Giving each story the gravity it deserves: A conversation with Halfie Project's Becky White and Cedric Stout
Description
Becky White has been a radio DJ, EDM singer, translator, magazine editor and fashion model - all experiences that she draws upon in the many facets of her work. A biracial Korean-American, she grew up as a military kid and has split her life between the United States and South Korea. Her experiences as a mixed Korean in Korea led her to create the Halfie Project 혼혈이야기, through which she explores mixed Korean identity, both culturally and ethnically, around the world, through multiple mediums including photography, writing, film and interviews. After meeting her partner, Cedric, in Seoul, they decided to relocate to NYC where currently Becky works as an actress and voice talent, while continuing The Halfie Project.
Cedric Stout is a filmmaker, video producer and editor, born in North Carolina, moved to Seoul, South Korea, and now in New York area. The son of a Korean mother and an African-American father, Cedric grew up in an interracial, intercultural home, which has influenced much of his life. His passion for sharing stories through film grew his first YouTube channel in Korea to over 6 million views in a short time, and now he is the co-director and lead cameraman for The Halfie Project 혼혈이야기 with his partner, Becky.
