If I’m getting you right you’re talking about a sequence at the beginning of 
the TV program,
showing the protagonists, often mixed with Motion Graphics and music?
And that sequence would appear at the beginning of each episode, right?
When I was working in a German TV channel (2000-2009), they were calling them 
the “Signation”.
But I think the term might differ from country to country or even from channel 
to channel.
I hope that helps...

Interestingly I saw the LFMC print of Kodak Ghost Poems as a student at

Thanks for this, Rise. It’s good to know Kodak was civilized. Maybe this 
information is in Scott’s interview with Andrew, but if not, it is now a matter 
of record. Of the many life-works of artists’ cinema that deserve restoration 
and wide recognition, Andrew’s certainly ranks among the very best.

Re: [Frameworks] Andrew Noren

2015-06-12 Thread Rise Hall-Noren
Dear Gene,

To clarify the record, Eastman Kodak did send Andrew a letter in late 1973
or early 1974, which very politely requested that he change the title of
Part I, since Kodak was a protected trademark.  I still remember when we
received the letter, which is in our files, and there was a small exchange
of correspondence in which Andrew promised to immediately make the change
and follow up to track down any prints.

Of course, when a major US corporation sends a letter that they wish to
protect  their registered trademark, at the time to a very poor artist, the
threat of a lawsuit was implied.

Perhaps a year or so later, Kodak's Legal Dept. sent another letter that
concerned a bootleg print of Part I, now known to us as "Huge Pupils", that
travelled through Europe for 4-5 years that he and the London Coop had
never been able to track down.  At the end of that period, the London Coop
somehow managed to get their hands on it, and Andrew requested that they
destroy it, as it was in terrible condition.  No one ever wants their work
exhibited that way.

Just for the record, Kodak showed nothing but courtesy and restraint, and
they did own the trademark, after all.
