The film is a psychological look at the effects of the Holocaust, and on genocide in general, on the descendants of the actual survivors. We've shot globally in the US, Canada, Brazil, Argentina, and South Africa, as we assess how geography, politics, and culture all play a role in the Holocaust's continued impact. The film is about 50% completed, and hopes are to complete it over the next year or two.
Adam Rubin Photography Reel
A small sample of the unique eye and vision I bring to the table. I have developed a style built on personal exploration and skills and techniques learned while studying at USC film school. I believe my vision translates well both in the cinematic and still photography world. The reel also explores some of the many cultures and countries that Ive experienced. I bring this experience into my work, giving me a unique multi-cultural spin on the world we live in.
