Assorted Works (2014-2019)

 

In 2014, I made my first video work ever while studying abroad in Italy. The early videos I made were an exercise in learning how to edit and use a camera before starting film school. After discovering artfully-made test footage on Vimeo, I started going out with a camera whenever I got bored or the weather was interesting. These videos serve as a record of my visual journey throughout the years; the lessons I learned making them still touch the documentary work I make today.
