clips of him from around the time period. Would I be able to use a clip of this without running into issues?
