Looking for some footage

Can someone direct me to somewhere on the Web? Where I can get some footage of Islam, mainly Islamic prayers ? As I would like to use some of this kind of footage in my latest amv, that I am producing at the moment.

If anyone can help, thank you.

Finding such clip in formats other than realmedia or quicktime would be pretty hard, esp if you want quality ones... but I dunno. Why not just rent a VCD or videotape, look for something like Malcolm X or Lawrence of Arabia?

1. Try Islamicity.com look in their Multimedia section.

2. Try use a few of these words when searching @ google or altavista:

prayers, hajj, pilgrimage, video, samples, download, Islam, documentary, free

3. Or, you could find & use some hi-res still images to replace video clips for your AMV.

It is very difficult and limiting to do AMVs in this manner and you will almost never get what you need in a uniform quality. Not to mention that I disagree with downloading all your footage for an AMV. A scene or two is fine but nothign else.
