UNF School of Communication alumni Lee Giat ’20 and Sydney Strimer ’21 transformed their shared love of storytelling into Flying Ostrich Media, a thriving video production company.
Their time at UNF helped shape their creative paths — Giat through science and media, and Strimer through documentary filmmaking — leading to impactful work across the U.S. and beyond.
Now, with their first feature-length documentary, "Wright of Passage", premiering at UNF in January 2026, their journey comes full circle.
