Dramatization of Place

For my Documentary Film Production class, we had this assignment. We were tasked to make a “character study” of a place of our choice. We were told to show its mood, nature, characters, and/or dramatic tensions entirely through imagery and natural sound. I chose a coffee shop I am constantly at that I love. To me, it is a very safe space with great people, which is exactly what I wanted to showcase with the video. I wanted to convey that feeling while also showing the really amazing human connection aspect of the environment.
