September 11th Video Project
Free Republic ^ | Eddie Arent

Posted on 03/27/2004 9:40:15 AM PST by PRSOrlando

Hello all,

Let me introduce you to what I am doing. In my history class, we were assigned a project to do a movie about an event in American history. Now, my teacher is one of these left-wing whackos who bashes the President each time he gets a chance to, yet he calls himself a "centrist" (you've got to love these people). Anyway, instead of coming up with some stupid life in the 60s video which a group wanted me to be a part of, I decided to do an individual "short documentary" (7-8 minutes, so it's not really a real documentary, just a summery) on the events of September 11th and beyond.

I don't want to hold back. So far, I have footage of the WTC attacks, footage of the Pentagon, and a clip where President Bush is giving a speech. As well, I have footage/pictures of these "anti-war" people and some of their anti-American messages. A fellow student even sent me a clip of a man jumping out of a window of the WTC and suggested that I use that to show people what kind of hell these victims were going through.

What I'm asking from you all is if you can contribute in any way. Be it a video clip, pictures, a quote from our national leaders, or any other advice. I really want to hit home with this and wake people up to what happened that day because some of these kids (and adults) have truly forgotten what happened that day and what is at stake today.

This video is for educational purposes only. No money is going to be made off it. Thus, I believe fair use issue of Copywrite laws are at use. Either way, every source I use will be documented in the film credits.

Thank you for your time.

Good ideas, D1. The absurd thing is that Osama declared war formally (well as formal as a terrorist leader can) in Feb 1998. Many people forget that little item. If war is declared upon a nation, that nation has no choice, it is at War. (Too bad Clinton didn't notice...)

That blows the opposition's (foreign and domestic) belief that we had no right to "start" a war just because a few thousand civilians were killed. (By a guy that one of our Democratic Representatives in Congress described as a nice man who builds schools and roads. Which ironically they are saying also now about that "spiritual" leader that invented Homicide Bombers)

Lijahsbubbe, a plaus(able) typo...

Wow...that's powerful! I haven't forgotten, and I wonder how so many others have. And for the life of me, I can't figure out why any person who had a family member or close friend perish that day could ever side with someone like John Kerry or Ted Kennedy or Clinton or any of those dems after that day. The Dems brought nothing but trouble and disgrace to our country.

Darryl Worley's song "Have You Forgottin?" would be a great soundtrack.

I suggest you insert a picture, which I'm trying to locate, that shows an anti-war protester holding a sign that reads (paraphrase): 'I love NY better without the twin towers'.

I thought I heard Sean Hannity recently announce it was posted on his web site. However, I searched and didn't find it. I just emailed his show to see if they have it. Otherwise, it is probably lurking somewhere. I'm going to ask fellow Washington FReepers if they know. Either way Ill get back to you about the photo.

There is a 30 second TV commercial that you may want to include in your edit. It was aired in Seattle and it drove the lefties nuts. Sean Hannity let America review it when he showed it on Hannity & Colmes. I have a copy that you might want to use, but it's not real clean.

Great Idea on a class project.

BTW - I'm a video producer. I use Final Cut Pro on a Mac G4 and shoot with a Sony 3-chip camera. On the side, I record OSOT rallies and anything else patriotic. I shot the return of the U.S.S Abraham Lincoln, which returned with enormous fanfare here in Everett, WA.

To show the dark side of America, I record anti-war events too. Incuding the anti-war rally in Seattle last weekend which featured speaker, Ed Asner, who likes to consider his fellow protesters as the real patriots. That rally amounted to a collection of freaks, socialists, communists and liberals that are extremely angry and hate Bush. There were 3 arrests that I didn't get to see and one scene where protester harrassed a family trying to get into their car which was parked alongside the rally and sort of stuck among the crowd. One "lady" used both hands to flip-off the family getting into the car...that footage I did get.

Great suggestion,
I used Darryl's song for the first 4+ minutes of the video which is a tribute to September 11.

Then the last 2-3 minutes (which I'm working on now) is of American troops (primarily) pictures with the background music being "Some Gave All" by Billy Ray Cyrus.

Here is an interesting video of an interview with some NYC firemen who escaped the collapse.

Thanks for the suggesion! I'm looking for that picture right now. I believe I saw it on Free Republic a week ago.

I also have footage of anti-war protesters in the video. Only thing is I have to site the source (Protest Warrior). I have some local footage, but those people in Orlando were just loonly guitar players...nothing compared to some of the asses you saw.
