While writing a letter to a friend, a boy comes to terms with the reality of his life at the moment - both good and...less good.

To Write a Letter was a final project created for my Introduction to Video course at Loyola University Chicago. It was time I’d written any dialogue to craft a narrative. The production process also presented many challenges, since it was in the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, meaning it was only me and one actor for the majority of the shoot.
