Keep it Real

Responsibilities: Director and Videographer of Interactive Dramas

Keep It Real is a TV and Web project for teens produced to help educate them about the consequences of inappropriate risk-taking behavior. The TV show provides teens with Realistic Education About Dying Young, based on Palmetto Health Richland’s Project READY program in Columbia, South Carolina.

This Documentary is the first of several to emerge out of the need to produce more local content. We where armed with a camera and an idea to develop a 30 minute documentary that would illustrate the dangers of risky behavior. The team worked closely with a group of inspiring teenagers and passionate Doctors to develop Keep It Real.

I was commissioned to write, produce and direct five interactive non-linear dramas that are featured on the Keep It real Website as well as the Interactive DVD.
