Andrew is a bit of a gypsy having traipsed across the United States and as a result calls many places and no place home. He earned his BA in Political Science from Metropolitan State College of Denver and his MA in American Studies from the University of New Mexico where he wrote his thesis on Sun Ra and the politics of performance. Sun Ra bent his mind a bit too much to pursue a PhD and figured creating beauty is the way to go. Andrew has made documentaries on the 1999 WTO protests in Seattle, the Israel-Palestinian conflict, calypso music, and access to healthcare for working-class New Mexicans.
Joseph Kraemer, Co-Director
Joe Kraemer hails from Wisconsin, having called Madison, Milwaukee, and now Philly his home. He has a BFA in Film from the University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee, which he attended from 2004 to 2008. He also interned for the Milwaukee International Film Festival in 2007 and has done work for local production companies there. His short films have screened modestly at several film festivals in the Midwest and that small taste of success has left him wanting more. Joe has a particular love for animation, sound design, music, and cinematography. He hopes to explore a hybrid of narrative and documentary and finds his inspiration in the films of the French New Wave, especially Agnes Varda.
