How I Got Over: Documenting Personal and Collective Transformation with Kalimah Abioto
Meets Monday and Weds 5-6:30pm | May 10, 12, 17, 19, 24, 26
How have you experienced change and transformation over the last year? In this workshop, we will explore ourselves thorough film, writing prompts, and other media forms that speak to personal and public change, transformation, and revolution. We will deep dive into our cultural artifacts in the form of documentary film, experimental video shorts, series, and other forms of moving image storytelling, and discuss how these forms of expression articulate change in creative ways. By the end of the class, each student will use their unique voice to create a short experimental video or mixed media project that addresses this transformation.
Kalimah Abioto is a multi-dimensional artist and creator with a background in video documentation, editing, and producing. Being an empathetic creator who likes to try new things has allowed her to embody many different roles including filmmaker, poet, musician, and creative mentor. Kalimah values creativity, family, integrity, social work, passion, determination, individuality, and communal unity among other things.
