PHOTO PROJECT—A Day with Vinyl
Black-and-white photo gallery documenting vinyl culture through manual DSLR settings, including ISO, aperture, and focus control. The project explores records, a turntable setup, and local vinyl shops, using aperture adjustments, exposure compensation, and varied framing to handle low light and highlight texture, detail, and mood. The final series creates a nostalgic visual style focused on contrast and composition.
AUDIO PROJECT—Back to the Beach
An audio profile was produced with a Zoom recorder, blending narration and ceremonial music in iMovie. Careful microphone placement, controlled input levels, and multi-track editing shape the clarity and emotional tone of the piece. Back to the Beach reflects on my great-grandfather’s return to Juno Beach as a WWII veteran through sound, atmosphere, pictures, and storytelling.
VIDEO PROJECT—Echoes of Lakeshore
A short profile video filmed on a DSLR camera across key Humber Lakeshore campus locations, including the cottages, long hallways, the smokestack, and the Lakeshore Psychiatric Cemetery. A mix of establishing shots, video pans and tilts, interview framing, and close-up architectural details captured at different times of day contrasts past and present. Subtle sound layering and colour correction support the project’s goal of showing how place, memory, and spiritual folklore shape the campus atmosphere.
