You can use one of the following methods to purchase archival footage:
If you want to license archival footage online, add the selected historical clips to your shopping cart and follow the step-by-step instructions. In the shopping cart, you can choose the license type, the format and quality of the footage.
This method is optimal, if you have already mastered net-film tools such as Search, Player, and Collections. By using them, you can puchase footage online and track order status.
Useful information:
If you've already found the clips you need, you can send a list of footage to [email protected]. To avoid confusion, we recommend that you specify clips in one of the following ways:
Option 1 - specify the link to the film (copy the full URL from the address bar), the part number and the time code of the clip.
Example: www.net-film.ru/film-4196/, part 3 00:37-00:45, 00:50-01:15
Option 2 - specify the title and the year of release, the part number and the time code of the clip.
Example: The Downfall of the Romanov Dynasty (1927), part 3 00:37-00:45, 00:50-01:15
Option 3 - If you've downloaded comps (previews) from net-film, you can specify the file name and the time code.
Example: fs18815 00:37-00:45, 00:50-01:15
How to specify the time code?
Specify the time of the beginning and end of the clip in MM:SS format (for example, 00:37-00:45).
