PAST PROJECTS
« OSAKA KITCHEN »
"Osaka Kitchen" was a project in French realized in Japan with an independent journalist.
We produced a series of audio reports in order to make people discover the city of Osaka through an unknown aspect : its cooking.
Our work was published in 2015 by several medias and for website Asialyst (where journalists and experts specialized in Asia contribute) was one of them. To allow new people to discover the project afterwards, we also created our own website to display the whole work : www.osaka-kitchen.net
« 11 MARS 2011, GERER L'URGENCE MEDIATIQUE »
"2011, March 11th : how the medias dealt with emergency" was a project in French language realized in Japan.
One year after the Tôhuku events (earthquake, tsunami and then the Fukushima crisis), I wanted to investigate how the local and foreign medias, as well as the local public authorities dealt with information through and after what occurred.
I realized an audio synthesis with some of the interviewee.
I also realized a photographic report in the devastated areas.
« BULGARIE, J'Y SUIS, J'Y RESTE »
"Bulgaria, I love it so I stay" was a project in French realized in Bulgaria with a few classmates in Sofia, Bulgaria.
We set up this project to put in the spotlight these Bulgarian not giving up and deciding to stay to offer a brighter future to their country. A country with a negative net migration which encounters many political, economic and social issues.
We produced a webdocumentary in 2013. The user interface did not age very well but the content itself remains interesting.
