A paid research placement at the University of Windsor has turned into something recent graduate Ashley Jun (BA '24) never expected: a first step toward a career in film production.
Just two months after Jun graduated with a BA in Communication, Media, and Film, she found herself working on the set of Plan C, a feature film produced in Windsor with a local cast and crew. What began as a production assistant role quickly evolved into a much larger responsibility — and helped clarify where she wants her career to go next.
