Sponsored Film
Sponsored film, or ephemeral film, as defined by film archivist Rick Prelinger, is a film made by a particular sponsor for a specific purpose other than as a work of art: the films were designed to serve a specific pragmatic purpose for a limited time. Many of the films are also orphan works since they lack copyright owners or active custodians to guarantee their long-term preservation. Types of sponsored film The genre is composed of advertising films, educational films, industrial videos, training films, social guidance films, and government-produced films. While some may borrow themes from well-known film genres such as western film, musicals, and comedies, what defines them is a sponsored rhetoric to achieve the sponsor's goals, rather than those of the creative artist. Sponsored films in 16mm were loaned at no cost, except sometimes postage, to clubs, schools, and other groups. America's largest companies - AT&T, DuPont, Ford, General Electric, General Motors, Republic Stee ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Bearcats!
''Bearcats!'' is an American Western television series broadcast on the CBS television network during the fall 1971 television season.

(which previously produced many series including ''The Addams Family'', ''Mister Ed'', ''The Beverly Hillbillies'', ''Green Acres'', and ''Petticoat Junction''). It was co-produced by Rodlor, Rod Taylor's production firm.

Although automobiles were common in the United States in 1914, a $2,000 sports car would have been very rare in the more remote areas of the Western United States. How the heroes paid for this expensive ride was rather unusual, as well. They undertook work which could be considered "private security" for a prosperous ...
