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.

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.

Reel #4 - Coming Soon

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.

Coal Tipple: A Three-Part Story

These three short reels follow the Coal Tipple through a simple three-act story structure: arrival, discovery, and reckoning.

The story begins with curiosity — a strange industrial structure rising out of the landscape, quiet now, but clearly built for noise, labor, movement, and purpose. At first glance, it may look like an abandoned relic. But places like this are never just ruins. They are evidence.

In the second act, the Coal Tipple begins to speak. Its steel, concrete, shadows, and silence point back to a time when coal moved through this place, when workers, machines, rail lines, and entire communities were tied to the rhythm of extraction. What remains is more than architecture — it is the footprint of an industry that shaped towns, families, landscapes, and lives.

By the final reel, the story turns reflective. The Coal Tipple becomes a reminder that progress always leaves something behind. Some places are preserved. Some are forgotten. Some stand in between, asking us to look closer before they disappear completely.

Created in collaboration with The Post and Courier, these reels capture the weight, texture, and quiet power of the Coal Tipple — one structure, one story, and one frame at a time.
