Fred Camper, Maya Deren, and the Student 7

The Student 7 spoke to me in particular because I value doing all those things but sometimes they get pushed to the back of my head and are sadly forgotten. When writing my goals for this year I'm going to try to incorporate more things that align with these guidelines to get the most out of my senior year.

Hello and welcome to my page My name is Amy and I am a senior student pursuing a bachelors degree in Film Studies at University of North Carolina at Wilmington and this is my first blog. My favorite things about this place is the beach for obvious reasons and the film studies program because the teachers are so passionate. In my free time I enjoy doing freelance photography and videography for individuals and companies. Some of my other hobbies are exercising (many different forms), creating gifs, and listening to funk music. My mom calls me a young soul because I am spontaneous and adventurous and learn my lessons accordingly. The picture below inspires me because I really would love to start underwater photography.  Amy
