Hi Darcy, Thanks for getting back to us! Regarding meeting in person, our school is in Needham, MA, but we’d be able to drive anywhere in the greater Boston area. For anything else, we’d be happy to talk over Zoom. Also, we found your name while we were researching independent filmmakers and film festivals, and read about your work when looking into the Massachusetts Independent Film Festival. Thank you!

[FROM AN EXTERNAL SENDER] Hello Henry! I’d love to chat with y’all about the filmmaking process. Where would we meet if we met in person? When would you like to meet? Also if you don’t mind me asking, did someone recommend me? How did you hear about me? Thank you! - Darcy On Feb 9, 2026, at 2:50 PM, Henry Tejada <htejada@olin.edu<mailto:htejada@olin.edu>> wrote: Hello Darcy, We (5 undergraduate students at Olin College) are very interested in learning about independent and amateur filmmakers! As part of our collaborative design course, we are engaging with filmmakers to both learn about the experience and practice user-oriented design. We are interested in all things related to how you make your films, from casting to production to audio. We would love to ask you questions in person and see what you do firsthand, ideally for about 60 minutes. If in person doesn’t work, calling online would still be hugely helpful.
