"It's an incredible part of who I am, and the life I live, and the things that are important to me."
Bell towers are public instruments, meant to be played for an audience; to be heard by a community. The Cornell Chimes serve as the heartbeat of Cornell University and have done so for over a century. A staff of about ten students per year work to keep the chimes atop McGraw Tower known as one of the most frequently played chimes in the world.
Voices of the Tower is a documentary I produced alongside my partners Nora Noone and Bridget Fallon for a nonfiction production course. I did a majority of the video shooting for this piece, and additionally served as head editor.
The film was broadcast on WCNY, Central New York's public television station, in December 2016.
