I am a regional history day coordinator and would like to have a saved file copy of your fabulous documentary to help teach middle school and high school teachers about creating effective documentary entries with their students. Could you send me a copy of this documentary? Would you give permission to show it to faculty at a workshop? cab39@psu.edu Christine

hi...I'm doing a group documentary in the Junior Division. I was wondering if you had any suggestions on where i can find 20th century videos (such as in the 1950s). ex. 15 second clips of people in New York walking down the street.
Unfortunately I didn't place, although I still believe that I should have. Of course I would believe that though, it's my video. All of the videos there were very well done, with great topics.
wow. this is amazing! I'm actually working on an NHD documentary myself. I was wondering if you might have any suggestions/feedback on anything I could add to make the film better and what to stay away from in a documentary? Great job!
Thanks a bunch, and if you're doing a documentary, the best general advice that I can give is to make sure that you get a ton of interviews, try your best to find video of your topic (a slide show can get very boring), and make sure the script is thought out and progresses so that it ends at the 10:00 mark.
I like how you used film and pictures to make your documentary. It's really good! I was in NHD this year. Check out my documentary! I could use some feedback,
I had iMovie 06, which was on apple's site for download until recently. Sorry, I don't know anything about iMovie 08 or 09, but if you can get your hands on a copy of imovie 06 that would be the best thing you can do. Or you could get Final Cut Express, which is really expensive but has all the effects you could ever want.
it was pretty difficult and i had a lot of technical difficulties at the local national history day event, but i overcame them and i'm going to NATIONALS!!! thanx for the help.
Greenpeace didn't get enough love in this video. When France was testing nukes on some island chain, they went, got a fishing boat, drove past warships and SAT ON TOP OF THE BOMB that was shcduled to go off that day so they couldn't set it off! Now I have to say that is pretty hardcore and I would SO do that! Because I'm insane!!!
Yeah, I agree that it would put all countries that disarmed at a much larger risk then before, but someone has to start. The best option would be if everyone disarmed at the same time, but that isn't likely to happen. My opinion is that the US should disarm, putting huge international pressure on other countries to do the same.
Very unlikely to work. Think about it: if everyone got rid of their nukes, the first country that cheats and secretly build new nukes will conquer the world. Nukes kept the west and the eastern bloc from war. Nuclear weapons in the hands of responsible superpowers isn't the problem, MAD ensures they will never go to war directly. The configuration of having only the biggest powers with nukes locked in MAD is the 'best' solution in an imperfect world.
I know that it's unlikely to work, but MAD is only a temporary solution. Eventually, it leads to destruction. What I'm saying is, why does the world need enough nuclear weapons do destroy every inch of the earth multiple times? Of course a total disarmament would be best, but like you said it's unlikely. If we could disarm to a "reasonable" amount of nuclear weapons, locked into MAD like you said, it would be a good start.
I really enjoyed that. There was a funny part when the guy at the end( jim Riccio) talked about the advancements they have had over the years one including " no longer blow up nuclear weapons above ground" He follows that by saying " its not rocket science" Pretty funny.
I wanna keep them around for the very real threat of godzilla and just hope that no ones bat shit insane enough to use one on their fellow man

Also, the state that I won in was New Jersey.

very well done. i am doing a national history day project this year. do you have any suggestions on what software to use and so on?
irokoutloud248 3 years ago 2
most people i know used pinnacle. it's a little bit tricky to figure out, but a lot of video software is even more complicated.
