Share your found footage video!

Follow along with Penny’s exercise, and then share your three words and a link to your video. Remember, your edit doesn’t need to be super polished—instead focus on finding an angle that feels compelling, funny, or relevant to you.

Some questions to consider as you work:

How did the constraints of working with found footage impact your creative process?
Does your video work with or against the original context of the footage?
What’s your “dream project” to create with found footage? Share the archive or story you’d most like to uncover.

Whether you’re playing with video for the first time, applying these ideas to a bigger project, or simply looking for a new perspective on the vast world of online video, use the project space to share your process. We can't wait to watch and discuss!
