[Videolib] PPR Yellowstone: Battle for Life

2014-04-07 Thread Elizabeth Peterson
Hello everyone. I am trying to help a faculty member locate the appropriate
source for securing public performance rights to the
documentaryYellowstone: Battle for Life, produced and distributed by BBC
Television. Here is the entry in Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/Yellowstone-Battle-Life-Peter-Firth/dp/B002EWD0CW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8qid=1396911162sr=8-1keywords=yellowstone+battle+for+life

Any insights and/or suggestions would be most welcome. Thank you in advance.

regards,
Elizabeth

[Videolib] PPR for It's a Wonderful Life

2013-10-03 Thread Elizabeth Peterson
I apologize if this question has already been asked in the past on this
list. We are planning a public screening event of It's a Wonderful Life
(Frank Capra, 1946) on campus in a few months, and since it doesn't seem to
fall under Swank's jurisdiction, I'm not sure where to find the public
performance rights for this film. The film's Wikipedia entry suggests it
might be in the public domain since the copyright was mistakenly not
renewed in the late 1960s, although the estate of Philip Van Doren Stern,
who wrote the story the movie is based on, has contested current
distribution without a fee.

This will be a library-sponsored event, so I'd like to make we cover this.
Thanks for any insights!

best,
Elizabeth

 Short answer Criterion Pictures USA should have it. It is now owned by
 Paramount which they rep.

 Hello,
 
 I’m posting this for a liaison colleague - Can anyone think of a movie where 
 the plot has a strong theme of seeking information or searching for the 
 answer to something?  Problem solving through evidence, etc?  Preferably a 
 high-brow or classic type movie.  This is for a professor who likes to use 
 classic movies to illustrate certain academic concepts.
 
 Thanks!

 Hi.  I am assisting a patron researching box office data related to animated

 Most of the shorts were released in blocks with features during this time.
 Any suggestion for sources of this paring?  I do have numerous chronologies

 Thanks for any assistance!

Re: [Videolib] Society for Cinema and Media Studies

2012-07-30 Thread Elizabeth Peterson
Hi Kim. I have attended the SCMS conference recently and found it very  
interesting and worthwhile to attend as a librarian. There are many  
panels that address teaching, research, and collections issues,  
primarily from a faculty standpoint. The attendees are friendly, and  
the size of the conference is manageable. I have been told from a  
number of SCMS members that they would welcome the contributions of  
librarians to the organization, and I think there would be room for a  
librarians' interest group. I would be interested to hear from other  
cinema and media studies librarians who might like to work toward this  
goal as well. It would be worth posting your question to the camslib  
listserv (https://lists.carleton.edu/info/camslib), whose audience is  
cinema and media studies librarians, to hear their feedback.


best,
Elizabeth
