We the Artists
Distribution:
2023
We the Artists (formerly titled People’s Creative Vision) is a reflection on how Philly artists have been overlooked during the pandemic, and how they are envisioning a new future. The short film will use voiceover and live action footage to document how the arts sector was impacted by the pandemic, as well as the City's response. Then the piece would show how this moment calls for artists to envision a new future that includes cultural equity, through a still animation.
