In 2018, in collaboration with the film company Barefaced Greek, we made a short film of the “Ode to Man” from Sophocles’ Antigone with twelve UBC students. This talk will screen that film and discuss the process of undertaking this kind of practice-based research with students as part of a study abroad course to Greece. It will also discuss our next project, a film of the Dawn chorus from Euripides’ fragmentary tragedy Phaethon, to be filmed on the island of Naxos in May 2022.
