Interview with Chan Woo Kim
Chan Woo Kim was born in Seoul, South Korea. After a move in 2002 to the Philippines, a 2005 move took him and his parents to Cook County, Illinois, where they settled up to the present day. His high school education at John Hersey High School in Arlington Heights, Illinois proved to be filled with academic, personal, and career-focused success - after realizing his passion for movies, he became a member of his school’s film club, and went on to create his own production company (Kim, Chan Woo Productions) and his own films. At the same time, he worked on projects in collaboration with John Hersey High School. He rounded out his education and graduated as part of the National Honor Society in 2018. During high school, he also participated in summer film programs, at the University of Southern California and Columbia College Chicago, and began his internship for producing, assistant directing, and production assistance with Warner Bros (2017 to present). His interest in film led him to study filmmaking with a focus in directing at Columbia College Chicago, where he’s set to graduate with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2022. His goal as a professional filmmaker is to use the films he creates to deliver his message and voice to the audience, and inspire them.https://digitalcommons.colum.edu/capturingquarantine/1005/thumbnail.jp

\u3ci\u3eTrapped\u3c/i\u3e
WHY THIS SUBJECT?: I chose this long exposure self portrait because I kind of wanted to show that life is still moving even though we are stuck indoors. Every time I go out, I wear a mask to ensure that I keep myself and others safe. I wanted to include that in this image because I think the visual of someone wearing a mask is very powerful no matter the circumstances.
STAYING INDOORS THOUGHTS: Shelter in place is both the same and different for everyone. Everyone is under the same orders, but each experience is different. Some are handling it okay, some are destroyed by it. There are different degrees of distraught among everyone, and sometimes that\u27s hard to see just by looking at a photo of someone or talking to them every once and awhile. Many keep what they are feeling to themselves because they just don\u27t know how to deal with it. There\u27s no doubt that everyone wants this to be over, but it should be very clear that it can\u27t end unless people comply with the shelter in place orders. It\u27s difficult, but it has to be done.
WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT THE IMAGE: I took this at a 1 second exposure to capture my movement. I used the Canon Camera Connect app on my phone to shoot this self portrait on my porch. I find that the blurriness adds an effect to the photo that makes it what it is; without it the photo would lack meaning and visual interest.https://digitalcommons.colum.edu/stuckindoors/1004/thumbnail.jp
