Abstract
This multimedia project explores the well-being of two working senior citizens from different backgrounds, physical, psychological and emotional health, and socioeconomic statuses. The unfiltered realities of aging and growing old coming from completely different perspectives reintroduces the inevitability of the cycle of life– death, the idea that constantly lurks in their system as they are in the later stage of their lives. From a comfortable home to a stable bahay kubo, these individuals continue to navigate the present whilst reminiscing significant memories of the past that they still hold today. The very core message of The Elders’ Memoir is that death is the ultimate equalizer, regardless of one’s status in life. Despite the far strata of the subjects from one another, a common denominator with regards to their current state was found through the interviews conducted in between their respective production weeks. The project is predominantly a photo essay with an audio narration of the two subjects. They were documented for one week each, following and observing their daily activities. A shooting script, shot list, and captions were drafted as a guide for the production and post-production phases of the thesis. All photographs and interview audio recordings were done in person with the proponents’ own equipment.
