What to Preserve
Filmmaker Perspective: Debra Granik
Andrea Kalas sits down with director Debra Granik and cinematographer Michael McDonough to discuss their work on 2003's Down to the Bone, 2009's Winter's Bone, and 2018's Leave No Trace. The duo's twenty-year collaboration makes for a compelling case study in the ongoing evolution of digital filmmaking, how that evolution has affected their creative options and choices along the way, and the kinds of notes and annotations filmmakers have to offer archivists in preserving those nuances across time.
