Overview
Florence 444 Fire and Juliette Rando’s project, Reflections, is an audio-visual archive aimed at capturing the art and culture blossoming out of the queer/trans community of Philadelphia in this particular moment and time. Florence and Juliette intend to create high quality documentation of performances and workshops of artists and educators across Philadelphia that will be both live-streamed and archived to be accessible for decades to come. In addition, Florence and Juliette will invite and train local community members in the technical skills involved in filming and archiving, such as cameras, video mixers, editing, and Open Broadcaster Software (OBS).
