Elliott is a snapshot of urban parenting at the COVID-19 pandemic's midpoint: a changed world seen through the eyes of a toddler who knows no different, while his parents try to keep life together in the confines of their small Boston apartment. Shot over a few days with very basic equipment, this short film was a chance to tell a story that’s intimate, direct, and likely to resonate with anyone challenged with raising a child during COVID’s peak.

This was my first solo project after many years of editing docs professionally. Elliott grew out of the Documentary Film Criticism and Theory class at the University of Maine, which centers around the Camden International Film Festival, and helped complete my Bachelor of Arts in New Media following a sixteen year absence.
