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,

2. To enrich public discussion around issues of individual growth and social transformation.

We are currently working on a number of projects including:

Meinrad Craighead: Praying with Images -- an hour-long introduction to the lifelong pilgrimage of New Mexico artist Meinrad Craighead and her mystical encounters with the Divine Feminine. As she explains the dreams and shamanic journeys that have often been the inspiration for her art, viewers will be introduced to images of the Divine Mother that have appeared around the globe throughout human history.

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.
