Jun’s Yellow Coat: a mini doc

We were assigned to film a documentary that was roughly one minute in length. I know it seems short, but you’d be surprised at how much you can fit in that time. The goal of the project was to create a story using the interviews we did. My doc is all about my friend, Jun Li and a very bright yellow coat she owns. If you go to Carleton, you know who I’m talking about.

Word Art: a photo essay

The assignment for this was to create a narrative photo essay. After seeing the film, Word Play, I felt inspired by the people who dedicated themselves to playing competitive Scrabble.

The screen and the dew created an interesting effect and I decided to focus my project on the view through my window. Take a look: Where I Live
