Availability[edit]

Where can Prodger's films be viewed? They appear to be available neither online nor via any form of commercial release. The statement in the article that one of the films is held in a public collection is sourced to a page on the Arts Council Collection website, which appears to be just a catalogue entry, with no details that I can see for how the public can access it.

@Beorhtwulf: The public can only access the work held in an institution's collection when that institution chooses to put it on show in a public exhibition, otherwise they remain behind closed doors. -Lopifalko (talk) 16:58, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the information. In that case the number of people who have seen or will ever see her award-winning films, one of which (Bridgit) was acquired by the ACC presumably with public funds, must be very small. Beorhtwulf (talk) 17:00, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
This is the way with the whole medium of film isn't it. So much locked away. I had hoped YouTube would be the saviour of it, but alas not. -Lopifalko (talk) 17:15, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
