Yes, we confirm with them that the uses of the music in the videos means it
free as well.

Hey Itzik,

very nice, thanks for sharing!

Can you confirm that the music used is also free? It is so generally
appliccable, that the raw music files might also be useful to upload as
such.

Best,
Lodewijk

[Wikimedia-l] Wikimedia Israel and the Israeli News Company bring new video content to the Wikimedia projects

2016-07-07 Thread Itzik - Wikimedia Israel 
Hi,

We happy announce a new partnership with the Israeli News Company, which
produces the primetime news program on Israel’s Channel 2. For the past 23
years, Channel 2 News has covered the history of Israel and the Middle
East, as well as events around the world.

The partnership is aiming to introduce a hundred new video files

 on current affairs to be added, remixed, and shared on the Wikimedia
projects. Videos cover footage from important historical events like the Oslo
Accords
,
the Israel–Jordan
peace treaty

,Jerusalem and the Western Wall
, the Dead
Sea  and
even videos of Japan
and India
, footage
of Israeli leaders such as Prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu

, President Reuven (Ruvi) Rivlin
,
former *President *Shimon Peres
 and
more
