Athlete Storytelling
"My Old Stuff" brings Chicago Cubs alumni back into the emotional core of their playing careers through a simple but powerful device: a trunk filled with meaningful artifacts from their time with the organization. Each item—whether a piece of memorabilia, a photograph, or a familiar piece of equipment—serves as a catalyst for unscripted storytelling, unlocking memories that span the emotional spectrum from humorous clubhouse moments to deeply personal reflections on legacy, relationships, and identity. The objective of the piece is to honor the enduring bond between Cubs players and the organization by capturing authentic, human reactions to tangible pieces of their shared history. Rather than relying on traditional retrospective narration or highlight-driven storytelling, the creative approach centers on memory activation through physical objects, allowing each alumnus to guide the narrative organically as they reconnect with moments that shaped their careers and lives. What makes this work unique is its restraint and authenticity. The storytelling is intentionally minimal in structure, allowing emotion and memory to lead. The trunk becomes a narrative device that transforms historical artifacts into living moments, bridging past and present in real time. Through observational filmmaking, subtle pacing, and an emphasis on genuine reaction, the piece reframes Cubs history not as a collection of achievements, but as a deeply personal and communal experience shared between players, teammates, fans, and the city of Chicago.
