Documentary Filmmaking
I was particularly drawn to Champlain’s small size. It’s perfect because you get to know the people you’re going to class with, and you become close with your professors and mentors. Those relationships allow you to learn as much as possible from the most inspiring people.
My favorite class was my first documentary class because that’s where I found out about the type of work I want to pursue. I also got to work on my own for the first time, which was challenging but rewarding. My project ended up receiving an honorable mention at the Northeast Student Emmys. It made me realize the impact I can have on people by telling their stories to the world.
I’m involved in the Women in Film Club and the annual service trip to Uganda. Women in Film is a great space that inspires women and nonbinary students in a male-dominated field of study. We inspire each other to create change and make the future more inclusive for all people in the industry.
I have also helped with the Uganda Service Trip for three years. It’s a great way for students to learn intercultural intelligence while creating meaningful change and fulfilling relationships through service learning.
Film is unique because we all work closely together, which means being incredibly vulnerable with our classmates. We're artists who pour everything into our work.
