Digital Film

" The overwhelming majority of feature films are under copyright.

Copyright has (in its original form) limits:

– Published before 1923, the work is in the Public Domain (PD).

– Works created after January 1, 1978, are copyrighted for the life of the author (in film, often considered the Studio) plus 70 years.

– Works published from 1923 to 1963: copyright holds for 28 years, renewable up to 67 years. There are other variations, but these are the most pertinent."

Also, I've never heard of having a database for one particular movie. That's weird.


That was the most interesting part of the read for today. In other news, I can't think because its 28 DEGREES OUTSIDE AND THAT'S REALLY COLD.
