IT'S JUST US

Production + Post Production

"It's Just Us" is a short film about the project We Are All Homeless, and its founder Willie Baronet. We Are All Homeless is an art and advocacy project that began in 1993, exploring questions of compassion, humanity and what home really means. I am a former student of Willie Baronet at SMU, and was always influenced by his ability to unlock creativity in others, and in myself. Willie Baronet is the former owner and creative director of GroupBaronet (now MasonBaronet), and now teaches Creative Advertising at SMU Meadows School of the Arts. This film explores his impact on not just the homelessness awareness movement, but his students on a day-to-day basis. The production of this short film took place during SMU’s first We Are All Homeless exhibition at the Meadows School of the Arts with collaboration with photographer Leah den Bok.
