Churches and Movies
It's becoming more common. Pastors use portions of movies to
enhance sermon points. Sunday School teachers and childcare
workers play a full-length feature. Youth leaders show the
latest videos. Educators use movies to train and inspire.

What's The Big Deal?
Most of us fast-forward right through that copyright warning
at the beginning of videos and DVDs. Ever wonder what it
actually says? The Australian Copyright Act stipulates copyright works such as videos and DVDs are not authorised
for public performances, and are only licensed for home use. Special permission must be granted
for any public performance - and that includes churches. Violations
can result in substantial fines. |
The
Church Video Licence
Now, there's an affordable, convenient solution.
Christian Copyright Licensing, Inc. (CCLI) and
Motion Picture Licensing Corporation (MPLC) have
partnered to create Christian Video Licensing International
(CVLI) and the Church Video Licence, which offers
blanket copyright coverage for video titles from more
than 60 producers. |
