Covid Hamptons

This video series documents the impact of the covid-19 pandemic on the East Hampton community from the perspective of individual local residents. Running approximately five to eight minutes in length, each video focuses on the first-hand account of an individual, filmed at their workplace. Each subject discusses their experience weathering the pandemic, the impact on their work and personal lives, how they have changed, and what they have learned. This series is produced and filmed by journalist Andrew Visconti.
