"We are still around the 50 per cent penetration of US households in DVDs -- it's still a very fast growing consumer product. ANd I think we're still somewhere in the high teens/low 20 per cent penetration of DVDs internationally, so we feel confident there's still a lot of growth left in the whole category."; -- Simon Bush, Chief Exec. Australian Visual Software Distributors Association - "It took the industry a bit by suprise because the home entertainment arms of the movie houses have traditionally been the poor cousins..."; -- Brendan Lyons - Media Analyst Goldman Sachs. "The sale of TV shows on DVD has also been a major plus for Fox Film. This is especially the case for older series (The Simpsons/X-Files), which would have little cost allocation against them." But Mr Lyons also believes highly popular film DVDs will dampen future TV ratings of those films. "Consumers will only watchh a film a certain number of times, irrespective of the medium," he said."

Though much of Hollywood's engagement with the law occurs offstage, in the larger theater of copyright, many of Hollywood's valued treasures - from Modern Times (1936) to Star Wars (1977) - cannot be fully understood without appreciating their legal controversies. Peter Decherney shows that the history of intellectual property in Hollywood has not always mirrored the evolution of the law and recounts these extralegal solutions and their impact on American media and culture." - BOOK BLURBNotes: Contains list of illustrations and indexISBN: 9780231159470

AUSTRALIA ; LEGISLATION. AUSTRALIA ; PIRACY. AUSTRALIA Summary: "This paper sets out the background to moral rights and the present forms of protection in Australia and examines Australia's legal obligations under the Berne Convention for the Protection of Literary and Artistic Works. It also outlines the majority and minority recommendations of the Copyright Law Review Committee in its 1988 Report on Moral Rights, developments in Australia since the Report, the particular problems of Aboriginal artists, and comparisons of legislation in the United Kingdom, United States, Canada and France. The impact of new technology is also addressed. It then outlines a possible moral rights legislative regime for Australia in respect to each of the relevant categories of copyright creators covered by the Berne Convention. In summary, the proposed scheme would involve an amendment to the Copyright Act to accord relevant copyright creators the right of attribution and the right of integrity." - FROM INTRODUCTIONNotes: At head of title: Discussion paper -- "Prepared by officers in the Attorney-General's Department, in conjunction with officers in the Department of Communications and the Arts"ISBN: 0642208107

Shadow economies of cinema : mapping informal film distribution / Ramon Lobato London: Palgrave macmillan [on behalf of the] bfi, 2012.
Call No: 301.76 LOBAuthor: Lobato, Ramon Source: UKPlace: LondonPublisher: Palgrave macmillan [on behalf of the] bfiPubDate: 2012PhysDes: viii, 168 p. ; 24 cmSeries: Cultural histories of cinemaSubject: DISTRIBUTION ; PIRACY ; DIGITAL DISTRIBUTION ; COPYRIGHT ; INTERNET Summary: "How do people access movies today?; What are the most popular and powerful channels for media distribution on a global scale?; How are film industries changing in the face of media convergence and digitisation?
To answer questions such as these, argues Ramon Lobato, we must shift our gaze away from the legal film business and toward cinema's shadow economies. All around the world, films are bought from roadside stalls, local markets, and grocery stores; they are illegally downloaded and streamed; they are watched in makeshift video clubs, on street corners, and in restaurants, shops and bars. International film culture in its actually-existing forms is a messy affair; and it relies to a great extent on black and grey media markets. Examining the industrial dynamics of these subterranean film networks across a number of different sites-from Los Angeles to Lagos, Melbourne to Mexico City-this book shows how they constitute a central rather than marginal part of audiovisual culture and commerce.
Combining film industry analysis with cultural theory, Shadow Economies of Cinema opens up a new area of inquiry for cinema studies, putting industry research into dialogue with wider debates about economic informality and commodity circulation. Written in an accessible style, this book offers an original 'bottom-up' perspective on the global cinema industry for researchers and students in film studies, cultural studies, and media and communications."-BOOK BLURBNotes: includes appendix: Film Distribution Research Guide; includes bibliographical references; includes indexISBN: 9781844574117Contents: Machine generated contents note: Why distribution? -- Formal and informal film economies -- Shadows, sites and circuits -- 1.Distribution from Above and Below -- Redefining distribution: theory and practice -- Distribution from below -- The cultural politics of distribution -- Conclusion -- 2.The Straight-to-video Slaughterhouse -- `Anything with sprocket holes' -- The STV aesthetic -- Transnational STV circuits -- Shooting and selling STV action in the Asia-Pacific -- The slaughterhouse of cinema -- Conclusion -- 3.Informal Media Economies -- The formal and the informal -- The centrality of informality -- Informal economies of cinema -- Informality, cinema and the state -- Between formal and informal distribution: Tropa de elite -- 4.Nollywood at Large -- A short history of the Nigerian video boom -- The formalising imperative -- Formalising international distribution -- Conclusion -- 5.Six Faces of Piracy -- Copyright and the construction of piracy -- Piracy as theft --
