"I started off my year by doing four research papers, then making a documentary about food waste on a school and local level, and finished out my year with work on Collaborative, Streaming Canvas, and a senior capstone. While this certainly wasn’t how I envisioned my last year in the film department to go, I am still proud of the things I accomplished. This year I was able to take a deep-dive into topics within film that fascinated me, while allowing myself time to create a final capstone. I’m not planning to continue formally studying film or communications in college, but I hope to still devote some time to creating short films and other content in the future. I have loved my time in the Dreyfoos film department, and I’m so grateful for the opportunities it has given me <3 "
