LIVING WORDS
3:00 LIVING WORDS: Sabrina Miller (Final video project, Freshman, New Media major) Fall 2006
A tribute to the process of Journaling that I have kept up for the past 11 years since receiving my first journals as a present from my grandmother. Yet I want to take this written process and capture moments as they appear in my head when I reread them. The images move a little faster, they are segmented, they tangent and are generally colorful. The main focus will be on the thought process of observing and writing about women. Women I meet in public spaces, and then more importantly the woman that is always on my mind, Brittany.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DIE
3:30 WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DIE: Jenna Klein (Final video project, Sophomore, New Media major) Fall 2007
The assignment for this video was to choose a topic you didn’t understand and use video to try to find the answer. Students tended to reach for big and unanswerable subjects. The videos were then meant to act as a journey.
A PROMOTIONAL VIDEO made for Purchase College, 2009.
With select students on a semester long independent study, four videos were made for different departments in the division of Natural and Social Sciences, directed by me.
