Nathalie Canvin and Max Hayes are film students from Middlesex University. Whilst they both have a keen interest in sound, the category of Desktop Documentary has influenced them to create a creative and subjective viewing experience.
Over the second lockdown, in the aftermath of the government's "Fatima's Job" campaign, we decided to talk to emerging singers as they struggle to stay afloat. We really wanted to make a completely Covid safe documentary that captured the issues on an informed yet open outlook.
