Entertainment Use Rights:

The Entertainment Use license allows broader use rights outside the ordinary classroom context:

  • The films can be shown anywhere on campus. (ACF: Only indoor movie events are covered.)
  • The film can be shown by someone other than an instructor, e.g. a student club, a staff training event.
  • The audience can include students and staff, with some members of the public present (however, see the limitation below).

Please note the following limitations on Entertainment Use:

  • The event must be free to attend -- no cost or cover charge. Showing films at charity fund-raisers is allowed, but only when the cost is purely by donation
  • The license covers only films that have been released for rental and home purchase; films still in theatrical release are not covered
  • The primary audience of the event must be members of the institution. Event advertising must be limited to media targeted at the university/college and its students and staff. In the case of print advertising, the advertisements may only appear in campus media (e.g. a student newspaper) and not in general community newspapers.

Preamble: 

Pricing is now available for the renewal for the Feature Film Public Performance Rights (PPR) licenses from Criterion and Audio-Cine Films (ACF).

Apologies for the late posting; the vendors were late in providing pricing.

The PPR licences include the following options:

  • For all institutions, Entertainment PPR [7] to cover the showing of films on campus outside the classroom, e.g. a student club's movie night; and
  • For for-profit institutions only, Educational PPR [8] to cover the showing of films in the classroom.

The Criterion PPR licences are separate from the Criterion on Demand streaming service. Participating in the one offering does not depend in any way on the other.
