Scope Note:

"Street videos" or "street tapes" were born and thrived during the late 1960s to mid-1970s. The style consisted of hand-held camerawork (1/2 in. reel portapaks) using only available light. The content of "street" videos concentrated on spontaneous interviews with people from all walks of life, in streets, workplaces, and in the community.
