“For Friends and Family Only” is an exercise in reflection on what I truly love the most; nature, my friends, and my family. It acts as an extension on who I am as a person, and where my heart truly lies.

This film is meant to capture a sense of warmth, and make you feel safe and like you can be totally vulnerable. After meeting these wonderful people and connecting with myself, I've been on a journey of self-discovery and healing.

The film was shot entirely with a Sony camcorder I rented on campus. I composited everything in After Effects and edited it all in Premiere Pro. Every shot composited to look like Super 8 film captures a moment in time through my eyes, whilst the shots directly from the camera are meant to feel "larger than life."

All of the sounds were recorded by me, and the music is a combination of an orignal composition by my brother, and a song called "Isn't That Enough" by Shawn Mendes. I made it sound distorted whenever it was playing over "Super 8" footage.

“Chasing a Feeling” is a short film about appreciating the little things in life, no matter how many people try to dictate how we should be living.

I am of the belief that art, music, the beauty of the world around us, and the love we share for our friends and family are the things we stay alive for. These are all things filled with passion, and as humans we're incredibly passionate creatures. So, chase that feeling in your heart with no regrets.

The film was shot entirely with a Sony camcorder I rented on campus. I composited everything in After Effects and edited it all in Premiere Pro. Every shot composited is supposed to look like it was shot on film, giving a sense of sentimental value and resembling a moment captured that feels like a memory.

The sound effects were taken from sounds I recorded whilst in Steamboat Springs, and the music is a mixture of my brother's guitar playing, and "So Long For Now" from Slipstream Archive.
