Reflection
As an artist, people, quotes, and events inspire me to continuously make art. I have always been pulled by the ocean, but I never really have noticed or thought about the actual water that I swim in. Even beyond that, I wonder about the fish and other marine animals that have to live in that same water. Their water also contains plastics, bacteria, sewage and other unpleasant items. My initial thought was to create a film in relation to San Francisco, where I live. Overall my main idea was to create an informational film based on this one idea that our ocean is contaminated. Essentially I wanted to give you inspiration to help clean our ocean. I learned so many things firsthand that I will take with me on my journey to adulthood. As youth, we especially need to learn how to make things better for the future of our environment.
