THE NEW NORMAL
Project: The New Normal - Feature Documentary
Production Co: Topspin Content
Role: Director, Second Camera, Editor
The New Normal intimately follows five student survivors of the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting—Gabby, Nicole, Daniel, Brandon, and Kelsey—as they navigate the aftermath of tragedy, from finishing the school year to finding their way forward in a changed world.
As director, camera, and editor, I lived alongside the students and their families for over a year, building trust and capturing their day-to-day lives with care and honesty. The result is a raw and deeply human portrait of trauma, resilience, and the complexities of growing up in the shadow of violence.
The film stands as both a testament to the courage of these young people and a broader reflection on the impact of gun violence in America.
