    Go to archive.org and click on Moving Images. The Prelinger archive is a treasure trove of old public domain footage

    Actually I need video clips which have blue or green background so they could be easily keyed using chroma key. And I need free downloadable techno style sound clips to use it as a background track.

    If you have any idea plz tell me.

    regards,

    That’s asking an awful lot. I don’t know of a single place online that offers free chromakey footage, but if you find one, let us know. You could always roto your subject out of some of the public domain footage found at archive.org. It’d be a lot more work, but if you’re looking for free stuff, that’s your best bet.

    As for the music, go to creativecommons.org and search their archives. Make sure to note what usage rights are when downloading music, as some can be used for commmercial projects and some can’t.
