Edit 11/13/2024: Recently, someone asked us if the Revival documentary was still being worked on and sadly, it appears as though the project has been abandoned. Dean and James’s Kickstarter project was cancelled, they have not updated anything in Instagram since 2022, and none of us have heard any updates. We’ll keep this show up in case anyone is interested, but unless we hear otherwise, it is safe to say this documentary is not going to happen.
This week, we have a very special episode of the Camerosity Podcast. Anthony, Paul, Theo, and myself sit down with director Dean Ginsburg and producer James Carr of the documentary film, REVIVAL: The Film to Bring Back Film.
Dean and James are both passionate about all things film, the history, shooting, developing, printing, the gear, and after witnessing a similar level of enthusiasm from many others, young and old, all over the world, they started out on a quest to make a documentary film that explores what exactly it is about film photography that has captivated so many people.
Listen in as the filmmakers share their motivation and rationale behind why making this documentary is important to them, and also soliciting stories and motivations from us the Camerosity crew. Also joining the discussion were Hong Lee and Matt Jones who got to share their personal stories and ask the filmmakers their questions.
This special 1 hour chat is a fascinating glimpse into the behind the scenes of a crowdfunded film project. Also, check out their Kickstarter page where depending on how much you’re willing to back, you might be able to earn an appearance in the film!
Every week, the topics we discuss on the Camerosity Podcast are decided entirely upon you, so if you’d like to join us, be sure to look out for our next show announcement for Episode 20, which we will record at our normal time of 7pm CST (UTC -6), 8pm EST (UTC -5) on Monday, February 21st.
