Northeast Historic Film is a nonprofit organization founded in 1986 to preserve and share historic films from Maine and the broader New England region. Based in Bucksport, Maine, their extensive collection includes home movies, local TV news, documentary films, and more. In this episode of the Photo Detective podcast, co-founders David Weiss and Jane Donnell discuss their mission to save endangered films and make them accessible through digitization and online platforms.
- They provide film preservation services like digitization for individuals and institutions. They have climate-controlled vaults for long-term storage of film.
- Home movies are a core part of their collection. These give insights into everyday life, local history, family dynamics, fashion, and architecture.
- Their theater shows archival clips before contemporary films. They also share films on their website, YouTube, etc.
- Filmmakers and documentarians contact them looking for footage to license.
- They constantly get new donations as historic films surface from basements, attics, etc. Digitization is a key focus to make the films more accessible.
