TFA now has access to Swank Digital Campus, provided by Swank Motion Pictures, Inc.®. This resource is created for Faculty to enhance curriculum by providing students with access to course-related films. Through Digital Campus, students can conveniently view assigned films - freeing up valuable class time and eliminating the time constraints of sharing copies.
Check the Digital Campus catalog to see what titles they carry.
To request a title check the Digital campus Catalog to see if the item is available. Using the Advanced Search, films can be searched by title, actor, director and genre. If you find the title you want you can fill out the form on the left to have it ordered and added to your reserve list. If you have any questions contact Robert Metrick.
Once a film is licensed by TFA through Digital Campus it becomes available to any faculty member who wishes to use it, both for classroom screening and on your Blackboard couse page. There are no restrictions on the number of courses a title is available. Please contact Robert Metrick if you wish to use any of the titles listed below.
