Runaway was created for Doug Pray's "Documentary Filmmaking" course during my second year at Colorado College. It is a short about Colorado Springs musician and my dear friend, Shawn D'Amario. It is about the power of music in Shawn's life as he struggles with homelessness, motivation, and the traumatic death of his father. Winner of Best Documentary at the Colorado College Film Festival 2014.
Interviewing Shawn in downtown Colorado Springs.
Doug's unicycling skills are his best kept secret. He liked to ride mine while I was busy editing.
Kyle Lutz and Zach Brown play with Shawn.
Doug bought us nice champagne but we only had mugs and mason jars.
