People are Strangers is a series of interviews done with subjects I/The Interviewer have never met before the shooting. Effectively being my first introduction to a complete stranger on video. The idea is to have a snap shot of someone you might walk past on the road and never had the opportunity to get to know any better then an avoided glance or quick grin. Through this project I hope to highlight parallels and absolute contrasts but the primary goal of the project is simply to present a study on people with no particular subject but just a glance into who people are. The Anons The subjects of these interviews will have the option of disclosing their involvement with the project but from a production stand point we will not disclose their identities and do a small amount of stylization to the footage to avoid direct clear identification.—William Orendorff
