Consumed By Food - A Radio Documentary

This is a radio doc I made in collaboration with Anita Sthankiya. We chose to focus on body image problems, and our subject Amanda was perfect for the documentary. She was very relaxed and willing to open up about some very personal and sometimes painful aspects of her life as a recovering bulimic. We interviewed her in her home, with her mother and her twin sons as a part of the conversation. I am very proud of this documentary because I think our hard work really shows. We put in many hours and contemplated each clip before we had our final product. Everything worked out really well with this project because we started early and took the time to ensure our doc was exactly how we wanted it. I've entered it for the CBC's Mowatt Award for Student Radio Documentaries. Fingers crossed!
