Our family has donated a great deal of material to the archive. We selected AMPAS over other options because of the dedication, professionalism and knowledgeof the staff and the committment to the preservation and accessibility of the collection for students and filmmakers for years to come. Because of my enthusiasm for the Academy, I successfully encouraged other film families to choose AMPAS for their collections as well. I am very concerned about what this recent action of the Board means to the ongoing commitment of AMPAS towards the future safety and preservation of the collection. Would academic institutions, like USC for example, have been a better choice?
Emily didukung: To the AMPAS Board of Governors: Rehire the the Film Archive and Library 16Film preservation is made up of workers whose entrenchment in the community, commitment to sharing knowledge, and deep institutional history empower the preservation of our cultural heritage. And it is clear that this action from the Academy's leadership is an effort to de-value the deeply human part of this work. As a member of the field, as a patron to the Academy Museum, a friend to workers, and as a volunteer for Home Movie Day at the Museum, I am whole-heartedly frustrated and saddened by this mass firing. It not only spells a disastrous loss of knowledge within this institution but also a blow to the interconnected work we do as a film preservation community. Further, the firing of the workers who built the Home Movie department is a tremendous loss to our cultural heritage - effectively saying their labor and knowledge is not of value to this film archive, and that home movies should take a backseat in preservation. The devaluation of home movies is a huge loss to a landscape where we need empowered preservation of people-made media - led by workers who care deeply about each other and the work! I share my sadness with my colleagues and advocate for a field where the institutions that benefit from our work afford us the value we deserve.
Jackie didukung: To the AMPAS Board of Governors: Rehire the the Film Archive and Library 16The Academy.... what did you expect? A for profit organization masqueraded as a non profit. While many archivist struggle to make ends meet. What a joke. If this is the legacy of media preservation in Los Angeles then we as a society should be ashamed. The Academy cares more about it's board then the staff that sacrifice day and night. The pay range for these staff members already is bare bones, and the fact they can't hang onto there jobs means the greedy board is trying to save every last penny for themselves. Let us always be reminded The Academy would rather protect high value salaries of there washed up board then films. I'll be sure to tell everyone who wants to work for the Academy to beware of there for profit incentives.
John didukung: To the AMPAS Board of Governors: Rehire the the Film Archive and Library 16as a media historian and professor, our job is to teach and research the past in order to support the positive and reflexive growth of the film and media industries. we can't do this without archivists.
Sarah didukung: To the AMPAS Board of Governors: Rehire the the Film Archive and Library 16While the collections at the Academy Film Archive and the Margaret Herrick Library are significant, it is the people who made these places what they are today – the archivists and librarians who curate, preserve, restore, catalog, and provide access to film history. Their many years of experience, knowledge and professionalism should be recognized and appreciated.
