The Millennials Project

The Millennials Project explores the lifestyles of several individuals who learn to balance their work and social lives all while trying to pursue their passions amidst political, social, and economic scrutiny. Millennials, whose ages range from 18-34 years-old, are known for their technological savviness, go-getter mentality, entrepreneurship, and adventurous spirit. But just like any generation of people, we are constantly under pressure from our peers and the generations before us. Through talking to these individuals about their paths in pursuing their various goals I want viewers to understand what it is to be a millennial living in NYC.
