Hey Henry, thanks for reaching out. I would be happy to chat about filmmaking with you. In-person might be tough. I could potentially do a weekend if that would work for your group or we could do a zoom call. Let me know what works for you.

Cheers,

Message Hello Spencer!
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 come up with a design alongside you for filmmakers. 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. We hope to gain experience in human centered design.

Thank you for your time and consideration,

Henry Tejada Deras
