Welcome to the May edition of the Orchard Clips newsletter.
The next month is one of our favourite times of the year, here at Orchard Clips, as it provides opportunities for us to connect with many of the talented people who work in this industry. We’re excited to announce our participation at footageMarketplace; an event with fascinating seminars and the chance to network with visual creatives from around the world. This is followed by the FOCAL Awards, where we will be celebrating the best uses of archival footage across the content industries.
Hajj season will soon be here. We are launching a curated Hajj footage collection, a great resource to tell the story of this sacred time of year.
We are pleased to welcome onboard our newest content partner, Avang Negareh Media. Read on to discover their clips exploring contemporary and historical Iran.
