03 · Behind The Camera

Inside the shop.

As part of the production team, I participated in the development of the documentary and conducted the interview with David.

The project involved planning, filming, interviewing, and shaping a narrative that balanced personal storytelling with documentary observation.

04 · What I Learned

Listening as a craft.

This project strengthened my interviewing, storytelling, and documentary production skills.

More importantly, it reinforced the value of listening carefully, building trust with subjects, and finding meaningful stories in everyday people and professions.
