Kirsten,

Others can correct me, but I think ?? doesn?t quite work. In texts on Matsumoto?s ?For My Crushed Right Eye?, for instance, I?ve seen people just use ???????.

You need to get permission to show the film. Contact the Japanese
distributor, confirm that they have the international distribution rights,
and ask for permission???pleading poverty. I would straightaway just offer
what you think you can pay.

They probably won't care about the subtitling part; but if you tell them
that you purchased the official disc and will use that along with the
project subs, it does mean a lot less work for them (just getting the
money). It might help, actually.

(Offer to send your titles, although they'll already have their own.)

Don't bother asking about other materials.

Every distributor is different. Good luck.

Markus

Hi all,


I'm looking into getting screening rights for the film *Kazoku no kuni*,
and have never done this before. My undergraduates have subtitled the film
for my subtitling class, and I'd like to screen the film at our campus
cinema with their subtitles (there are no English subs on the DVD that I
bought in Japan, and the DVD doesn't seem to be available in the US). It
would be a really great chance to showcase their work.


My questions are:



Has anyone worked with a distributor on a similar request, and do I have a
snowball's chance that they will agree to this? Do I need to explicitly ask
them both for screening rights *and* for permission to use my own
subtitles? Do screening rights typically allow for explanatory information
like pamphlets, verbal explanations, or subs to be included with no special
requests? Are those different kinds of explanatory materials
considered distinct?



Thanks in advance for any advice!


Best,


Aragorn

Hi Kristen,

The catalog for the recent Japanese Expanded Cinema Revisited show at the
Tokyo Photographic Art Museum uses ???. It also seems to prefer
?????????????? rather than ??????????.

Can someone tell me what to call a ?looped? film in Japanese? I?m translating the following line for a short film installation piece and not sure if I?ve got it right. Your suggestions much appreciated.

Synchronized double-sided film installation with shared sound, 30 minutes, loop.

Dear friends,

The last book I edited has just been published. It has involved more than two years of work with some kinejapaners:

http://www.lexingtonbooks.com/isbn/9781498570152

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Dialectics-Goddess-Japanese-Audiovisual-Culture/dp/1498570143

You can find here the index, the introduction and some extract:

the other locations have changed, but the onsen itself still has the old-fashioned charme!

 Contemporary Japanese Women Filmmakers
Message-ID: <mailman.2438.1510067258.53916.kinejapan@lists.osu.edu>

Just wanted to draw Londoners attention to this forthcoming mini-season  at the end of November celebrating the work of contemporary Japanese women filmmakers who have emerged in the last fifteen years, with films by Naoko Ogigami, Satoko Yokohama, Miwa Nishikawa and others.

It's been curated by Irene Silvera Frischknecht in conjunction with the National Film and Television School and the Japan Foundation, with screenings dotted across various London venues.

All the films are free, but like all Japan Foundation events, booking is essential.

Thank you Quentin, Markus, Linda, Matteo for your postings.
YIDFF owes a lot to the praise it has received from the international 
community over the past 28 years -- many thanks to the overseas 
filmmakers, scholars, fellow festival organizers, film archivists, film 
activists, and all who have been a vital part of the Yamagata festival. 
Some would say we are again relying on "foreign authority" by wearing 
the UNESCO designation, but in any case hopefully this will keep the 
festival and other film activities in Yamagata going.
Fujioka Asako

This is really something to be proud of. Film doesn?t always get the recognition it deserves in the large Japanese arts awards. Hopefully this will help change that.

This is really great news, and for all sorts of reasons. In an age where it
seems nearly every documentary film festival has a market and/or pitching
sessions, Yamagata is centered on the films, film culture, and the world
itself. It so impressive. The festival is deeply subvented by the city of
Yamagata, and the UNESCO designation will help ensure they will keep
supporting it well into the future. Great!

