Strum

When presented with the assignment of making a wellness short film, my group and I decided to have ours centered around a ""solace"". As the lead actor in this film, I chose for my character's solace to be music, since I myself am also extremely connected to music.
"Strum" is a short film about a student who suffers from extreme isolation and depression. His school work is overwhelming him, he has no friends, and his teachers hate him. In a culmination of stress and anxiety, he throws his chrome book out of the window, and resorts to music to help calm him down.
My group and I had a great time filming this over the course of a couple days, and are all extremely happy with the way it turned out.

Creativity saves me from conforming to the blandness that this world has to offer. It allows me to stop thinking about anything else, and give everything in that moment to art.
