Spoken Word - Forest City
This spoken word is called Forest City! It’s about London Ontario and what this city means to me. 💙
I have officially lived in London for 9 years now. I moved here in August 2015. The footage in this video are clips I’ve gathered over the past 9 years of various shots of London that have stood out to me or have had a significant impact on me. Some of it was filmed on my Canon XA15 camera, some on my iPhone 12 Pro, some on the iPhone XR, and the older clips were filmed on the iPhone SE (1st generation) before I started film school.
I definitely feel I’ve grown up here. And I did! My 20s were full of growth and self discovery, and this city supported me and my journey. Supports like Fanshawe College, CMHA, Youth Opportunities Unlimited, Intercommunity, and many others. And while there are undoubtedly many things that need to be improved in London, I strongly believe in this city’s abilities, much like how this city believed in me.
Forest City, thank you for being my home. 💙
