Post and Courier “On the Road” Collaboration:
Short-form visual stories created with The Post and Courier, exploring place, history, movement, and memory across the Lowcountry and beyond.
Adventures with Duncan partnered with The Post and Courier to create a new series entitled “On the Road”. Short-form visual stories that explore the people, landscapes, history, and overlooked details of the Lowcountry and beyond. These reels blend travel, local culture, personal reflection, and documentary-style storytelling — offering viewers a deeper look at the character of each place.
Long-form stories (over 5 minutes runtime) are released on YouTube, and short-form stories (60-second stories) are published on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and YouTube .
Built around documentary-style storytelling, the series explores history, culture, movement, memory, and the quiet details often missed along the way.
Georgetown, South Carolina: A Four-Part Story
These four short reels explore Georgetown, South Carolina, through a simple story arc: origins, discovery, change, and renewal.
The story begins beyond the waterfront, at Hampton Plantation, where the wealth that helped shape Georgetown was rooted in rice, rivers, land, and enslaved labor. Long before Front Street became a destination, this landscape was part of an economy that transformed the Lowcountry—and left a complicated legacy that still belongs to the story of the place.
From there, Georgetown begins to reveal itself. Cross the bridge, turn toward Front Street, and the mood changes. Boats move along the waterfront. Restaurants and shops fill the old commercial district. Historic buildings stand beside a working harbor. What looked like a name on a map becomes something lived-in, textured, and surprisingly alive.
But Georgetown has never been frozen in time. From the air, another story comes into view: industry, the remnants of mills, demolition, empty spaces, and a town continually reshaping itself. Beauty and change exist side by side here, and the scars are every bit as much a part of Georgetown as the postcard views.
And then there are the children learning to sail. Small boats, shifting wind, uncertain hands on the tiller. Watching them, Georgetown begins to feel like something larger than a place. Maybe towns—and people—find their way the same way: by getting out there, adjusting to the wind, learning from the current, and discovering what happens next.
Created in collaboration with The Post and Courier, these reels explore Georgetown as more than a destination—a place shaped by history, work, loss, resilience, and the people who continue to move it forward.
The Ruins of Old Sheldon Church: A Four-Part Story
These four short reels explore the ruins of Old Sheldon Church through a simple three-act story structure: arrival, remembrance, and renewal.
The story begins with uncertainty — a quiet road, shifting sand, and the remains of a church standing beneath ancient live oaks. Old Sheldon does not announce itself. There are no doors to open and no roof overhead. Only columns, weathered brick, and the unmistakable feeling that something important happened here.
In the second act, the ruins begin to reveal their history. Built, damaged, rebuilt, and damaged again, Old Sheldon has endured war, fire, abandonment, and time. Yet the walls remain. The silence becomes part of the story, allowing memory, history, and reflection to occupy the spaces where a congregation once gathered.
By the final reels, the story turns toward renewal. A simple hand pump, a drink of water, and a quiet moment beneath the trees become reminders that renewal rarely arrives with great ceremony. Sometimes it begins by pausing, paying attention, and allowing a place to show you something about yourself.
Created in collaboration with The Post and Courier, these reels capture the history, stillness, and quiet power of Old Sheldon Church — a place of memory, a place of reflection, and, every once in a while, a place of renewal.
Edisto Island: A Four-Part Story
These four short reels follow Edisto Island through a simple three-act story structure: arrival, discovery, and reflection.
The story begins with motion — the road south, the map, the pull toward a quieter place that seems to sit just outside the noise of the modern world. Edisto doesn’t announce itself with spectacle. It asks you to slow down. To look closer. To let the marsh, the trees, the old roads, and the stillness do the talking.
In the second act, the island begins to reveal itself. A churchyard. A roadside moment. A passing motorcycle. A voiceover about distance, memory, and the strange feeling of arriving somewhere that already feels half familiar. Edisto becomes more than a destination — it becomes a mood.
By the final reel, the story turns inward. The island is no longer just a place on the map. It becomes a reminder that sometimes the best journeys are not about how far you go, but how deeply you pay attention once you arrive.
Created in collaboration with The Post and Courier, these reels capture the motion, atmosphere, and quiet mystery of Edisto Island — one frame, one road, and one story at a time.
