Title: Re: [Videolib] Doing Business in China?

Thanks, Benjamin and Elizabeth. We do own some of those titles; we're looking for something more along the lines of business etiquette for doing business cross-culturally. I've only found some that are out of print, and some international firms who only sell this kind of media as part of a consulting package. Any other ideas would be much appreciated. Debbie Hmmmm, That’s very specific, but I would recommend taking a look at the trailers for Manufactured Landscapes and Up the Yangtze. Manufactured Landscapes: http://www.zeitgeistfilms.com/film.php?directoryname=manufacturedlandscapes&mode=educational Up the Yangtze: http://www.zeitgeistfilms.com/film.php?directoryname=uptheyangtze&mode=educational Also our new film Last Train Home hits on this issue a bit. Coming to theaters next Friday!! http://www.zeitgeistfilms.com/lasttrainhome/ Remember all our educational titles now come with streaming rights automatically. :) Best, Benjamin Crossley-Marra Director of Non-Theatrical Distribution Zeitgeist Films Ltd. 247 Centre St, 2nd fl New York, NY 10013 P: (212) 274-1989 C: (607) 765-7511 F: (212) 274-1644 http://www.zeitgeistfilms.com On 8/27/10 2:59 PM, "Elizabeth Stanley" <elizab...@bullfrogfilms.com> wrote: Hello, Deborah, Bullfrog Films offers "China Blue" DVD, that links the power of the US consumer market to the daily lives of a Chinese factory owner and young factory workers. It provides a rare glimpse at China's rapid transformation into a free market society.  See link and trailer below. CHINA BLUE  http://www.bullfrogfilms.com/catalog/china.html "China Blue offers an illuminating window onto the normally hidden worlds of global production. It provides unparalleled access to the everyday lives of garment workers in China, giving them voice, and giving a face to the reality underlying China's emergence as the factory floor to the world. For those interested in globalization, economic development, or current controversies around sweatshops, China Blue is an excellent introduction to the experiences of workers from developing countries - even those supposedly 'winning' through globalization."

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.
