Learning through the people doing the work.
Interviews and footage around the hives introduce a part of campus life that depends on patience, practical knowledge, and shared responsibility. The film follows the relationship between the people, the bees, and the work of the program.
I directed the project, served as its primary videographer, developed the interview questions, and coordinated participants. The production brought together footage from three camera contributors, with video and sound editing by Marguerite Burns.
