Funds Needed to Properly Store Media Assets, Recordings
Results from our recent archive survey demonstrate an urgent need for both funding and preservation education in order to prevent further damage to older Native media and to keep it safe. Response to a joint survey with ATALM indicates that less than one-third of the 189 Tribes, filmmakers and other collection holders who responded are storing their media assets/audio-visual recordings in a climate-controlled area. More than 70 percent are storing their assets and recordings in an office or general collection storage area. Some of these areas include basements or non-humidity-controlled areas.
Vote for The Medicine Game: Four Brothers, One Dream
The 2016 PBS Online Film Festival, July 11-29, is a competition among 25 short films from public broadcasting outlets all over the country, and this year's slate includes a significant Native presence. The winner will be determined by online voting. This year's competition features one of the sequel films from
The Medicine Game: Four Brothers, One Dream. The four-part short film series is a sequel to the original feature length film released in 2014, which focused on older brothers Jeremy and Hiana. This series explores the lives of Miles and Lyle, their connection and assent to the top of the lacrosse world.
