Re: RECENT AUDIO VISUAL ACQUISITIONS
Stress Management 16mm 17 mins.

"Stress Management" delivers valuable and inspiring
insights in a format that viewers can easily comprehend.
The film goes beyond the usual clinical cliches, delivering
to its audience a number of systems that allow stress to be
understood in its true state - as a subjective thing, unique
to each individual.

Visual Literacy Series: three short films designed for
children from kindergarten to grade 6 to aid in better under-
standing audio-visual techniques.

Body Talking 6 mins.

Illustrates the basic element of non-verbal
communications using facial expressions, gestures
and posture. It shows how you can "not" say a
word and still be heard.

A Sense of Touch 6 mins.

This film invites young children to use their
powers of observation in a musical exploration of
the sense of touch. From bath water to bubble gum,
from bananas to beards, the film covers a vast
spectrum of experiences in touching.

Sequence and Story 5 mins.

This film demonstrates that a story is a series
of events that may be affected by the order in which
they are presented.

The Fitness Formula 16 mm 27 mins.

It is easy to appreciate George Sheehan's many qualities
when you look at his life: an authority on sports medicine,
author of several books, along with being a columnist, it
is understandable that Sports Illustrated would name Sheehan
as being "the most important philosopher in sport". At the
heart of his words is his philosophy of getting involved with
life.
