Hilliard Lamps
Producer
We spent time with lamp manufacturer Hilliard Lamps in the cozy town of Arcata California. We set out to document the story behind the 40 year anniversary of this one of a kind shop. What we found behind the lamps was a family business, a small group of dedicated artisans, and a genuine love story.
DP World Caucedo
Assistant Director
As assistant director I worked with the director to develop an organic story line that would narrate what goes on behind this mega port. We looked closely in pre-production at the details that could tell the story by focussing in on those brief beautiful moments, and the ports most important asset: its people. Our production was tightly organized to take advantage of natural light and impromptu moments.
People's Theatre
Director
In the summer of 2014, Mino Lora, Co-Executive and Program Director of People's Theatre Project, traveled to Dominican Republic to facilitate a one week Theatre of The Oppressed workshop with at-risk youth from San José De Los Llanos. Over the course of three all-day rehearsals the participants created original plays, based on their real life experiences, that were presented in an interactive "forum theatre" format at a theatre at Bellas Artes in Santo Domingo as part of the International Theatre Festival. People's Theatre Project is a theatre and social justice group based in Washington Heights, NY. PTP.nyc
