DESCRIPTION

This is one of those classic “works in progress”. Simply put, it’s a short film exploring the relationship between natural and built environments. To sound more esoteric, it’s an orintho-architectural narrative (i.e. it’s a story about some birds at Mies van der Rohe’s Farnsworth House).

Originally concepted as a motion design piece, shooting live-action footage became a priority after stumbling upon a Kenny Chesney video from a couple years back. Production will hopefully resume after the House recovers from recent flooding and when some generous benefactor allows us to shoot with a RED camera (hint, hint). Not quite sure which will come first…
