Back to the session: video

  "Back to the meeting" has always been a project I am at the Bretovard Academy. When I was still a sophomore, several faculty members asked me if I wanted to make Banju movies related to the school. My degree at Brevard College is the Wilderness Leadership and Experience Education (WLEE) and Journalism. I can combine them to create this movie.

  Banff’s "Back to the Conference" screening
My goal is to capture the student communities of the Brevad College and its unique relationships and neighboring wilderness. The project enables me to work with students in the outing club of the college and countless hours, DuPont and students in the woods in western regions of North Carolina.

  This place is very special for many people and continue to be the home of adventure soul. I thank a university that supports students to establish contact with the natural world. This film is screened in Banff and is very popular.
