The Detroit Journal
The focus of our project is creating and publishing high-quality short films that tell true stories about real people in Detroit. We created a web site to show the videos on a monthly basis but we also provide Detroit-centric news and stories in between the film premiers. We premier the videos on our website and offline with a showing at some sort of Detroit space. The stories range anywhere from our latest episode about Lightshow Bob (a 15 year veteran lighting guy for bands in the Detroit area) to the night guard at the DIA. We take suggestions from viewers about people with interesting stories and we either devote a 10-15 minute long short film feature to that story or include their story in some way on our website.
