Andrea,
I've put together an index of Iron Smelting videos on the following website.
I think there are currently ten videos in the list, most of them document
African Smelts. Each one of them has its own intrigue and all of them are
delicious to watch.

The page also contains a links to 50 or more experimental bloomery smelting
websites.
Enjoy
