As I mentioned in blog #1, I am currently involved in an internship at a charity named emerge poverty free here in London. It has been an extremely interesting experience thus far, and I’d like to talk about it just a bit. First off, to be honest I was very nervous about this internship; I […]

I absolutely hate the Tate Modern Art Gallery. Absolutely hate it. I know hate is a strong word, but I’m not going to relinquish that statement and I’ll tell you why. First off is the building itself. It is absolutely repulsive–a giant square brick building with a brick tower in the center that hovers over […]

I’m currently engaged in a rivalry with a mouse–a number of them actually. I’ve actually only seen one, but Jake says there’s three.

Hola chicos! Happy autumn everyone! I know I can’t be the only one would loved the cooler stretch of weather that we had here in Stevens Point. Fall is my favorite season and I’m so happy to get back in the full swing of things. As the second week of classes come to an end […]

We recently shot new content for the site with Christine Price Clark in Arcadia park. The park is on the east side of Vancouver and has stunning views of the Pacific Ocean. I spent the day learning about filming, including shadows, cameras, and their angles, lighting, and my favorite, set disturbances. As the PA on […]

Hola chicos! I feel like my greeting should be in English now that I’m back in the USA, but I think I will keep the Spanish greeting just for fun. Anyway, hello everyone and happy summer! I have been back in the States for two months now and fall is closing in on me. I […]
