Ron Howard and Canon on "when you find me"



Project Imagin8ion is an awesome collaboration between Ron Howard and Canon. Photographers submit their best work, in an effort to inspire Howard and his team to weave a story around their photos and bring the story onto film. Howard's daughter, Bryce Dallas, directs this heartwarming, tear-jerker of a film.

One remarkable thing about the internet, and social media in particular, over the past decade is the accessibility of projects and films like these.  They're right there, literally at our fingertips, to enjoy, reflect on, and be inspired by.
"when you find me" tells the story of two sisters whose childhood bond is tested by a tragedy they are too young to understand. Alternating between past and present, 'when you find me' is an emotional fable of two people coping with loss in very different ways, and what it takes to find peace within yourself and reconciliation with the ones you love.


It isn't having access just to the short film itself, but also to the creative process behind the scenes and the gathering at the premier, which I enjoy immensely.  I appreciate the chance to study up on the project, and do something similar, or related, or altogether different.
