MAD CITY

by Inés Bernal Taravillo

Shapes and shadows from Madrid city, my home.

Sunsets and colors, good music and better friends.

There’s something magical about being on a rooftop – having the whole city at your feet without being seen.

Shot from my favorite spot in the world.

How to Destroy the World in 30 Seconds

by Natalya Mykhaylyuk, Anežka Aubrechtová, Sophie Wolge, and Ian Hu

Shot on campus, the film looks at how the most simple, everyday actions can have far-reaching global consequences. In the film, a student (played by Ian Hu) unwittingly contributes to the destruction of the planet with just one lunch and a mere 30 seconds of screentime. The students behind the film hope it can make us stop and think about how our habitual actions impact the world, and hopefully encourage us to take responsibility for preserving our planet.

Made by Natalya Mykhaylyuk, Anežka Aubrechtová, Sophie Wolge, and Ian Hu. They are a group of MA Filmmaking students who feel passionate about climate change and plastic pollution. The task given to the group behind this film was to create a 30-second How To video.
