Documentary Work Georgann Eubanks and Donna Campbell are the principals of the documentary production firm, Minnow Media. We choose projects based on the following guidelines: 1. To preserve the voices
and stories of individuals, communities, sites, and events
that are on the verge of
of dramatic change or silence; and, The Why Nots -- a half-hour documentary about a North Carolina slow pitch softball team's quest to win the National Senior Games in 2008. Among the Why Nots' sixteen players are several grandmothers, two military veterans, a farmer, a software designer, a longtime parks and recreation coordinator and referee, a tire saleswoman, a former homebuilder who now works at Lowe's, and a tax preparer. None have drifted too far from their roots in Burlington, North Carolina. More than one is a cancer survivor. Many are caring for aging parents or ailing partners. The players, once members of a semi-pro team in the 1970s, range in age from 55 to 77. Getting Through: Stories of HIV/Hepatitis C Co-infection -- a short educational video for patients and health care providers, featuring stories from a number of persons who are living successfully with both the HIV and Hepatitis C viruses and those who have sought treatment and conquered the Hep C virus.
