Short Description:
I am a
huge fan of Candice’s work, the way she uses all the available pop culture
documents to say what she wants to say. Her talk was amongst the best I have
been to this year and her work is also my favorite. Her work around “Mother
and father” is smart, as she pulls out all this context and content from
movies and pop culture that surrounds us everywhere.
Her twin
interviews are extremely deep, yet surprisingly very very entertaining.

Direct Outcomes of this
Event/Activity
(point form précis)
I was
very impressed by the way Candice deals with all the available material to
work with, its there its available and she just takes chunks of it and fits
it perfectly in a new conversation and new context that work perfectly with
what she wants to say. Her mom, dad, Bollywood young actors, and school kids.
Are amazing ways she used footage to make her own scenario. The twin series
is shocking, emotional, entertaining and fun to watch. Her bable series is
just extremely smart! I absolutely love her work. she works with pop culture
of the Americas and occasionally plays with Asian culture. i wish I could see
how middle eastern work would influence her.
