Smash cut to a seller at their table.

Nick: I’m Nick, and today I’m selling mostly offset prints, zines, and a couple prints of some digital and physical collages that I’ve made. I’m just super excited to be here.  It’s actually my first time being in the annual art sale. So yeah, I’m just excited to see people’s works, especially seeing a lot of printmakers and ceramics workers and other people who’ve made things that I am not able to make. So yeah, it’s cool to support other artists and feel supported by the people that I go to school with.

While Nick speaks, we are shown quick shots of what Nick is selling, what others are selling, and students walking around the tables and talking. This continues to end of the video, when the screen fades to white.

The words “Buy. Sell. Support.” appear on the screen. The word “support” is pink. The video ends with the F Newsmagazine logo on a white background.
