Featured project
Slip of the Tongue is adapted from a spoken word poem by Adriel Luis and looks at perceptions of beauty, ethnicity, and body image. Using the slam poetry as a soundtrack, a strong visual style with quick and unpredictable editing, the film deconstructs the protagonist's attempted pickup line, "What's your ethnic makeup?" to a girl at the bus stop. As an artful celebration of a young woman's self-awareness, critical consciousness, and personal voice, Slip of the Tongue exemplifies the power of youth produced media in both its content and quality. more
