Stumbling Towards Digital: BlogNosh 04/28/08

The latest issue of Reverse Shot is online. “For this issue, we attempted a unique approach by asking our writers to select a filmmaker who’s traditionally worked in film and has moved to digital video, as a brief sidestep or a career-changing ideological statement,” explain editors Michael Koresky and Jeff Reichardt. “Then we asked them to contrast and compare this digital foray with their earlier cinematic style (unfortunately no one picked up the offered gauntlet of The Godfather vs. Youth Without Youth). With filmmakers as varied as Robert Zemeckis and the Kuchar brothers occupying the same space, we feel we’ve covered a lot of ground.”
