My “Nifty TIFFty” Marathon
Film brings together so much of what I love: culture, critique, storytelling, and the chance to see through someone else’s eyes.
After attending the Toronto International Film Festival in 2025, I turned my experience into a website that others could follow along with. This project connects my interest in film with my work in digital design.

01 / Starting point
From attending to sharing.
Attending TIFF gave me a personal experience to build around. I wanted to bring that experience online so someone who wasn’t there could still follow along.
The website became a way to connect two interests: engaging with film and deciding how to present that experience to a reader.
02 / My approach
Make the experience the story.
I chose a website as a place to bring my TIFF experience together. It gave the project a home that I could share with people beyond the festival.
My focus was the connection between the medium and the subject: how could a digital project express my interest in film, culture, and critique?
03 / The outcome
A place to follow along.
My “Nifty TIFFty” Marathon brings this experience into a standalone website. The finished project is available to explore online.

Where my interests meet.
I’m drawn to projects that cross disciplines and mediums. This project brings film and web design together around something I experienced firsthand.
What matters to me is the human connection: film can help us understand another perspective, and a website can offer a way to share our own.
