TORONTO STAR - FILE
As most newspaper media has moved online, The Star realized that a great deal of their reporting would all but disappear from their website with each new day. Stories that track the progress (or lack there of) of a number of important issues that affect the city. Policing, Education, Long-Term Care to name a few. As such, I was tasked by the Toronto Star to create a number of different short form documentaries to act as primers for much broader stories. The roll of these mini-docs would be to drive people to their newly created “Content Hub” where the numerous stories on these various topics would all be housed, in a user friendly way.
I pulled double duty on this one acting as Director & Photographer.
