The Grateful Challenge (2014)
5-minute Film
in collaboration with director, Allison Beda
commissioned by INTERSECTIONS*
I met director Allison Beda a week into September. We had been paired together to create a new, collaborative film which would be premiered on October 16th. It didn't take much conversation for us to settle on exploring the idea of Gratitude. We wrote a quick script, gathered some amazing crew, and interviewed some friends.
For this work, we considered my role to be sound director. Instead of composing background for a stand-and-shoot documentary, I used the interviews as source materials for soundscapes of gratitude.
Here are the film's tagline and synopsis:
Brad is brewing tea and gratitude, but is thirty days long enough to steep?
As part of the #30DayGratitude Challenge, Brad is taking the time ot be #grateful each day. With a camera crew as a not-so-subtle reminder, it begs the question "Am I grateful?"
I'll post the film here when it's released online, but in the meantime, click here to see full details and specs from the film.
