I am a composer about to release a song for which I need a music video. It needs video footage and still shots depicting the Alcohol Prohibition and also depicting the Drug Prohibition from 1960's to present day.

All material needs to be either clearly in the Public Domain or available for purchase at a readily-available website.

You must be skilled at searching on the Internet and searching for photos and footage in the Library of Congress.

If the piece requires attribution, then a mention at the end of the music video must satisfy this requirement. If it requires a link of some kind, I obviously cannot do that inside a video.

The end product should be a list that contains:

1. indication of whether each photo or video is in the public domain. There can't be any mistakes here! I don't want to get sued for using material I don't have rights to use. You need to be absolutely sure it is PD - or find its vendor.

2. a link to each photo or video. If not PD, the link should go to the page where it can be purchased. If PD, should link to page that explains its status and what use is allowed.

3. if a process is required to get access to the photo or video (other than purchase), please spell out clear instructions. E.g., if it's in the Library of Congress, can I just copy it or do I need to go through some process?

I'd like enough photos and videos to cover at least 7 minutes Still shots can display in the video for about 2 seconds each. So 30 still shots would cover about a minute.

At least 4-1/2 of those minutes should be scenes from the Alcohol Prohibition and at least 2:30 of scenes from the drug prohibition.

The Alcohol Prohibition scenes should include rampant alcohol consumption, smuggling, Al Capone, and gangs of the 1920's.

The drug prohibition scenes should show drug use, drug law enforcement, i.e people getting arrested, people in jail; gang warfare, and a few scenes of black people getting busted or harassed (to go with lyric "stopped by a cop if your skin is black").

Generally, I prefer video to still shots, so please get as much video as you can and cover anything yout can't get in video with still shots.

I will send the lyric of the song, which will dictate much of what should be covered by these scenes.
