Lesson 27 from my course How to Kickstart Your First Documentary will help you get a different perspective, and fine-tune your documentary into a multidimensional creation. I am reworking a film I made for my mother on her life in Shanghai, The Sea Hut, into a scrapbook which she can have by her side and read through. 

I was invited to speak with Emma Cox from Emma Cox Genealogy for her podcast where we brainstorm how to go deeper with your story through scrapbooking both manually and digitally.

Scrapbooking has allowed me to have a real break away from the 
technical, it is deeply satisfying. I am in and out of craft shops, buying Washi paper, stencils, coloured gel pens. I have also begun to give more workshops offline on scrapbooking. I am having a really great creative break! Try it!


Any book will do
  • Photo Album
  • Small bound book
  • Paper bound together with string
  • Old fashioned scrapbook
  • PDF
  • Powerpoint​

  • Remember, any format will do.
  • A big book, a small book. A photo album. 

Thank you. Have a great day. Enjoy and get creative. More about workshops here
