Self (archive footage)
Ópera prima de Don Hahn, uno de los productores más importantes de Disney. Documental que analiza el periodo que va de 1984 a 1994, en el que se filmaron obras como “¿Quién engañó a Robert Rabbit“, “La Sirenita“, “Aladdín“, “Pesadilla antes de Navidad" o "El rey león". Cuenta con testimonios de grandes personalidades de los estudios Walt Disney como el director Tim Burton, el productor John Lasseter, el desaparecido Roy Edward Disney, que fue quien renovó la producción animada y lideró el imperio. Queda patente que la producción animada no es ajena a las luchas por el poder entre los productores ejecutivos. (FILMAFFINITY)
Night of 100 Stars
Self
The most glittering, expensive, and exhausting videotaping session in television history took place Friday February 19, 1982 at New York's Radio City Music Hall. The event, for which ticket-buyers payed up to $1,000 a seat (tax-deductible as a contribution to the Actors' Fund) was billed as "The Night of 100 Stars" but, actually, around 230 stars took part. And most of the audience of 5,800 had no idea in advance that they were paying to see a TV taping, complete with long waits for set and costume changes, tape rewinding, and the like. Executive producer Alexander Cohen estimated that the 5,800 Radio City Music Hall seats sold out at prices ranging from $25 to $1,000. The show itself cost about $4 million to produce and was expected to yield around $2 million for the new addition to the Actors Fund retirement home in Englewood, N. J. ABC is reputed to have paid more than $5 million for the television rights.

Videotape Study No. 3
Self (archive footage)
Part of a collection of restored early works by Nam June Paik and Jud Yalkut, this piece is historically significant as well as remarkably prescient. Video Tape Study No.3 is a direct media intervention, in which Paik distorts and manipulates footage from news conferences by U.S. President Lyndon Johnson and New York Mayor Lindsey.
