Myles David Jewell still has not found his greatest contradiction.
Myles works as a film and video maker, not specializing in one trade or form.
His work- sometimes auto-ethnographic, experimental, fictional, non-fiction, commercial; is all a practice.
He runs Pennington Productions, which produces non-fiction and hybrid feature, shorts and installations. His partner in all things, Alexandra Morrow runs Armadillo Collective.
He believes firmly in the ethics of representation and collaborative approaches to media production, seeing the work as a community building exercise. His practice fluctuates between minimal resource filmmaking and larger more technical productions. He is a nerd for form.
He lives and works in Burlington, Vermont, where he will put his bones to rest.
He is a Lecturer at The University of Vermont. He has wanted to be a teacher since he was a wee lad.
