Portfolio
In early 2020, California was enduring an alarming rise in COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations and deaths. But one community had succeeded at keeping the virus at bay -- offering potential lessons on how early action on the pandemic can change outcomes. This video is co-produced by Meiying Wu and Alyson Stamos; shot by Meiying Wu and edited by James Tensuan with sound recorded by Christian Collins.
Mingzhu Fu was born into art. Growing up watching his grandfather’s marionette performances in Quanzhou, China, Mingzhu picked up a knife to craft his own puppets when he graduated high school in 1980. Forty years later, he continues on with his craft, spending up to 10 hours a day on his marionettes. His passion has passed on to his children, who follow in their father’s footsteps, carving and crafting marionettes, keeping the family tradition alive.
This film is produced, directed, shot, translated, scripted and edited by Meiying Wu with the Genesis Student Film Fellowship at Great Big Story in 2019.
