tercet

2019

A dance film in three parts, created by Ava Blakeslee-Carter, Chaunci Hannibal, and Michael Shea. Each chapter is directed by a different artist, exploring how emotional tone is affected by lighting and tonality of movement.

This was the first time I had the opportunity to work in a supportive role on a video project; it was uniquely satisfying to help bring my peers’ visions to fruition during our week-long production.

Below are excerpts from the first two chapters – both of which I filmed, and the latter of which I co-edited – and an abridged cut of the third chapter, which I directed.

Screened at VCUarts Rough Cut 2020.
