01 / The practice behind the picture

One vision.
Many moving parts.

I Accommodate Me is my undergraduate thesis film, written, directed, and produced through a process of revision, collaboration, and adaptation.

I began writing the script in 2022, filmed in New York City in early 2023, and completed editing in 2024. This archive follows the writing, casting, scene planning, production, and editing behind the finished film.
