Re: [Videolib] Collecting student film productions - Question about distribution

[Stanton, Kim]

Hi everyone,

Thanks for the on and off-list replies.

We’re trying to get students in our Film Department (undergrad and MFA) to 
start more systematically donating their films to the library at the end of 
each semester. The student retains the copyright to films produced as part of a 
class assignment. Over the past few years several of our MFA students’ films 
have been distributed in the educational or home video market. The MFA 
Coordinator is concerned that if her students start giving a copy of their film 
to the library it might later affect their festival/ theatrical/ distribution 
plans in some way.

Do any distributors or nontheatrical folks want to chime in on the type of 
embargos you might require from a filmmakers. I’ve heard back from one 
educational vendors that this would not affect their agreement with the 
filmmaker at all.  Any librarians have experience with this?

Thanks!
Kim

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.

We collect thesis films/videos that are from the MFA program in the School
of Communication - one copy for Archives and a circulating copy. We've also
added a few other odds and ends - for instance, a collection of short
documentaries about the 2008 New Hampshire primary that were made as a
class project. These are all streaming but usually we just keep DVD
copies.  Here's the catalog record for the New Hampshire project:

Re: [Videolib] Collecting student film productions

Kim,
Before the MTSU Media Library merged into Walker Library, it did not collect 
student video projects of any type. Since Walker Library did not routinely 
collect a/v materials prior to incorporating the Media Library, I doubt that 
they kept student video projects on file, either. If they are kept somewhere on 
campus, I know neither where nor by whom.

Thanks,
Gail

Hi all,

Do any of you actively collect films produced by the students at your 
institution that were made as part of a class assignment?  I'm thinking 
specifically of final finished works that come out of your Film Department or a 
thesis film (from any discipline).

Thanks,
