Director Statement

This was My Fourth Directed Audiovisual Storytelling, made in Feb-June 2021. It was My 4th Semester Student Fiction Film Project and My Course Final Film Project. The film had a very Tight Schedule and Tight Budget. I have learned a lot through the filmmaking process of this short.
