Cinemad podcast #9: Vanessa Renwick

podcast #9: Vanessa Renwick:



Filmmaker Vanessa Renwick takes the term "do-it-yourself" seriously. She has made films since the early 1980s, and we mean made them: writing, filming, editing, and even processing the film by hand. 30 years and films and videos later, she has created portraits of people, life and landscapes, with great images and strong ideas, both fun and insightful. We talk about her movies and longtime hometown of Portland, but more about hitchhiking and wolves.

all podcasts are available here for streaming or download, and on iTunes for free under Cinemad.
Bookended by "I Was A Teenage Werewolf" by The Cramps

DVD of her work coming soon:
