"Cool. I won? Oh, I won, I won!"
"Scrub the gloating, Red, or I'll so put a hex on you."
In Step with America's Little People
"Cool. I won? Oh, I won, I won!"
"Scrub the gloating, Red, or I'll so put a hex on you."
It was my good fortune recently to stumble upon a small overlooked community in the heart of my own neighborhood. The inhabitants invited me into their homes and shared their histories with me. My heart was touched. Hitherto these people have had no voice. Unaccountably ignored by telemarketers and pollsters alike, it is nevertheless apparent that we have much to learn from them. They are truly America's little people, their joys and plights mirroring the country at large.
I am not an anthropologist. Nor am I experienced in making documentaries. Yet I could not help but see how much we have to learn from these amazing individuals, and so set myself about the business of bringing their stories to the world.
America, welcome to Plasticopia!

wow. how long does it take you to finish like one chapter?
Way too long! I love the photos that don't require much editing, because they go up quick. On the other hand, I am fascinated by the whole process, so time passes very fast while I am doctoring photos or redoing dialogue. It's the creative process, the quest to get better! But it is safe to say that many hours go into each chapter.
