I created two videos for Poetry Out Loud to promote their program to students and facilitators. Poetry Out Loud is a national arts education program that encourages the study of great poetry by offering free educational materials and a dynamic recitation competition for high school students across the country. We collaborated with writer and poet Megan Fernandes to create original text for the piece.
