Maine has a rich heritage of moving images (films, videos, movies) that provide insights into its past and its self-image. These come in the form of feature films (see panel at left), specially produced materials, and “home” movies.

The specially produced materials include those created to record particular cultural events, oral histories, or other themes, often with assistance from grant giving agencies. Other material has been produced by organizations in the course of business, such as television stations and Maine State government.

“Home” movies reveal much about the culture of Maine, especially those of the early 20th century. Research videos once were available at the Folklife Center at the University of Maine, but in 2011 the Library of Congress agreed to rescue these and other materials at the Center and transfer them to its Washington, DC facilities.

The best source for moving images with Maine connections is Northeast Historic Film, a moving image archives with an emphasis on materials of Northern New England.  Its state of the art, low temperature “cube” provides an excellent mechanism for preserving this aspect of Maine’s heritage, whether in film, video tape, or digital formats.

See NHF’s YouTube Channel for great samples of Maine amateur films!

Little known is the fact that Bambi, the fawn featured in the Walt Disney 1938 classic animated movie, was modeled on an actual fawn from the Maine woods. So was Faline, Bambi’s female friend. Disney commissioned Maurice “Jake” Day of Damariscotta to photograph the Mount Katahdin area for background scenes. Day, with the help of the Maine Fisheries and Game Department, sent two white tail fawns to Hollywood to be used as models for the animation artists in Disney’s studio.*
