Title: Bitcoin B-Roll (stock footage)
Post by: kiko on April 04, 2013, 10:15:20 PM
Given the recent increase in television/internet show coverage. I'm thinking it would be good to have an official resource for bitcoin b-roll.

The goal being to make it super easy for news teams to put together segments on bitcoin.

At present people are using the weusecoins sources, but then often cutting to screenshots of silk road or some such. Or worse just panning over a massive bitcoin logo.

Things like 'bitcoin accepted here' in a shop window. A close up of a smartphone transaction being sent. etc. etc.

Currently resources are a bit awkward to find and could be missed by a news journalist on a deadline, clicking from bitcoin.org -> bitcoin wiki -> Marketing -> Promotional Graphics.

Perhaps it gets it's own link from bitcoin.org.

It might be something that a foundation grant would cover. Or we could kick in bounties in return for footage.

What do people think? Any ideas for interesting b-roll footage?
