FILM MAKING
THREADS
I produced a documentary with Tadiwa called, THREADS, a poetic/expository type documentary attempts to inform the audience about the world of thrifting and the different aspects to that world. It tackles the issue of overconsumption, a capitalist practice, in the fashion industry and the gentrification of thrifting.
Due to the video limit, the documentary has been split into 2 parts. take note of part 1 and 2
THREADS PART 1
THREADS Part 2
It's a FEEL GOOD Movement!
I produced a Public Service Announcement based on the THREADS documentary. This PSA is based on the stigma and the representation and identity of thrifting. The aim of this PSA is to remove the stigma behind thrifting and put in emphasis on the representation and identity that thrifting brings.
Documenting is all about capturing lived experiences. I love capturing different moments of my lived experiences and creating stories.
