Lockdown experiences - how has it changed you?
On a local facebook group a cinematographer has asked for submissions from around the world to make a short story on the lockdown and how it has affected people. This can include photos and videos [it doesn't matter if they are 'only' cellphone videos, it's the content that's important] and interviews. If anyone would like to contribute we have till July 25 to submit. Please contact me if you would like to send some photos or video clips or take part in an interview of how the lockdown has changed you, even a simple voice recording can be added on top of some photos. let's send something from New Zealand even though we think we're 'over it' :)
