Tom Beneke Vice President, Enrollment Management and Student Development Using Your Student Handbook The Student Handbook is designed as a reference book or resource to be consulted and used as needed. Like any other learning tool (dictionary, thesaurus, the Yellow Pages), some students will use it frequently; others rarely. It is not meant to be read from cover to cover by everyone; rather, it is designed to have readily available information students might require at any time on the policies, procedures, services and activities at Iowa Central. Successful students use a variety of tools to enhance their performance. They know where to look for information to make decisions. They learn what the College expects of them and what they can expect of the College. The Student Handbook is instrumental in allowing students to find the answers to their questions and to take charge of their education. We suggest you skim through the Table of Contents to become familiar with the topics. When you have a specific question, you’ll know where to start. The second half of the handbook consists of a daily calendar that you may find helpful to keep track of appointments, assignments and other important dates. We hope you find this resource to be helpful. If you are unable to find the information you need, remember that Iowa Central faculty and staff are another valuable resource ready to help—ask someone! If we don’t know the answer, we’ll help you find it. The information in this book was the best available at press time. Watch for additional information and changes.

  • Coronavirus and the European Film Industry
    BRIEFING Coronavirus and the European film industry SUMMARY With the onset of the coronavirus pandemic, which has caused the shutdown of some 70 000 cinemas in China, nearly 2 500 in the US and over 9 000 in the EU, the joy sparked by the success of the film industry in 2019 has quickly given way to anxiety. Shootings, premieres, spring festivals and entertainment events have faced near-total cancellation or postponement due to the pandemic, thus inflicting an estimated loss of US$5 billion on the global box office; this amount could skyrocket to between US$15 billion and US$17 billion, if cinemas do not reopen by the end of May 2020. The EU film sector is essentially made up of small companies employing creative and technical freelancers, which makes it particularly vulnerable to the pandemic. The domino effect of the lockdown has triggered the immediate freeze of hundreds of projects in the shooting phase, disrupted cash flows and pushed production companies to the brink of bankruptcy. To limit and/or mitigate the economic damage caused by coronavirus, governments and national film and audiovisual funds across the EU have been quick in setting up both general blanket measures (such as solidarity funds and short-term unemployment schemes) and/or specific industry-related funds and grants (helping arthouse cinema and providing financial relief to producers and distributors). For its part, the EU has acted promptly to limit the spread of the virus and help EU countries to withstand its social and economic impact. In addition to the Coronavirus Response Investment Initiative (CRII) and the CRII+, both approved by the European Parliament and the Council in record time, the Commission has set up a Temporary Framework allowing EU countries to derogate from State aid rules, and proposed a European instrument for temporary support (SURE) to help protect jobs and workers affected by the coronavirus pandemic.

BUYING THE FILM RIGHTS TO AN EXISTING WORK Under the Copyright Act 1968 (Cth), the author of a literary or dramatic work (such as a book, play or screenplay) has the right to control reproduction, adaptation and publication of that work.

  • How to Acquire Book Rights
    How to Acquire Book Rights Research who controls the film rights to the book. A. Publisher: At the beginning of all books is the information on the publisher. Contact the publishing house and ask for the contact information for the Rights and Acquisitions Department. When you write or fax the publisher to inquire about the film rights, be sure to include a legitimate proposal for seeking the rights, your contact information, as well as your qualifications to write the adaptation. B. Author’s agent or author: Most authors have a website, and if you’re lucky, there will be personal contact information on it. If you can find a way to connect directly with the author, s/he might be agreeable to selling you the rights more easily. Most authors would love the chance to see their book on screen. If the author is based in the United States, you might also be able to find them via The Writers Guild of America. What if the rights are not available? If the film rights are not available, you absolutely should not do any work on adapting the book for the screen. Simply put, the rights don’t belong to you, and you’ll open up a legal can of worms by infringing upon those rights. When do book rights become public domain? Public domain means the author no longer owns the film rights to the book and anyone can adapt the book into film (Jane Austin, Sherlock Holmes, etc). Books become public domain when the author's copyright on the material expires.
