Film Formats and Licensing Options
At the Media Education Foundation, we offer a variety of formats and licensing options to meet the needs of educators, institutions, and organizations. Whether you’re looking for streaming access, physical copies, or licensing for a public screening, we have flexible solutions to fit your needs.
1. Streaming Platform Subscriptions
We provide streaming access to our entire film collection through our own platform, giving institutions seamless access to our films. You can subscribe to either our full library or specific collections. View a list of titles in each collection, and request a quote! If your institution prefers Kanopy, many of our titles are also available there.
2. Single Title Streaming Licenses
For those who only need access to individual films, we offer single-title streaming licenses. You can rent a film for short-term use or purchase long-term access depending on your institution’s requirements. We offer 7-day, 1-year, and 3-year subscription terms.
3. DVD Format
We also offer physical DVDs for institutions or individuals who prefer hard copies. This option is ideal for classrooms or events where internet access may be unreliable or unavailable.
4. Digital Site Licenses (DSL)
Our Digital Site Licenses (DSL) allow institutions to purchase a digital copy of a film for perpetual access. With a DSL, you can host the film on your institution’s own secure server.
5. Public Screening Licenses
If you’re planning to host a public screening, we offer several options for screening licenses. Whether it’s an educational event, conference, or community gathering, our licenses are designed to fit the size and type of your event. Please note that public screenings may require a different license than classroom or personal use. Let us know if you’d like to host a screening, and we’ll get back to you with pricing & details!
