It looks great! Finally a web resource for serious researchers... Congratulations! Good luck with your books. All of us are so appreciative especially from one so well respected in the industry and one who knows the art of production research as well.
Much more than a how-to, Archival Storytelling is filled with advice and insight from filmmakers, archivists, film researchers, music supervisors, intellectual property experts, insurance executives and others. The book defines key terms—copyright, fair use, public domain, orphan works and more—and challenges filmmakers to become not only archival users but also activists, ensuring their ongoing ability as creators to draw on the cultural materials that surround them.
Featuring conversations with industry leaders including Patricia Aufderheide, Hubert Best, Peter Jaszi, Jan Krawitz, Lawrence Lessig, Stanley Nelson, Rick Prelinger, Geoffrey C. Ward and many others.
