Flickr has millions of photos tagged by users and if you place proper images one after another you can build a video. The hard part is finding suitable images.

Movie Assembly welcomes to anybody who wants to join this project to find suitable images. Send an e-mail to movieassembly@gmail.com to get the details.

Each collaborator will be credit at the end of the film, and we are planning to send our film to film festivals world wide.

In the possible future Movie Assembly project wants to build a webtool to build this type of movies online. And we are looking for flash coders that can collaborate with us. If you are interested send an e-mail to movieassembly@gmail.com to get the details.

The basic idea is; webtool will supply search results from Flickr and user can drag-drop desired image to the time line. So film maker can track and edit the results on real time and online.

Any kind of suggestion and comment is welcome

Here a case study of webtool interface.
