Chisa Hughes '12

With the help of MCAN, Chisa was able to work on a small grant-funded documentary project through a television station based in the Northwest. The project focused on big band jazz within the Japanese American internment camps (particularly for the Nisei generation) as a means for exploring and asserting identity. Besides interviewing former internees and musicians, she spent a good deal of her summer working on and learning the animation software for a musical segment that will appear in the final cut.
