This is a set of clips recently uncovered in our archives. They were recorded many years ago on a Flip video camera, with an original resolution of 640 × 480 pixels. While the image quality doesn’t compare to what modern phones can capture, back then, this was state-of-the-art consumer video. Other alternatives were prohibitively expensive.

We believe these clips have value as a record of our history and evolution—preserving both what we were working toward and how we approached it—and merit preservation for that reason.

This particular collection focuses on front-grabs. Additional collections covering other scenarios are being pulled from early hard drives and are planned for future release.

For context, all clips were entirely improvised and captured as they happened, with no editing, staging, or re-shoots.
