Video Essays

I’ve always enjoyed diving into film form and studying the techniques used by filmmakers I love. Combine that with a love of explaining things that bring me joy (as anyone that knows me will attest), it seemed like a logical choice to try my hand at doing a video essay. It was a great creative outlet for me while working on other projects. Nightcrawler is by far one of my favorite films, so it felt fitting to tackle that one first. Children of Men is such an effective film and I wanted to dive deeper into it to figure out why. I’ve always been enamored by the long takes in the film, but I loved seeing how much more there was after subsequent rewatches.
