The Fear Project
However, the Haunted House did not stand on its own. Throughout the fall, as we prepared for the community-wide haunted house, clients worked individually on video pieces as part of The Fear Project. We knew that zombies and haunted houses represented one kind of fear. But we were also interested in looking at other kinds of fear, in understanding all of the ways we, as a community, experience and understand fear. And so, throughout the four months we worked on this project, clients created videos that talked about fear in all kinds of ways - everything from a fear of heights to a fear of losing custody of a child.
An introduction to the Fear Project, combining pieces from several individual client projects.
