Re: [Videolib] Beyonce's Lemonade

2016-07-12 Thread Jessica Rosner
I doubt the copyright claim prevented any DVD release. Even if the case has
merit is tends to be in the interest of both sides to keep sales going. Its
really an unusual claim though as it seems directed mainly at the TRAILER
so that could have caused a delay or issue in the DVD availability. I am
curious if that is part of the Amazon package.

Hi All,

Since the Beyonce Lemonade long-form video aired on HBO, I've been 
keeping an eye out for a DVD release.  I know I'll be asked to 
purchase it for course use soon, but haven't yet seen anything pop up 
regarding hard copy availability.  I do see three libraries that 
appear to have the DVD via Worldcat (and it actually appears to be a 
DVD, not the audio CD which has a short video clip included as a 
bonus).  But, no luck finding a source.  I did notice the following 
today via Wikipedia 
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemonade_%28Beyonc%C3%A9_album%29>:


"Lawsuit:  In June 2016, it was reported filmmaker Matthew Fulks sued 
Beyoncé, Sony, Columbia and Parkwood Entertainment for allegedly 
lifting elements of his short film, Palinoia, for Lemonade. The 
lawsuit specifically targets the trailer for the HBO special. Fulks 
claims executives and creatives involved in Lemonade were aware of his 
work and had access to Palinoia. Fulks said he was previously 
contacted about the opportunity to direct a video by the 
Columbia-signed musical group MS MR and his clips — including Palinoia 
— were sent to various people at the label, including frequent Beyoncé 
director, Bryan Younce. Fulks further claimed that in July 2015, 
Younce invited him to submit a video treatment to Columbia for 
consideration. Filming for Lemonade began five months later."


Wondering if this might be a part of the delay in making this 
available -- there was also a notation re: a future Emmy push that 
makes me wonder if the intent is to release it as something of a 
campaign closer to then.  At any rate, I thought I'd reach out to the 
Collective Brain to see if anyone had any possible suggestions.

We just purchased Beyonce's Lemonade from Amazon. The DVD is included with the 
"Audio CD" version.  The DVD is the second disc, although Amazon doesn't make 
this very clear in their description. It's the full hour-long film, not clips.

It doesn't seem to be available as a DVD only purchase.


Here's the one we ordered:

Hi All,

Since the Beyonce Lemonade long-form video aired on HBO, I've been keeping an 
eye out for a DVD release.  I know I'll be asked to purchase it for course use 
soon, but haven't yet seen anything pop up regarding hard copy availability.  I 
do see three libraries that appear to have the DVD via Worldcat (and it 
actually appears to be a DVD, not the audio CD which has a short video clip 
included as a bonus).  But, no luck finding a source.  I did notice the 
following today via 
Wikipedia<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemonade_%28Beyonc%C3%A9_album%29>:

"Lawsuit:  In June 2016, it was reported filmmaker Matthew Fulks sued Beyoncé, 
Sony, Columbia and Parkwood Entertainment for allegedly lifting elements of his 
short film, Palinoia, for Lemonade. The lawsuit specifically targets the 
trailer for the HBO special. Fulks claims executives and creatives involved in 
Lemonade were aware of his work and had access to Palinoia. Fulks said he was 
previously contacted about the opportunity to direct a video by the 
Columbia-signed musical group MS MR and his clips - including Palinoia - were 
sent to various people at the label, including frequent Beyoncé director, Bryan 
Younce. Fulks further claimed that in July 2015, Younce invited him to submit a 
video treatment to Columbia for consideration. Filming for Lemonade began five 
months later."

Wondering if this might be a part of the delay in making this available -- 
there was also a notation re: a future Emmy push that makes me wonder if the 
intent is to release it as something of a campaign closer to then.  At any 
rate, I thought I'd reach out to the Collective Brain to see if anyone had any 
possible suggestions.

Thanks in advance,
