Documentary
Documentary is a genre that I have shown interest in for many years. It allows filmmakers to bring underrepresented topics to light, by experimenting with imagery, set and design. Documentaries can connect with many viewers around the world. I have an interest in mental health documentaries as I feel like they can have a positive impact on society and I aim to work on topics that inspire me in the future.
