[Videolib] National Media Market - Call for Questions

2016-10-11 Thread Sarah E. McCleskey
On Wednesday, October 26 at 6:00 pm, NMM conference participants can ask a 
panel of NMM's exhibitors the questions they have about film distribution.  For 
example,
* How do NMM Exhibiting Partners select films for distribution?
* How can vendors collaborate with librarians to promote content to end 
users?
* How do vendors approach screenings when they know the advertising 
organization has not secured public performance rights?
Conference registrants and others who are interested can submit questions in 
advance for our panel representing Exhibiting Partners.
Submit your questions to the moderator by clicking on this 
form
 before midnight on Tuesday, October 25.

Thanks, and we look forward to seeing you in Baltimore in a few weeks! For 
those who are not able to attend, panel moderator Meghann Matwichuk will share 
her summary of this session with the VideoLib listserv.

2015-10-23 Thread Threatt, Monique Louise
Hello,

So good to see everyone at the National Media Market.  Kudos to the Board of 
Directors for another wonderful year.

I really enjoyed our little informal get-together to express ideas to improve 
Market.

This is a friendly reminder to send your discussion ideas to Cindy 
Badilla-Melendez for possible inclusion at Market in Baltimore!  (yaaay!)

It was suggested that we have both formal, and informal discussion groups to 
address our many concerns.  It was also suggested that we bring back the hot 
topic round tables!

I know I have tons of ideas for Cindy, and I would be willing to collaborate 
with anyone to address case study use of using streaming in the classroom. :)

The NMM is very cozy, all within a single hotel. You literally sit down

their products might of use. You can preview as much or as little as you
want of all the films.

Heck yes, you want to petition to go, Celia!  I would second all of the 
positive comments I've read so far, but I especially wanted to address what 
Matt has said here.  Even for our small school of slightly over 900 students 
(with a proportionally small materials budget compared to the big 
institutions), I am one who has ended up saved hundreds of dollars on video 
purchases even after deducting the expenses associated with NMM attendance.

Cecilia! Last October's NMM in Las Vegas was the second one I ever 
attended: and I found it a great
library conference. Wonderful programs, wonderful networking 
opportunities--with both fellow
media librarians and with vendors. And did I mention wonderful social 
get-togethers? And then--last, but not

least--terrific opportunities to purchase films at substantial discount.

By all means, go!

Cheers!

Hi Cecilia

As an avid (albeit somewhat irregular) NMM-goes, I would heartily
recommend it for a number of reasons.  It's an excellent way to find out
about (and preview) new and interesting content.  Great way to meet
distributors and make contacts.  Wonderful means of hobnobbing with a
merry band of video librarian folk.  Interesting presentations.  And,
well, it's just plain fun.

Hope you go for it.

Anyone go to last year's National Media Market in October in Las Vegas?  I'm 
trying to find out whether it's something I should petition to go to or not.

Gary, Anthony, Maureen and others have already identified myriad good
reasons to attend.  I can't say much more than repeat what they have said.

That said... It's also a great opportunity for public libraries to expand
their collections beyond feature films and television DVDs, to see the
broad coverage of topics including environmental issues (e.g. Bullfrog),
careers (e.g Landmark), media awareness (e.g Media Education Foundation),
social issues (e.g. Icarus) and streaming collections options (e.g.
Alexander Street  Films Media Group)

It was at NMM meetings that selectors and distributors hashed out in open
dialogue out some of the big concerns re: streaming rights (thanx in no
small part to Gary)

There is a call for presentations out now for the professional development
sessions this fall.  Perhaps you have perspectives on media collection
development in the public library sphere you could share?

By the way I became a media librarian because I was inspired by the
Suburban Audio Visual Service (SAVS) operated by Suburban and North
Suburban Library Systems.  As the van driver for ILL deliveries I stopped
at Niles Public Library daily. With my big canvas bags full of 16mm
films...

[Videolib] National Media Market update

2011-10-24 Thread Ursula Schwarz
For those of you who couldn¹t attend the Market this year -

The Best of Show award was given to First Run Features for Jane¹s Journey.

About the film:
It would be hard to name anyone who has had more of an impact in the realm
of animal research and wildlife conservation than Jane Goodall, whose 45
year study of wild chimpanzees in Africa is legendary.  In Jane's Journey,
we travel with her across several continents, from her childhood home in
England, to the Gombe National Park in Tanzania where she began her
groundbreaking research and where she still returns every year to enjoy the
company of the chimpanzees that made her famous.  Featuring a wide range of
interviews and spectacular footage from her own private collection
(including her years in Gombe), Jane's Journey is an inspiring portrait of
the private person behind the world-famous icon.

You can see a 7-minute clip on the NMM website

This is also one of the few conferences where attendees can make up  
the cost of attending through the discounts they receive.

I have for years.
