Press

It takes a gustsy storyteller to attempt such a film. Kerfeld delivers an abstract story presented through a docile and beautiful landscape…at just six minutes or so, it is at all times intriguing.

Josh Samford
, Rogue Cinema (March 09)

In the end, “Fingers” is something of a classic short film. It pushes the audience to use their heads, rather than relying on only their eyes and ears.

Corey Light, University News (April 2009)

Art on the Block” is a polished, informative and thought-provoking 20-minute documentary about public art, corporate philanthropy, artistic expression and civic redevelopment. It is a thoroughly professional piece of work. You’d never know it was made by students.

Robert W. Butler
, Kansas City Star (May 2007)

I am writing in regards to Jordan Kerfeld’s Jan. 31 forum piece “University floor-starers need to look up.” Jordan articulates himself exceptionally well. He did the academic research and talked with a professor, someone we can all relate to. Plus, he talked about something that really matters on this campus. What has happened in the opinion section in the past was a bunch of ranting and raving that usually was not backed up credibly. Jordan sounded intelligent. I’m glad he is a part of The University News. And his drawings are phenomenal.
