Press Release Body = For Immediate Release:
Google video posted a segment author Rob Sargeant's video journal, recorded while in Galilee, Israel, in June, 2004. This was where Sargeant was inspired to write his novel \"LOST ARK FOUND\" (Currently a best selling children\'s action/adventure book on www.bestwebbuys.com).
Inspiration for Rob Sargeant\'s story came during leisure time while he toured ancient ruins, and biblical sights around Lake Tiberius. \"I took two trips to places near the Galilee and the Dead Sea,\" says Sargeant. \"I was privileged to have local guides on both occasions. One Israeli guide, who took us to Massada, had worked with an archaeologist for several years searching for the Ark of the Covenant. He told me of his adventures one day in July while we drove across the hot Negev Desert on safari - These trips definitely helped to get the creative wheels rolling.\"
The novel, Lost Ark Found, follows the adventures of a group of teenagers, led by a grandfather and a mountain man hermit as they hunt for treasure in the mountains of Vancouver Island, B.C.. Following clues, and maps recorded in a three hundred year old journal, they solve riddles, overcome obstacles, discover a mountaintop Aboriginal temple - and end up making one of the greatest archaeological finds of the century - They discover the lost Ark of the Covenant.
Since his videos were posted on Google Video Sargeant has been sorting through the growing number of other free documentaries offered on site and has posted his recommendations on http://robsargeant.blogspot.com. Having the documentary blogspot has helped Sargeant to organise his video favourites found in the growing collection of free programs available at Google Video. Some of Rob Sargeant's favourites were created by students.
"I like the cinema veritie' style of documentary, with the shaky cameras and gritty sound tracks." Says Sargeant. "When the footage looks like it was hard to get, it makes it much more believable, less staged."
There are a number of quality free documentaries offered on Google Video, with new ones added daily. Most appear without much fanfare. This is provides a level playing field for the undiscovered talent out there. With a variety of low cost digital production options now available - thanks to Google Video - those filmmakers with good ideas and tenacity have a better chance at finding an audience for their productions.
