Jean: Voyage into Black
2019
Film consultant, technical consultant
“Jeanne encouraged me to take the leap of faith and pick up the camera to make my film about Jean Capdeville, to put aside my fears and self-doubt and go ahead - not to wait for improbable funding and to ignore the naysayers who said I couldn’t do it because I was professionally untrained. I took her advice and am thankful - for without her support I would have stopped there and then. Since then she has she invited me twice to Montreal where I witnessed her commitment to the tough business of filmmaking first-hand, firstly with her completion of Dust: a Sculptor’s Journey (about her friend the late sculptor Stanley Lewis ), then in the filming of Chez Lise (her second documentary feature, about a low income boarding house and the love story of two of its residents with mental health issues)”.
Helena's film JEAN CAPDEVILLE Voyage into Black has been selected for the Media Library 2020, Visions du Réel, International Film Festival Nyon.

Jeanne helped me when I was totally stuck, blocked and wanted to give up with my first documentary. She helped me find another way to tell my story, I am grateful to have had the help, understanding and her guidance, and that she didn't give up on me! Thank you

Dr. Bénédicte Ronfard
Psychologue/Psychologist (Director/Scriptwriter) "I've known Jeanne forever it seems, and our friendship and interest in our respective work has traveled through time and countries. Her writings were at the root of a number of projects I worked on. Jeanne used to write a lot; I mean: A LOT! Mounds of short stories, some finished, some not, beginnings of ideas, of novels, reflections, erupted from her pen in what seemed to be an inexhaustible stream, fueled by people she met in the street, at work, at a café, while buying bred or sitting in a park. One of these gold nuggets, Lilith’s day off, was at the origin of a short film I edited, Anjelica, written and directed by James Galwey. Another one, The Dog, inspired him to write the scenario of what was to be my first feature film, Katryn’s Place. I rewrote Philadelphia from a short story for a script. Time passed, and she became a documentary film-maker, which, in retrospect, is the natural progression of her creative process because what she wrote were the stories of real people she sublimated through fiction. But life, when you dig deep into it, is already sublime if you know where and how to look, which is what Jeanne does. And now, in a wonderful reversal of her medium of expression, the quality of her documentaries is novel-like." |

James Galwey
co-director of CHEZ LISE "What is it like to work with someone with a whirlwind of ideas and emotions in the head, someone not afraid of hard work and doing whatever is necessary to get the job done? Respectful and interested, and interesting, I found Jeanne to be the perfect foil to work with when we made Chez Lise, a documentary on a couple of mentally damaged souls living in a rundown, Montreal rooming house. Starting in 2009, it took us four years to make – following the couple’s story for three years and then 12 months of editing and polishing the final product – and over that time, we discussed and talked every step of the way. She was always open to my suggestions, as I was to her, and never afraid to try something new – even when she was not so certain. It was a pleasure to work with her. I watched the documentary not so long ago and I still find it touching, moving – but I think more than anything, the documentary is a reminder of a magical moment in time, and the pleasure I found in creating a beautiful object with someone I respect immensely." |

."Jeannette Pope is who teaching me documentary course and professional English course. I have known her in 2015. She started to teach me documentary creation very early. Including my graduation work, I chose documentary creation and made a different attempt Documentary, which she is good at. She has made a long-term personal documentary by herself. In my creation, she brought me a lot of inspiration. When I first created a personal documentary, it was a difficult problem to cut the trivial and emotional scenes into a narrative with a vein, but it was very smooth in J's view smooth things. We talked about documentary many times before and after. At the same time, I felt the joy of documentary creation in the process of the completion of the film. |

