Archive Reels –

Example Collections from the CameraPlanet Archive

The CameraPlanet Archive includes more than 1,000 hours of original footage captured by over 130 citizen filmmakers in the days surrounding September 11, 2001. To help researchers, producers, and editors explore the depth of this material, we’ve created a number of curated sample collections.

These example reels are designed to give potential users a sense of the archive’s range and storytelling power. They can be used for research, reference, or rough-cut editing while you review material for potential licensing.

Please note that all preview reels are time-coded and watermarked. Any footage used in commercial, broadcast, or public distribution must be properly licensed through CameraPlanet.
