What is Unity?

Unity is a documentary that shares a “day in the life” of YOU during the COVID-19 quarantine time.  We want to see a slice of life from your perspective. Film it, document it, and upload it! 
 
It’s okay if your day is BORING! SERIOUSLY! WE WANT YOUR BORING FOOTAGE! JUST KEEP IT UNDER 3 MINS YO!

Find unity in your global tribe

In an unprecedented time for our species we want to bring you a unique film challenge to help foster creative unity in a world now filled with social distancing.

How Long Does it Have to Be?
No longer than 3 mins. 
 
Does it have to be edited?
If you can assemble your footage in a basic edit, that would be awesome! No music, no transitions, necessary,  I want a boring cut of your day!

Fostering her talents as a communicator from an early age, Anna Jane Edmonds (AJ) has spent her life entertaining and education audiences through film and TV. After devoting two years at Toronto’s Randolph Academy, she attended Western University and graduated in 2013 as gold medalist from FIMS. AJ then carried on to the UCLA to study the business of film producing. In 2014 she secured a job at Silver Pictures Entertainment in both the management and development office during the production of the films THE NICE GUYS and COLLIDE.

Her motivation is drawn from the desire to affect those around her and leave the world to come in a better place than where she found it. Film and TV, in her words, are the most powerful mediums for change; and she intends to be at the helm of the changes to come.
