ABOUT ME, WITHOUT ME
Synopsis
I created this one minute experimental film for my application into the Australian Film, Television and Radio School. The brief: “Using sound and images, submit a one minute video essay about yourself, but in which you do not appear. We are looking for a sense of who you are as a creative cinematic storyteller and what you want to say to an audience.”
I decided to make a video scrapbook documenting the highs and lows of my twenties. I wanted the film to evoke a nostalgic celebration for the subtle joys in life, and to remind the viewer to remain hopeful and positive, even when faced with pain and adversity. It’s one of my favourite things I have ever made.
