America Has a Problem is an experimental short film based on the song of the same name by Beyonce Knowles Carter. The short film pays tribute to the 2000s and early 2010s pop and club music era. With the film's central theme of hope, a defining feature of said eras, that all of us need right now. Some shots and moments were a combination of shot material and downloaded videos. This film showcases my ability to take random video clips and create something interesting, like how a composer creates music.
