3 Films about Angie...

This was a group project from our Photo 237 Intro to Documentary DV Production course. Three students, Angie Azar, Jeff Ferguson, and Melissa Lindsey worked together to film a "typical day in the life of a photo student" and then each edited their own version of the footage. The results show that there are unique ways to see the same event, even if it's captured with a single camera!
