By MGP Staff
Jan 23, 2008, 10:21

The Media Giraffe Project is developing a rich archive of multimedia resources from our events and our interviews with "giraffe prospects." These resources are in use by prospective citizen journalists and to media and journalism educators. Most may be freely streamed or downloaded at no cost. If you would like a copy of one or more QuickTime files on a computer-readible CD-ROM, we can make and send them for a $14.95 shipping and handling fee per disk. For specific inquires, email video@mediagiraffe.org or phone 413-577-4370.

The resources are currently available at several places (we hope to consolidate and improve this presentation in the future):
