Re: [Videolib] Looking for Common Ground

I don't know anything specific about this title, but old made for TV movies are particularly hard to track down and often were never released on video and have not much hope of going to DVD. I do know the Lorimar library is particularly messed up rights wise. On Mon, Jan 24, 2011 at 10:15 AM,

[Videolib] Looking for Black Girl

Hello everyone, I'm trying to locate Ossie Davis's 1972 film Black Girl, a Lee Savin Productions film. Does any one know if this title is, or has ever been, commercially available? Thanks! -lisa Music Media Librarian Howard-Tilton Memorial Library Tulane University

Re: [Videolib] FW: Re: Filmakers Library acquired by Alexander Street Press

Hi Gary, Just to set your mind further at ease Filmakers Library will be continuing to acquire quality films as we have for the last 40 years. The staff here, Linda Gottesman and Andrea Traubner and I will remain and continue acquisition with the encouragement of ASP. Now we can offer

Re: [Videolib] FW: Re: Filmakers Library acquired by Alexander Street Press

Thanks, Sue I get nervous easily these days. I like Alexander Street Press, generally, and think they'll do right by you...IF, as I am reassured, they will offer streaming of single-titles, rather than requiring the purchase of whole collections or sub-collections. I'll be curious to see what

Re: [Videolib] Looking for Black Girl

It was released by Cinerama, which was part of ABC which now part of Disney, but I have no idea if they still own it and they clearly have not released it. On Mon, Jan 24, 2011 at 4:10 PM, Hooper, Lisa K lhoop...@tulane.edu wrote: Hello everyone, I’m trying to locate Ossie Davis’s 1972 film

Re: [Videolib] Need advice on pricing tech specs for streaming rights

Well it is a question of if the titles are ones you would want to stream, ones that are or would be used in classes. Otherwise it is not worth paying for the rights whether you do the work or access it. Actually a number of the films I am talking about are classics ( Chaplin, Melies, Fairbanks)

[Videolib] language from vendors

Hi all, Out of curiosity, not wanting to open pandoras box (it may be inevitable) When a vendor (ie, First Run) uses non-theatrical public performance OR When a vendor (ie, Film Media Group) uses public performance allowed how are you defining non-theatrical PPR v. PPR. thanks, lorraine wochna

Re: [Videolib] language from vendors

I think that is just semantics. Nobody is selling films to theaters for public performances. That is strictly rental. However MY can of worms is why so many non theatrical licenses have a limit of 50 people. I have no idea why that number. I would think it would be great if you get 100 people on a
