Inspired by films like Leviathan (2012) and Sans Soleil (1983), Both the imperm anence of things and CATNATOMY were created to experiment with videography as an extension of my photography. Both films are video portraits of two subjects.
the imperm anence of things was shot over five months during the spring of 2022. I captured footage with the general vision of creating moving portraiture, and as I compiled the footage I crafted the narrative within the edit.
CATNATOMY was initially filmed as a cinematography project for Barry Kirk's class at The University of New Mexico. After completing the assignment I continued to film the subject and recompiled the film using music composed by Wesley Abbe. The track "The House Cat" which was used in the film was included on Abbe's album Organism
