ABOUT US
We are film students in the UW PCE Film & Video Production program, entering our third quarter where we will complete capstone projects. Our budget is low as all expenses will be out-of-pocket, but all aspects of principal photography will be conducted in a professional manner in line with industry-standard covid precautions under the guidance of our extremely experienced professors. We will rely heavily on your dedication, drive, and professionalism as we attempt to execute this ambitious and deeply personal project. The goal of the capstone project is to use it as portfolio material for job and graduate school applications, potential festival submissions, and celebration of our growth as filmmakers.
