The curator, with the help of the acquisition committee, shall carefully consider which works should be acquired for the audiovisual collection and present progress reports to the collection committee. The Collection Criteria supports the assessment of the cultural worth of a film and its related documentation. The main aim of NFAP is to develop a comprehensive collection of Filipino works and materials representing the history, technology, and culture of the audiovisual media, from their origins to the present time. The aim is to collect works holistically, ensuring all original elements that relate to the core content are part of the acquisition. For example, for a feature film, the aim is to collect not just all components for the film …show more content…
Accessioning establishes legal custody and ownership and provides information on how the organization acquired the items. It is the first step in documenting museum collections. There are five types of NFAP accessions:
1. Gifts – outright donations from individuals or institutions, as well as bequests (posthumous gifts made in a will). The donor owns the property and transfers ownership to NFAP. The donor must warrant that they have full legal title to donate the object/s and has full power and authority to donate the object/s to NFAP.
2. Purchases – when NFAP buys museum/archive objects with the organization’s funds, it is accessioned as a purchase. The seller owns the property and transfers ownership to NFAP. The seller must warrant that they have full legal title to sell the object/s and has full power and authority to donate the object/s to NFAP.
3. Exchanges – NFAP can exchange objects for objects that fit the organization’s collection. An exchange involves both deaccession and accession. The owner of the object/s transfers ownership to NFAP. The owner must warrant that they have full legal title to the objects and has full power and authority to use the objects in an

Such machinery may employ mechanical, optical, acoustic, electro-mechanical, photochemical, electronic and digital or other technology, which becomes obsolete as manufacturers cease to support these technologies.
NFAP will therefore acquire, maintain and support all the equipment needed for preservation and conservation, develop the knowledge to operate this equipment, and maintain it in a peak operational state. NFAP’s preservation strategy is to use all available measures to protect the integrity of the collection, to maximize the life expectancy of the materials in it, restore what can should be restored and ensure the greatest possible access over the longest period of time for the largest number of items in its collections. The preservation strategies, practices and tools employed by NFAP include, but are not limited to:
1. Identifying and organizing the collection according to medium, carrier type, status and condition via a risk management strategy and supporting plans that include regular assessment, analysis and reporting of
Looking to the agreement attached, paragraph 1.10 is entitled “Sale of Receipts” and doesn’t include any limited power-of-attorney language. Lastly, the power-of-attorney is void in this circumstance because Earth First Recycling is unable to request the funds back from Paychex, when it’s already designated for the payment of
Instead, the ultimate ownership lies with the Crown (Government). As discussed above, a wide range of restrictions apply to land; these include airspace, subsurface and water rights, along with other interests and encumbrances, such as easements, restrictive covenants, mortgages, liens, etc. The rules and statutes affecting landholding are often highly detailed and complex. A notary or lawyer has a fiduciary and ethical duty towards their clients to explain their interests and rights during real estate conveyance. From a notary perspective, it is must for members to understand and meet their ethical and professional standards.
Transfer of partnership interest may not be easy: In partnership, the identity changes at any time either by partner members coming out of the partnership or by joining of new partners. But in both cases, we need to dissolve the old partnership first and to create a new partnership. Any single partner can dissolve the partnership any point of time and the process of this dissolution and final assets and obligations transfer can be quite tedious. The right to be a partner cannot be assigned or transferred to another person without the unanimous consent of the other partners; the profits and losses generated by the partnership business are taxable in the hands of the individual partners.
While I agree that prior owners, real estate brokers/agents and closing attorney's should have copies of documents and be able to pass them on to a purchaser at the time of sale, reliance on this practice is not in the best interests of the HOA that is interested in voluntary compliance by property owners. However, in reality, experience shows that owners, real estate brokers/agents and closing attorney's do not provide documents. That reality is attempted to be addressed through the DUCIOA resale certificate form and process.
Within this co-ownership, the portion of the property that belongs to any given individual is considered to be controlled by that individual fully. As a result, even though co-ownership is in place, any individual in a tenancy in common has the legal right and the ability to freely transfer their interest to another individual. Therefore, their interest can be gifted, sold, or given through an inheritance upon the current owner’s death. Since the transfer of the property is typically not restricted, the transfers would fall under the unified credit exemption, the annual exclusion, and the step-up or carry over basis, based on
In this article, Dorothy Lippert, a Native American, covers the complex dynamic between Native Americans and museum collections, more specifically the archeologists that recover and archive the so called artifacts. This complex relationship between the artifacts, with the scientific importance and ability to educate, and the cultural importance of the artifacts to native peoples is one that is forever changing. Curators are in charge of putting together exhibits, but as Mrs. Lippert examines, the archaeologists that collect and find these artifacts have a unique relationship with these items. This relationship is unique because once archaeologists have control of an item, they decide what the item will be called, how they will classify the
My cultural artifact is the historical marker placed in front of the 122 Commerce Street Montgomery Alabama that functioned as a slave warehouse in the past owned by John Murphy but is now functions as a headquarter for EJI. I was intent on doing this cultural product because I visited Montgomery, Alabama in the
The post-production soundtracks that the film set includes natural voice, local music and poetry. The film also contains footages that has different point of view from different perspective on two different lands. Such documentary is a really in depth piece of art that focus heavily on the creation of natural sounds, and relativity light on the visual senses. In the film, by separating the visual and auditory, viewers can enhance the concentration of the pictures and also escape synchronied sound environment. As a result of that, as a viewer of this film, I can truly feel such unique way of presentation of the film allow different perspective to be brought out, and give audiences a better understanding of what the “fact” is

