Yes, Diane, thanks for posting these! They are very helpful.
I do have a couple of questions. On Scenario 2, Jane creates the work description (based on an ONYX record) for the work, creates work records for the individual part, creates expression record for each work, then uses the ONYX record to create a manifestation record for the collection. Is there an expression-level record for the collection? Or would this be skipped. Scenario 3. Jane creates additional work, expression, and manifestation record for the screenplay. WOuld this happen only if the screenplay is published separately from the film? Or are you considering the film to be "based on" the screenplay the same way the screenplay is based on a book? (so logically one would assume a screenplay to be a prexisting work and always need a work record?) I'm not sure one would routinely want to do this. In this case is Jane creating the work, expression, and manifestation records for the online version? So she's decided to catalog that too? Or am i misunderstanding that? And I hate to be a broken record, but in films Actors would be associated with the work, not the expression. They are not going to reshoot the film with different actors. (ok, in case anybody knows about them, i'm ignoring the early talkie films which were simultaneously shot in different language versions with casts that are sometimes the same, sometimes different--they are borderline cases. I would not consider the shot for shot remake of Psycho a borderline case) thanks, greta