Graduate Student bfamcmc Jeannette Pope是我的纪录片课程的老师和专业英语课程的老师，我15年就和她认识了，她很早就开始教导我纪录片的创作。包括我的毕业作品，我选择了纪录片创作，并且进行了一个不同以往的尝试，personal documentary，这也是我的导师擅长的，她自己拍了一部时间跨度很长的个人纪录片，我在我的这次创作里她给我带来了很多灵感，在我第一次进行个人纪录片的创作时，如何把琐碎的、情感的镜头剪辑成一个带有脉络的叙事体，是一个难题，但这在J看来这是件非常顺畅的事情。我们前后关于纪录片的事情沟通了很多次，片子的完成同时，在这个过程里，我感受到了纪录片创作的乐趣。她的上课方式是非常具有耐心的，总是能轻松的感受到学生的想法和需求，并尽自己最大的能力去帮助学生克服创作中国遇到的种种问题，她的包容性很强，尊重在创作中存在的任何想法并且支持我们去实现。这在我看来是很难能可贵的品质，她在学生身上，在纪录片的创作上花费了很多时间，有时候是责任和义务之外的事情但她也会说“这是我的职责。 ”因为热情和认真的态度，不仅是在纪录片学习上感染了我， 在面对创作这件事，我的态度也发生了转变，这是我巨大的收获。 Her way of class is very patient, she can always EASILY feel the students' ideas and needs, and try her BEST to help students overcome all kinds of problems. She is very inclusive, respects any ideas in creative and supports us . It seems to me a rare quality. She spent a lot of time on the students and the creation of documentaries, sometimes beyond her responsibilities and obligations, but she would also say, "this is my responsibility." Because enthusiasm and serious attitude, not only in the documentary learning infected me, in the face of the creation of this matter, my attitude has also changed, which is my great harvest." |

Graduate Student "Jeannette is my university teacher in China and guided me during my documentary film. She is also helping with my MFA thesis defense at Concordia Film School. Montreal. Canada She mentored me, helping me complete my work for the LightStar Awards and my graduation work. Jeannette taught me the basics of editing, organizing my material, and helping me find my idea and going through rough-cut to fine cut. She taught me the process and the need to have not only quality but soul and passion. As a documentary filmmaker, Jeannette has a wide range of themes and styles.I met her when she came to our school to give a lecture and introduce her documentary film about a Montreal artist, Stanley Lewis. It was when she spoke about the lens and how emotions can be built up, and chasing ‘soul,’ and then I followed her through a film. I was happy when she came to work and was my teacher. She helped me find a path and create energy with my material which I first found so difficult to handle. With her help to become interesting and wonderful. She is interesting in class, lively in class, often in communication with students, very popular with students. Jeannette is a very conscientious teacher." |

Night Swim 11 minutes Fiction l'université d’été: La FEMIS For Jeanne 在2018年，我完成了我的毕业短片《夜航》，之后在青岛独立影展的放映后，我认识了jeanne，她给予了我深切的鼓舞，肯定了我在其中的影像表达手法，而在此之前的很长一段时间，我都陷入在对自己的怀疑的困境中。她给予了我继续创作的勇气，对电影的持续的热爱，对故事讲述的热情。除了积极的能量外，她还帮助了我重新修改了影片的英文字幕、影片的英文简介、故事梗概，使它变得更加完美。我非常感谢Jeanne对我的帮助和鼓励，而在此之后，通过这部影片，我幸运地入选了la FEMIS2019年的l’université d’été，而这一切都离不开Jeanne的帮助。 "In 2018, I finished my graduation short film Night Swim,and after the screening at QDIFF, I met Jeannette. She gave me a deep encouragement and affirmed my image expression skills. Before that, for a long time, I was in the predicament of doubting myself. She gave me the courage to continue to create, continue the loving of film, and the passion to tell stories. In addition to the positive energy, she helped me to revise the English subtitles, the English introduction and the outline of the story to make it more perfect. I'm very grateful for Jeanne's help and encouragement, which helps me get more chances too. After that, through this film, I was lucky to be selected in the l'université d’été of La FEMIS." |

Jeannette Pope是我的同事 ，我的挚友，亦是我的导师。我已经记不清楚我们从何时相识，大概是三四年前，我告诉她我要拍一部纪录片，作为我硕士研究生的毕业作品。她主动对我说：“我一直做记录片，我可以帮助你。”我喜出望外，因为我之前做过编剧，拍过剧情短片，纪录片还是第一次拍，仅仅看过一点点理论书籍，可以说Jeannette的出现如给我带来了一根救命稻草，让我看到了希望。我迅速地与她讨论选题，我选中的是一个建筑工人，他叫石富华，人们都称他石老大，家住在远离青岛350公里的临沂市，为供养一双儿女读书，来到建筑工地打工，每一天工作十几个小时，每年仅回家一两 |
