The Double Feature

Omg!! Thank you SO so much to those who came out to my double feature premiere tonight! These films are so incredibly close to my heart, and my head is still reeling from getting to share them :) Thank you to the cast(s) for all your hard work (you make my job easy hehe)!!

That being said - my brand new documentary Why-omissing, and narrative short, Convergence, are up on my YouTube channel now, as well as linked below!!

Let’s talk about the films:

Convergence - I wrote this script for a film class my sophomore year. I based it on my minor, Sociology! I’ve always found it super fascinating how people in society all affect one another, in sort of a chain reaction, whether we know it or not. So, with the help of my lovely friends at school, I wanted to emulate that concept with a story about fictional college students! I aimed for the beginning of the film to be chaotic, and the end, towards the resolution, to be more mellow. So I hope you enjoy, I know we had the best time filming it!

Why-omissing - I’ve always wanted to make a documentary, however, I never knew what I wanted to focus on. While I was home a couple summers ago, it occurred to me that there was something special about the place I grew up in. I couldn’t quite put it into words the sentiment this place held for me, so I thought I would put it into visuals! This resulted in me asking my loved ones the simple question, “Why?” Why live here? What’s so special about our town? Why do you care so much about it?

And it makes me want to cry thinking about how this little town means so much to so many!

Overall, I’m beyond the MOON getting to share these projects with you! It’s a little piece of my brain I can share, and I’m forever grateful I have a digital diary of sorts that I can look back on with fond memories :)
