Rise and Shine
You have to get up pretty early to get the best of Southern Studies Students Matt Hopper and Jen Lawrence. Above is a rough cut of their short documentary about erstwhile Oxford politico Shine Morgan. Matt & Jen are producing the documentary for Dr. Justin Nystrom’s SST 402 class. MPD producer Joe York has worked with Dr. Nystrom and his students all semester helping them produce short documentaries for MPD’s ongoing Oxonians Oral History Project.
