Karen Rodriguez

As well as producing my own films and videos, I worked in the film industry for six years.  I gained valuable experience as a camera assistant and union grip and lighting technician while working on a wide variety of productions. This industry experience has helped me in the classroom.  I am able to give students a distinct background in the craft of media production that will facilitate their ability to express their visions and ideas through light, color, shape and movement.

My creative work crosses modes from narrative to experimental to documentary.  For information on my past work check out my personal website.

My latest work has been a collaboratively produced oral history of organic farmers and farming practices in Nova Scotia, Canada.  You can read about the Farmer-Mentor Project at www.heliostrust.ca.  Click on the Projects link on the left.
