I was assigned the role of camera assistant, and again, we were given the Bolex 16mm camera to shoot, and everyone was to edit their own cut using a digital transfer. What is included is my edit of the film.

Our requirements included obtaining a specific set of shots, while telling a complete story.

For this project, I was tapped as the Director of Photography, and was responsible for framing the shots, determining the appropriate level of exposure, and operating the Bolex 16mm camera. I also produced all the graphics used. Each member of our team was also required to create their own edited cut from a digital transfer of the film. For my cut I also composed my own music. What is shown here is my edited version.

Note: I chose to leave the black space on either side of the frame in my edited cut, as an artistic decision.
