Spring Street International School’s virtual spring speaker series returns starting this Tuesday, March 15 from 6 to 7 p.m.

In the first of five sessions between March 15 and April 21, Joe Van Eeckhout of the Spring Street class of 2006 will discuss his journey as a cinematographer and filmmaker. Joe describes his experience this way:

Raised between Wyoming, Washington, and Alaska, the American West is where he draws most of his inspiration. After spending nearly a decade on the East Coast of the USA and three years based in East Africa, he returned to the West. Joe seeks to tell impactful, character-driven stories about rural America and the issues faced by its communities.

Joe has been behind the camera for multiple documentary films and recently he has worked on projects for Chums, Hulu, HBO Documentaries, Nat Geo Docs, The New York Times, VICE, and more.

Joe’s experience spans from branded production to non-fiction television, to documentary news and film. He has worked both domestically and internationally, recently working abroad in India, Philippines, Democratic Republic of the Congo, South Sudan, Ethiopia, Sudan, and Somalia.

Advance registration is required to receive the Zoom link for the March 15 presentation.
