Documentaries
Below are links to each of this year's group and individual documentaries.
GROUP DOCUMENTARIES
Group documentaries were created collaboratively by groups of 2-5 students. Though groups share the burdens of the project, they also have to navigate the often treacherous waters of differing and sometimes conflicting schedules, visions, work-styles and goals.
