Re: [ha-Safran] VHS and cassettes

2013-05-08 Thread Ergo Media
Harvey Sukenic clearly makes the case. VHS videos may not simply be reproduced. 
One should approach the copyright owner and either request permission to copy 
the VHS for a fee or purchase a new DVD copy. The key here is that you make 
“best effort” to contact either the copyright owner, the original distributor 
of that title or the company that now represents the film.  Copyright law is in 
place to allow creators to derive income from the works they produce.

Harvey,

In your understanding, would the library have the right to convert it to, 
let’s say MP4 format and place it on the server for the use on library 
computers?

It seems that if not protected appropriately, such a file would quickly 
leave the library… as a copy. Thus in fact the library would become in fact a 
legal source for illegal copies.

[ha-Safran] New Book: The American Jewish Story through Cinema

2013-04-11 Thread Ergo Media
We want to call your attention to the publication of Eric Goldman's new book, 
The American Jewish Story through Cinema (University of Texas Press).  By 
analyzing select mainstream films from the beginning of the sound era until 
today, Dr. Goldman's groundbreaking study uses the medium of cinema to provide 
an understanding of the American Jewish experience over the last century.

 

Eric will be giving book talks over the next few weeks.  Please join him at the 
Toronto Jewish Film Festival (4/14), 92nd street Y in NYC (4/17), Brandeis 
University (4/18), Jacob Burns Film Center (4/22) or the New Jersey Jewish Film 
Festival (4/24).  Dr. Goldman presents film clips that go back to the 1920s, 
demonstrating how cinema reflects the changing situation of Jews in America.

 

Dr. Goldman teaches cinema at Yeshiva University and the Jewish Theological 
Seminary and is president of Ergo Media.

Re: [ha-Safran] videotapes

Dear Aileen:

Though DVD is the now technology, there is no reason-especially if you cannot 
replace the VHS with DVD-  why you should not continue to use the VHS tapes you 
have, especially if it is a simple play all situation. People are too quick 
to throw out their totally good VHS players. So put the VHS tape into the 
player and play it until it no longer plays!

  I knew the day would come. Our religious school just cleaned out the closet 
and dumped several bags/boxes of VHS tapes in the library. Some have worthwhile

  Is there anything I can do with them besides throwing them out or unwinding 
and using for Sukkah decorations?

[ha-Safran] Suggested DVDs for Hanukkah!

2011-12-05 Thread Ergo Media
If you are looking for wonderful DVDs about Hanukkah for middle school, high 
school and even for adults, consider Emperors and Rebels: The Story of 
Hanukkah and The Eighth Day. Emperors and Rebels is in two 32 minute parts 
(on one DVD) and provides the historical background for the Maccabean Revolt 
and its aftermath. The Eighth Day is a great trigger film about the attempted 
Hellenization of the Jewish population at the time and sparks a great 
discussion about assimilation and the Hanukkah story.  Check out 
www.jewishvideo.com for more information.
