Inspired by the Mass-Observation movement of the 1930s onwards, the BBC Video Nation site has grown out of its Video Diaries programmes of the 1990s, where people were given Hi-8 video cameras and invited to record their lives of a year. Video Nation Online was launched in 2001 with 250 of the original shorts. The site has expanded to some 750 films, with strong English regional coverage. The films are classified by theme, special features, localities and contributor. The films are available in both narrowband (56k|ISDN) and broadband (256k+) formats.

Part of the BBC’s commercial arm, the BBC Motion Gallery includes footage from its archives as well as those of CBS in the United States and is primarily a footage resource for companies in the commercial sector. However, the site also features hundreds of streamed samples of its wares (some lasting only a few seconds), which can be searched by subject and viewed freely via Windows Media Player. The items are adequately encoded and categories include Animals, Business, Places, Nature, News & Events, Science & Technology, Travel, Sport and others. In addition to which there are a huge number of keywords (although there is no actual list to access), as well as pre-organised ‘Concepts’ such as Flirting, Danger, Action and so on which are listed alphabetically. The advanced search makes use of disguised Boolean Search operators but also allows for searches to be limited to format, colour and aspect ratio. It effectively operates as an index to the whole BBC archive. Registration is required but is free and all clips feature BBC digital onscreen graphics as watermarks.In Nov 2007 a new online service was launched in partnership with JISC, to give UK FE and HE institutions access to a selection of footage for use in an educational setting via a password-protected site http://www.jiscmotiongallery.com. At the end of 2009 the Motion Gallery launched the World in Motion channel on Youtube to show high definition clips of programmes such as NOTES ON A CITY.

Half a dozen full-length titles are also offered for sale on DVD. The subjects covered include famine in Ethiopia, unrest in Sierra Leone as well as the fortunes of West African migrants as well as reports from Burma, Bangladesh, Guatemala, India, Indonesia, Israel and several other countries.

The Steven Spielberg Film Archive at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem holds the world’s largest collection of Jewish documentary film footage. Its ‘Virtual Cinema’ is now streaming over 100 titles from the collection (using Windows Media Player), divided into Jewish Communities, Holocaust, Pre-State, State of Israel and Hebrew University of Jerusalem. The ‘cinema’ presentation of the films is particularly attractive. Information on the individual titles is scanty, but the Archive’s catalogue is available elsewhere on the site.

This extremely detailed resource from the University of Virginia provides a very large number of video and audio clips on Tibet and its peoples and culture which require QuickTime to access. They can be searched individually by collection or region or across the entire database. The encoding is decent, but the image size is rather small. The material goes as far back as the 1930s and clips vary in length for a few minutes to close to half an hour. It is possible to search the collection individually and by keyword, although accessing the materials can be a little bit laborious. The site is also available in Tibetan, Nipali, Chinese and Japanese.

The WGBH Media Archives and Preservation Center presents bulletins from WGBH’s in-depth nightly news program, >The Ten O’Clock News. The material covers the years from 1974 to 1991 and can be searched by keyword, name, location and chronologically and are between 30 and 200 seconds in length and require QuickTime. From a design perspective, the site is not particularly attractive and somewhat spartan, but the materials held are often fascinating, with emphasis on serious political issues such as desegregation in schools, AIDS and affordable housing.
