Sight & Sound

These five short films were created in 2013 as a student attending NYU Tisch School of the Arts. The course, titled Sight and Sound Filmmaking, challenges directors to create (mostly) silent films that tell stories through the subtext of filmmaking techniques such as screen direction, camera movement, blocking, lighting and performance. The films are made with minimal crew and equipment, within a few hours, and no budget is allotted to the students.

1. "Bridges": Telling a simple two-character story effectively through shot selection

2. "Bar Fight": Telling a simple three-character story using various angles and editing techniques

3. "Reverberation": Telling a story using various lighting techniques

4. "Time's Up": Telling a story with the use of a musical score (fun fact- this was the first film scored by brother Josh B. Wood!)

5. "Submission": Final project, putting all of the techniques together
