Creating Opportunities
A video highlighting the careers of three employees of The Lighthouse for the Blind, Inc., Sr. Director of Strategic Recruiting Kevin Daniel, Computer and Assistive Technology Instructor Angie Christensen, Braille Literacy Instructor Andrew Stauffer, and Production Lead Samantha Porter.
The Lighthouse for the Blind, Inc. is a private, not-for-profit social enterprise with 11 locations in the United States. The mission of the Lighthouse is to create and enhance opportunities for independence and self-sufficiency of people who are blind, DeafBlind, and blind with other disabilities.
Shot on location in Seattle and Spokane, Washington on a Canon 6D, and edited with a thousand cups of coffee in January and February of 2016.
This is a documentary short film I worked on over 2014, about Seattle icon Cliff Gustafson. Shot on location in Lynwood, Thrasher’s Pub in Bothell, and the Twilight Exit in Seattle, WA, this was my first attempt at creating video. It was an absolute honor to have a chance to share Cliff’s story, and hopefully provides a brief glimpse into the life of someone who helped define Seattle’s cultural landscape for so many years.
