 "Splice
Here: A projected Odyssey" is scheduled as 7OMM Warm-Up to the
18th
Todd-AO Festival 2025 in Karlsruhe, Germany. If you like projected films
in 70mm and Cinerama,
"Splice
Here: A projected Odyssey" is for YOU!. The film is described as
a "Cineramic" roller-coaster ride through the rise, fall and rebirth of
projected film. See it on the biggest screen
"Splice
Here: A Projected Odyssey" is a love letter to film - told through the
eyes of documentarian and projectionist, Rob Murphy who begins a childhood
quest to find out what ever happened to cinema’s legendary (now long
extinct) wide screen film process,
Cinerama. Starting in Australia then expanding geographically and
thematically, Rob infiltrates a projectionists underground, meeting the
great champions of projected film and lesser known characters behind the
scenes. We discover how the digital revolution has not just changed the way
we now see movies but is becoming a very real threat to how we will remember
them |

 "The
Mission" in 70mm. Picture: Rob MurphyJoanne Donahoe Beckwith / Cinematographer / Producer: The breadth and variety of productions Joanne has worked on makes it difficult to pigeon hole her. From Feature Films, Comedy Series to Documentary each job comes with its own set of parameters and fundamentally comes down to telling stories. Her reputation as an innovative and resourceful Cinematographer is evident in her work. Joanne’s initial breakout as a cinematographer was on TV commercials and Short Films. It was during this time that she took on the role as ‘Camera and Lighting’ on the first series of the ground breaking ABC comedy Frontline. This has led to a long collaboration with Working Dog Productions. Subsequent series for Working Dog have included the award winning series A River Somewhere & UTOPIA. Joanne’s credits further include Molly: The Real Thing, It's a Date, Librarians, Very Small Business, OUTLAND. Documentary series First Contact, the acclaimed web series Little Acorns, Other Peoples Problems, The Obesity Myth, Filthy Rich & Homeless. She is excited by the current changes taking place in the industry and hopes to continue to be part of change and innovation in story telling. • Go to "Splice Here" releasing in U.K! 2024 Update • Go to "Splice Here: A Projected Odyssey" 2023 update • Go to "Splice Here: A Projected Odyssey" 2022 update • Go to "Splice Here: A Projected Odyssey" 2020 Update |
