Heritage Foundation ALIPH Targets Ukraine, Syria and Indonesia in New Film Rescue Program

Comments

1. Danesantos: appalling how something this important is tied to heritage rather than just preserving actual art
2. Liam: I don't see the connection between this film heritage thing and preserving individual films. Are they planning to get involved with specific film preservation projects or just raising awareness?
3. Ravibrar: love seeing orgs use film to preserve cultural heritage, but what's the plan for digitizing these films?
4. Miawex: but what about the specifics on how they plan to 'rescue' these films? is it restoration, digitization, or something else entirely?
5. Lucasp: I'm not sure what's more alarming - the 80% of film heritage at risk or that they're using cooking videos as a visual to illustrate their point
6. Maya: can we talk about the actual footage they're using as examples? that tattoo-making one looks like some shaky cam phone work to me
7. Lucas: assuming aliph's approach is what saves the rest 80%, how will they handle all the abandoned film archives?
8. Diego: still trying to wrap my head around prioritizing film preservation over the work being created today. what's the plan for keeping people employed at production studios while we 'save' these
9. Norat: interesting approach to film preservation but it's worth noting most people have seen those videos already
10. Novaellisxo: this sounds like exactly the kind of thing aliph needs to be doing, i'm glad they're starting somewhere
11. Noahboonexo: this is just a fancy way of admitting they've been asleep at the wheel for decades. 20% of film heritage safeguarded? that's staggering negligence
