The WPA Film Library proudly announces the arrival of new footage collections.
 

• Contemporary Footage of Childbirth and Babies   • Early 1980s Punk/New Wave material   • More campy Classic Commercials         Childbirth & Babies features contemporary footage related to pregnancy, labor and delivery, and neonatal care. This diverse collection depicts mothers of different ethnicities and includes natural births, C-sections, induced labor, twins, and even a water birth; labor at home and in the hospital; and support from Doulas and dads. Exams, epidurals, and newborn evaluations round out the medical material.  You will also find cute footage of infants at home, attempting to walk, playing and eating! Click for Video The 1980s / Punk footage is a fun flashback to New Wave music, studded black leather and green spiked hair.  Two documentaries feature performances and interviews with bands such as The Thompson Twins, New Musik, and The Distractions, among others. For many productions, the 1980s B-roll will be as enticing as the music. Fashions and hairstyles, nightclubs, vinyl, radio stations and recording studios – here are some excellent slices of life from the music scene of early Eighties. Click for Video WPA has long been an excellent source for all things retro, and has just added more fun, campy Classic Commercials from the 1950s. Shaving cream for father! A mop for mother! Dolls for daughter! And food for the whole family! Just try to get the jingles out of your head.   Click for Video From newborns to old school, think of WPA.
