Sarah's got an eye for Ole Miss

Sarah Kellum is a student-worker of ours who’s interest lie in cinematography. Her first solo flight with a video-camera in hand was last week, and here is what she cut together from her first time out with the Canon XL-1. Over the summer, Sarah will be working with our Panasonic HD cameras, as well as trying her hand at 16mm film, so be on the look out for more campus shots from Sarah!

1971 Ole Miss Recruiting Film unearthed

 

I don’t know much about this film.  It is a part of our archive here at the Media and Documentary Projects Center, and was produced by our staff 38 years ago.  The title on the film canister says “1971 Recruiting Film”.  It might be missing a narration track, as there is no voice-over at all.  It is a bit disjointed, but nonetheless a nice slice-of-life look at the Ole Miss campus in the early 70’s.

This film transfer is part of our ongoing efforts to preserve the film history of the University.  I’ll try to keep posting some of these films as I get them transferred and preserved.  If you have any questions about this film, give us a call at 662-915-3475.
