[Videolib] Face to face teaching Question
Good Morning, I am trying to purchase a set of dvds from a company who seems to have their own definition of what is allowed with face to face teaching. Here is what one must agree to when checking out online. (among other things). Public Performance / Fair Use: Unless authorized in writing, our courses are NOT licensed Public Performance, such as showing in a classroom. However, we consider less than a total of 30 minutes of classroom display as Fair Use, and actually a kind of PR, so thank you very much! But for longer use, we kindly ask that you get a Public Performance License. Just to clarify, we would be happy to pay the extra $150 for a PPR license but this is what they define as PPR. In the Shop menu select Public Performance Licenses - Single Teacher, and add to your shopping cart. Does anyone have an suggestions as to how to approach this. I am unable to find the material anywhere else. Thanks for your help with this.

Rudy, You should consider attending National Media Market in October. www.nmm.net There are many company's representing their independent/educational films. It's a great way to find many of these more obscure films in one place. Plus you can talk to your other colleagues in person about what they have seen that they like.

Re: [Videolib] Face to face teaching Question
This comes up a lot. For what it is worth there is a good chance these folks sincerely believe this and have no understanding of copyright law and the face to face exemption. I have met a significant number of directors and producers of independent films who honestly believe that there is actually some legal category of educational use which stipulates that institutions must pay more than individuals or to be more precise that institutions must pay to use films in an actual class. However, as a practical matter they can insist on anything they want by contract, it would just be better if they made it clear that this their condition for selling the film and has nothing to do with Fair Use or copyright laws. You could always send them the face to face teaching section of the copyright law but in the end they own the film exclusively and can determine the terms of sale. I would however use this as a reminder that if you don't need PPR, you should always check to make sure if the film is available from a place where you don't have to purchase it at the higher PPR price.

[Videolib] NMM takes the Odessa Steps by strategy
I never noticed some of the tracking shots in that Odessa Steps sequence -- the shot from within the crowd coming down the steps, for instance. It just jumped out at me today. The tracking of the pram is cut in so quickly it's almost imperceptible, esp. seeing with eyes that have been conditioned to see with today's assumptions. There are myriad homages, quotes and parodies that fifteen minutes on The Googles can bring up. Here is a mash-up done by the Pet Shop Boys from their Potemkin project. Apparently Eisenstein thought the score should be rewritten every 20 years or so. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qt16V3N-o18 randal baier ghand...@library.berkeley.edu wrote: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Battleship_Potemkin gh Speaking of the National Media Market.

Re: [Videolib] NMM takes the Odessa Steps by strategy
Not to mention Parodies/homages to the Odessa Steps scene in Sergei Eisenstein's Battleship Potemkin: Bananas (Woody Allen, 1971) Features a parody of the Odessa Steps scene from S. Eisenstein's film Battleship Potemkin. Brazil (Terry Gilliam, 1985)[The] big Odessa moment comes near the end, when Pryce and co-star Robert De Niro attempt to make their getaway down a seemingly endless flight of stairs. On this occasion, the imperilled pram is substituted for a futuristic vacuum cleaner that slips its leash and barrels down behind them. [Brooks, Xan. Battleship Spotting. The Guardian, Friday 1 February 2008] The Untouchables (Brian DePalma, 1987) Easily the best known of the Eisenstein rip-offs, The Untouchables' grand finale worked so well that director Brian De Palma repeated the trick a few years later on Carlito's Way. De Palma, in fact, might be the most referential major director - Hitchcock recreations crop up all over his films, and Blow Out is a homage to Blow Up. [Brooks, Xan. Battleship Spotting. The Guardian, Friday 1 February 2008] The Naked Gun 331/3: The Final Insult (Peter Segal, 1994) ...throws in machine-gunning nannies, the Pope, the president ... and not one, not two, but four runaway prams. By the time the sequence wraps up, it's raining babies all over the building and even Leslie Nielsen is screaming. [Brooks, Xan. Battleship Spotting. The Guardian, Friday 1 February 2008] Joshua (George Ratliff, 2007) Monstrous little boy attempts to push his little sister (in a pram) down museum steps Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005) While it surely sailed clean over the heads of most of its audience, the scene in which Clone troopers march on the Jedi temple is a straight lift from the steps sequence, the lone difference being that the soldiers are marching up the steps, not down. [Brooks, Xan. Battleship Spotting. The Guardian, Friday 1 February 2008] Steps (Zbigniew Rybczynski, 1987) A group of Americans invade the famous stair sequence of the Eisenstein film Battleship Potemkin. DVD 2243 I never noticed some of the tracking shots in that Odessa Steps sequence -- the shot from within the crowd coming down the steps, for instance. It just jumped out at me today. The tracking of the pram is cut in so quickly it's almost imperceptible, esp. seeing with eyes that have been conditioned to see with today's assumptions. There are myriad homages, quotes and parodies that fifteen minutes on The Googles can bring up. Here is a mash-up done by the Pet Shop Boys from their Potemkin project. Apparently Eisenstein thought the score should be rewritten every 20 years or so. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qt16V3N-o18 randal baier ghand...@library.berkeley.edu wrote: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Battleship_Potemkin gh Speaking of the National Media Market.

A very small number of the titles enumerated in the list may no longer be available as individual dvds but can be purchased as part of larger sets---for example, *Watch on the Rhine* comes as part of of The Bette Davis Collection, Part 3 ; likewise, one can secure *A Member of the Wedding *by purchasing the Stanley Kramer FilmsCollection.
