Preliminary Call for Help With Documentary

195536760_7ede341db0Zheyan Ni ’15 is looking for help with her documentary idea. If you’d like some experience working in film, this could be perfect:

This is a preliminary idea. I want to make a short documentary to reflect the living condition of Chinese immigrants (stowaways) in New York City. By interviewing them about their daily life, change of values and the challenges they dealt with, I hope to be able to tell a story and address an issue. All ideas, technical supports and suggestions are welcome. If you are interested in my proposal, please email me at zni(at)wesleyan. Thank you!
