I have some (very closely held) video of certain specific things that he allowed to be filmed, but in general, no, didn't allow video no matter what your relationship with him. Part of it is that he just hates to watch himself on film.

understood,
My own teacher is much the same way until he hit his 90s then he allowed his group to film him using cell phones ect. maybe feeling that his
time was getting short.
He understood that much of what he did would not be understood and wished to keep his practice and those that practiced with him
in a quiet place allowing us to work on the work in peace.
As you I too have clips, the medium certainly has changed over the ys. vhs, cam, flash ect.
Time passes quickly for all of us
