Dead Men

Sam Astley is a musician, guitarist, producer and frontman to Penny Orchids. He also produces music for film,  and his recent project  'Back Issue' won first prize at Danny Boyles' Shuffle Short Film Festival.
He asked me to create a film as a backdrop to DEAD MEN: Short Stories in Music at Lime Wharf, London. The film was used to inspire improvised instrumental music played live to an audience. I enjoy experimenting with moving images, the awe and wonder of nature captured in a moment, the simple beauty of the natural world and our relationship with it. Sometimes I think life or time is like a movie that can be broken down into frames...and along the way we do our own edit.
Here are a few pictures from the eve... mostly photos whilst setting up... more to come...
