http://vimeo.com/34096660

I have been fortunate to work with a team of talented documentary filmmakers and a gamut of design-minded individuals while at Ponyride over the winter to realize this video. I am looking forward to getting back to the ‘D’ after I finish my thesis focusing on: ‘The Creative Entrepreneur being a Catalyst for Revitalization in a Post-Industrial City.’ I am finishing my MFA in Design Management at SCAD so keep checking back for more updates.

Please view to see: “Ponyride is a study to see how the foreclosure crisis can have a positive impact on our communities. Using an ‘all boats rise with the tide’ rent subsidy, we are able to provide cheap space for socially-conscious artists and entrepreneurs to work and share knowledge, resources and networks. We purchased a 30,000 square-foot warehouse for $100,000 and offer space for $0.10-$0.20 per square-foot, which includes the cost of utilities.”
