On a related Nollywood note: http://explorechicago.org/city/en/things_see_do/event_landing/events/dca_tourism/moviemojo.html
Anyone close to Chicago might find this exhibit of Nollywood posters (painted on flour sacks) interesting and really nuts. Lots of lightning coming out of eyes and hands and some guy with a strong resemblance to the Creature from the Black Lagoon. There are clips one can view from such classics as "I married a Witch and "Axe of Vengence". THere is also a film series. Chicago Cultural Center. Free.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
