The ZOOM Petition! Part 4 of 4 MAJOR UPDATE IN DESCRIPTION!!!

Subtitles are coming soon! Anyway, this is my video petition to bring the show Zoom back in production. You can view this video better when you watch it full screen. I want 7 million signatures to recognize the fact to be revealed in this video. Signatures will be video responses. Thanks!! Please check this box for any updates!!
Update (3/5/2010; 8/28/2010): My whole petition is changing its goal. Instead, Zoom will return in reruns with other older PBS Shows: Wishbone, Kratt's Creatures, and Ghostwriter. It will be in a block called Go! Classics. Now you can sign it here:

If you need more info, please read this webpage I made:

Thank you!
Update (5/23/2010; 8/28/2010): I was originally planning a screening in my area for the promotion of my new goal. So, I contacted all the copyright owners (including WGBH for Zoom, of course) who produced work that I would show at my screening. However, a response from WGBH makes me wonder if the Go! Classics Block (see my webpage or petition above for more info) would even exist on PBS or any other station for that matter. In a nutshell, WGBH doesn't own the rights to Zoom anymore; Kate Taylor and her production team does!! Therefore, unless they hire a team to recontact all of these producers, they can't give rights to anyone, not to PBS, not even to themselves!!

So, Here is where I stand:
The older shows other than Zoom I plan to bring back are probably the same way. If they were to come back, the only slight possible way would be if they were syndicated to another station and not re-broadcast on PBS like my webpage and petition say. Rather than give up on my goal altogether, I want YOU guys on YouTube to comment on this video or any other Zoom Petition video. Do you think it should be syndicated, or should it stay on PBS? If you think it should be syndicated, to which station and why? Before I update my webpage or petition any further, I want you to say what you think. Thanks to all who signed my petition so far!
Update (6/30/2010): I will extend the serial format deadline to Tuesday, September 7th, 2010. If there are no new submissions received by then, disneysongtape's idea will win by default.

For those of you wondering why caraharvey17 appears to be just a random channel, she deleted her video that contained zoom clips of her and some school plays she was in, but I downloaded it. I am not going to reupload it to YouTube, but for those who still wish to see it, I think I will add a link to the video when I upload it to my Charter webspace and add a link in the description ONLY if people want to see it.  That's all for now.

Ok Thanks for understanding and still using me in your petition. Bob

That's okay. I think I will use your top comment in the letter I will use when I send in all the signatures. Any way, I'm not even sure How I'll send in 7 million signatures that are video. What I was thinking was that I would make a playlist of all the signatures, and then embed the playlist into powerpoint, and send in the powerpoint presentation on CD. As long as they view it on a computer with flash and an internet connection, the should be able to view all the signatures.

I am picjy about what I post online. I really don't want a video of myself online. Sorry. I hope you get all the votes you want. BOb

Do you have a digital camera? Most digital cameras have a movie clip feature that enables you to take short movies (usually 5 min. max) and download them with your pictures. You could try that, and upload your video to YouTube. Make sure you delete the video from the camera once it is on the computer because movie clips take up a lot more space than pictures.

I ain't even got a webcam. Sorry. Bob

[Robdeltonie]

Do you have a webcam? You can use the direct webcam upload feature on YouTube to upload your video response. Just click "post a video response", make sure "Record a Video" is highlighted and your webcam is on, and you should be able to start recording. However, Flash Player might say that YouTube is trying to access your webcam and microphone. Just select allow and click close, and you'll be on your way.

I don't have a video camera All I have is clip from the show. Is there any way to do it? Bob
