Hopefully the example searches above have given you a good enough background to get started using the Advanced Search. As you can see, the Advanced Search uses a simple, logic based, English-style query syntax, a syntax we call clipLanguage. Using clipLanguage, you have the ability to write highly complex queries with just a few simple search terms, allowing you to slice the extensive data in the clipREAL database any way that you want.

Please contact us if you have any questions on syntax or how to perform a specific query.
