Stranger on the Street: Pipeline Project

Say hi to Jeff:

I met Jeff on a photo-walk one Saturday morning. I had a brief conversation with him, asked to photograph him, then proceeded to buying him Tim Hortons from next door for his sincerity.
Jeff here is an example of the tone I want to set in my Pipeline Project production. Though he is not in a crowd, which is the direction I'm taking with that film, I still feel this is a good example from my own personal work. 
The viewer can tell Jeff is on the outskirts of the mass of society. He presumably is homeless, jobless, or in some form of struggle - this is all we know. We see the kindness in his eyes but are not bombarded with personal information. 
This man would normally be overlooked, but here he his, the focal point.
This is the main idea of my Pipeline Project.
