About this episode
In the latest emergency broadcast, I caught up with Kris Tapley, host of the 50MPH podcast, about the launch of MICHAEL MANN ARCHIVES , a "state-of-the-art, interactive website offering unique access into the all-encompassing directing process of one of cinema's most influential filmmakers." MICHAEL MANN ARCHIVES LAUNCHES WITH FERRARI A state-of-the-art, interactive website offering unique access into the all-encompassing directing process of one of cinema's most influential filmmakers. Michael Mann Archives – Ferrari offers unprecedented, intimate access into the creative process of one of cinema’s most influential directors. Mann’s cinema is often celebrated for its innovation and the depth of its characters. For the user who purchases access, the site immerses interactively into the breadth, scale, and detail of directing Ferrari and does so from inside the director’s perspective …how actors become their characters; how to make a place and time come to life; architecting the collision of emotionally powerful vectors in the storytelling. The site is large. It includes - 20 mini documentary videos, Mann and his actors’ work from training and rehearsals through shooting, camera and art department strategies to impact drama, the design and engineering of replica race cars, camera systems, the tragic crash at Guidizzolo…and much more. At the same time, there are Mann’s annotated script pages, notes to himself on intent, his photo storyboards and captured audio – all of which provide an additional dimension.
