Several recent developments suggest that the predicted video learning revolution is beginning in home furnishings.
They include forthcoming publication of a remodeling videotape, preparation of a video by a manufacturer of bed linens and introduction of a mail-order video course by a distributor of educational programs.
”It has been predicted that all television homes will have a video player-recorder within five years,” said Russell Morash, executive producer of ”This Old House,” which originates on public television station WGBH in Boston.
Morash has produced three home videos based on popular public television programs, all distributed by book publishers–the ”Julia Child Way to Cook,” published by Knopf; ”The Victory Garden,” released by Crown Publishers; and the forthcoming ”This Old House,” also published by Crown.
The 60-minute video based on ”This Old House” is expected to sell for $24.95 when it appears in bookstores and other outlets this summer. Morash described the videotape as a collection of a dozen or so home projects.
