Nowness is featuring an exclusive clip from a film that I worked on, Become A Microscope 90 Statements on Sister Corita.
Become A Microscope is the second film by Aaron Rose, the follow up to the documentary Beautiful Losers.
This short film is organized around 90 statements that are made by the interviewees about our favorite radical art nun.
I created the numbers that flash on screen to denote the statements.
I used the same observational techniques that Corita taught to her students to create the numbers.
The clip is one of my favorite sections in the film, where she takes her students to a Carwash.
The editing on this was skillfully handled by my friend Lenny Mesina. The really cool ABC animation was made by Max Erdenberger. The music for the film was all written and performed by Money Mark.
Check out all of the numbers I made for the film here.
