REC ● 1970 — PRESENT · NORTHEAST U.S.

Every tape in the
Northeast has a story.

We are building a documentary out of the footage that never made it past a camcorder, a burned DVD or a shoebox of VHS tapes — plus everything being filmed right now. If you skated, filmed or transferred it, we want to see it.

What we want

  • Street
  • Vert
  • Park
  • Archival
  • Behind the scenes — vans, parking lots, arguments
  • Full parts, throwaways, slams, spot tours, crew footage

Rough, scratched and shaky is welcome — quality is not the point. When you upload we ask a few easy questions, including what makes the footage significant to skating in the Northeast.

No footage? Still send something. Film yourself telling a story, send photos, flyers and scans, or just type the story out — written stories count too.

Formats

Most of what we are after is old — tape that has already been transferred to digital files. Upload the transfer, tell us what it came from, and we will handle the rest.
