A/V Geeks

A DVD for a test-obsessed nation including films meant for specific niche groups – TV engineers. Films include: You Bet Your Life, The Handtrap Test, SMPTE Color Tv Test Film #2, Your Study Skills – Taking Tests, Giving The Rorschach Test – Klopfer Method, the classic, Comparative Tests on a Human and a Chimpanzee Infant of Approximately the Same Age


In order to keep up their status as an edu-info- tain-gency, the A/V Geeks present an evening of films that show you how to do things. For example, How To Build an Igloo teaches us step-by-step how to build a shelter in the ice. With How to Get Cooperation we learn the fine art of twisting classmates’ arms to cooperate. And The Shoplifter accidentally teaches you some nifty shoplifting tricks (circa 1964).

Training films made for one of the most stressful and dangerous jobs in a democracy – being a police officer. Films include: Disturbance Calls, Failure to Protect, Shotgun – Second Weapon and more!

Requested by popular demand! The A/V Geeks present films made during the late 1970s push for the nation to adopt the metric system of measurement. Gee, it seem so easy to learn compared to the English system. I wonder why it was dropped in the 1980s? Films include – Metric America, the rarely seen Schoolhouse Rock metric system shorts and much more! Bring some friends! Door prizes!
