This month's Spotlight features Michelle, a former Film and Media Studies and English double major who's now commanding cameras, scripts, and crews, shaping the world through filmmaking.

Michelle, on getting film experience as a student:

"Because I felt nervous about catching up after my major change, I jumped into it immediately. I sat in the film building and introduced myself to everyone that walked by. I volunteered for all their projects--a lot of things that felt really outside my comfort zone. And it worked out so well that I'm still doing it and still loving it."