Some group members have probably seen this from three + different sources already. I know this list's founders were also in on the origins of the Yamagata documentary festival, whilst many other readers have been minor or major contributors over the years, or just habitual attendees
But for those for whom this is news and interest, I think congratulations should go to the Yamagata people. Its not just the cumulation of the 25 years and more of the festival which has made the UNESCO recognition possible, but also the what must be the getting close on 10 years that the city has been tuning their submission and making their pitch for this.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Yamagata City designated UNESCO Creative City of Film
Joins international network to foster innovation and creativity


Yamagata, 31 October 2017 (Paris time) ? The Japanese city of 
Yamagata has been designated as member of the UNESCO Creative Cities 
Network. It is the first Japanese city to achieve the designation in 
the field of Film.

Yamagata, together with 63 other cities from 44 countries, will now 
join 116 existing member cities in the UNESCO Creative Cities 
Network (UCCN). With the designation, Yamagata will expand its 
exchange and collaboration with other UCCN member cities to further 
advance sustainable urban development by utilizing the film sector 
and its other cultural assets.

?I am delighted that Yamagata City has been designated the first 
Japanese City of Film under the UNESCO Creative Cities Network. I 
believe it is the active citizen participation in film culture, 
including the Yamagata International Documentary Film Festival, that 
was recognized and evaluated highly. I am determined to take this 
designation as a new beginning to embark on projects which combine 
Yamagata?s unique cultural assets and industries, in order to 
further stimulate local development. We shall deepen exchange with 
other membership cities and promote Yamagata across Japan and around 
the world. I wish to express my appreciation to all parties, 
including the citizens of Yamagata, for their support and 
activities, and ask for continued assistance in the future,? said 
Takahiro Sato, Mayor of Yamagata.

?So well deserved and can?t wait to be working with you,? said David 
Wilson, Director of Bradford UNESCO City of Film, UCCN?s first City 
of Film.

[Yamagata?s application]
Film has accompanied Yamagata throughout history. Film lovers 
brought movies back to this regional city right after World War II, 
and this special affection for film is alive to this day.
There are 21 commercial screens for a city of 250,000 ? including 
art-house films and documentary, the diversity of international 
films seen in this city is exemplary. Yamagata International 
Documentary Film Festival (YIDFF), Asia?s first international film 
festival to specialize in documentary, was launched in Yamagata in 
1989, and this biennial event now gathers 24,000 admissions, 
inviting 150 filmmakers and professionals from around the globe ? a 
valuable forum to discuss the state of the world and cinema. Films 
from the festival are archived in the Yamagata Documentary Film 
Library, where over 14,500 can be viewed for research purposes. 
After the devastating 2011 earthquake in eastern Japan, the Library 
began a commemorative archive for documentaries about the disaster. 
The Yamagata Film Commission has effectively promoted surrounding 
regions for professional filming, providing free support and 
services to generate an economic worth of over 227,000 USD in the 
past five years. Young people who study film at the Tohoku 
University of Art & Design move on after graduation to become 
important pillars in the Japanese film industry. Through these 
activities, which have stimulated the local economy and culture, 
Yamagata has become known to the world as a City of Film.

The city also prides a wide range of cultural assets outside of the 
film field. It is home to the only professional symphony orchestra 
in northeastern Japan, and the Yamagata Museum of Art which owns a 
prized collection of French modern paintings. The Yamadera temple is 
known for its association with the haiku master Basho; unique 
culinary traditions associated with maiko entertainment are carried 
on; the Tohoku University of Art & Design brightens the inner city 
with contemporary art by hosting the Yamagata Biennale; Ironcasting 
and bladesmithing are traditional crafts that are treasured to this 
day. Yamagata shall strategically combine these cultural resources 
with the film medium as pillar, to promote the development of the city.

[Upcoming plans]
With the designation, Yamagata will further collaboration with UCCN 
member cities in its planned action plans.? Yamagata will:
- open film to the uninitiated, widen world views, and train people 
to take leadership roles in culture
- foster empathy and appreciation for multiformity among youngsters 
through film education
- support filmmakers from developing countries and enhance 
opportunities to complete and show their work in Artists-in-Residencies
- reaffirm Yamagata?s traditions while sharing the joy of film with 
cities in developing countries
- inspire understanding for the Creative Cities concept and 
strengthen collaboration among Network cities through international 
conferences