Most importantly having the museum as such make many African-American feels closer or connective for America because of it clear message that this is truly their home. In addition, the museum is a public institution that open to everybody, it stands as an example of welcoming everyone to participate, collaborates, and learn about their history. it is very important to people because of it, of course, invest in history. For example, since its opening on September 24, 2016, the museum has "collected the more than 36,000 artifacts" (5). Not only that the museum is a collective institution but the donors whom to help build the museum come from all different backgrounds: nearly 1 40,000 individuals have become charter members of the museum (5).
Over the past century, film has served as a powerful means of communication to a global audience and has become a vital part of the contemporary culture in a world that is increasingly saturated by visual content. Due to the immediacy and the all-encompassing nature of film, the process of watching a film, is widely perceived to be a passive activity by the general masses. However, quoting Smith in his article about the study of film, “nothing could be further from the truth.” The study and understanding of film as an art form enhances the way we watch and appreciate films. It requires the audience's active participation and interaction with the film in order to fully comprehend the directors' intention behind every creative decision.
Abandoned Mobile Homes Toolkit Best Management Practices Resource Guide (TechLaw, Inc., 2011)* The Abandoned Mobile Homes Toolkit Best Management Practices Resource Guide, is a toolkit created by the EPA* that describes the best way to deconstruct a mobile home (manage practices such as planning, safety precautions, or inventory of mobile home), case studies, and results of a project that was reconstructed. The toolkit has many resourceful elements included in it such as what a person would need to deconstruct a mobile home, precautions to take while deconstructing a mobile home, a video on how to deconstruct a mobile home, the usual structure/anatomy of a mobile home, and a deconstruction and reconstruction project that was successful in creating a new structure from the materials recovered from the mobile home. This is a valuable source because it serves as a guide on how to deconstruct a mobile home safely in a manner that will preserve as much of the mobile home as possible in order to create a new house that can be used for different purposes.

William Murtagh, first keeper of the National Register of Historic Places, once said “at its best, preservation engages the past in a conversation with the present over a mutual concern for the future.” Preservation has always been a part of human nature, deeply rooted in our tradition and moral code. There is a profuse amount of ways in which society preserves, some are for selfish reasons but others help us move forward and learn from our past. As the great human race, it can be said that preservation has been our main reason for being the most successful species on the planet. Sigmond Freud was an Austrian neurologist who stated that one of the “deepest essences of human nature” is that of self-preservation.
For instance, in Marten v. Whale, Marten agreed to buy a plot of land from T in return for a car subject to the condition that his solicitor approved the title to the land. Before any transaction was done, Marten transferred the possession of his car to T who further sold it to Whale who was a bona fide buyer in good faith. It was held that Whale acquired good title as he was unaware that the seller did not have the authority to sell. In addition to sale, if the buyer makes any pledge or mortgage it should be equally effective.
