The nuclear weapons buildup and the protests against it were for many simply the news of the day, but for two filmmakers from the 勛圖厙 of Colorado Boulder it may turn out to be a provocative theme for a historical documentary and multimedia oral-history archive.

With the recent gift of $2 million worth of professional preservation and archiving equipment from Wyndham Hannaway, a visualeffects specialist, film studies will be adding film preservation and archiving to impressive list of offerings. Hannaways Boulder company, GWH&A, has been a leader in creating professional imaging for film and media services for more than 30 years.
