MY FILMS
When I entered college, I had never filmed before. Over the course of four years, I pushed myself out of my comfort zone and put my all into learning a new skill. The following films reflect my process of practicing and bettering myself. While I'm not going into film professionally, these creative projects have helped me learn how to view, create, and analyze the visual--a skill that will follow me well into my design career. I hope you enjoy!
