ACE BURPEE, WINNIPEG FREE PRESS -- Shoup directed a documentary called COVID/CHOIR. The doc was a look into how choir could be taught when, due to pandemic restrictions, you’re basically not allowed to sing. It featured his choir teacher and Winnipeg Jets anthem singer Stacey Nattrass-Brown, and was submitted to the Winnipeg Film Group’s Gimme 10 in 30! Doc Challenge. Ten aspiring filmmakers were chosen to make a documentary in 30 days. Shoup’s doc not only broke through at its first screening, it went on to be accepted into international festivals around the world. Love it.
