Stock footage or no Stock Footage?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Shooting DV Films : One Thread

Anybody seen the price of stock footage these days?

We have just finished shooting our first film and require time-lapse footage of the sun/moon rising/setting. Stock footage is obviously way to expensive for our liking although it is the best way to source the ideal footage to incorporate in our film.

Anybody have any suggestions on what to do i.e. shoot the footage ourselves even though we could be waiting years for the right time of the day/night to capture the sun/moon? Help!!!

Check out footage.net -- a good resource for finding all kinds of footage. Perhaps there will be something affordable
