Above and Below
1min30sec (16MB), Spring 2005

This movie explores the potential to experience multiple perspectives through film in a manner impossible in real life. Inspired by a walk I took with an umbrella, the way it divides what hovers above from what lies below, I filmed these opposing views simultaneously. With every jolt, bump, and stop in lockstep, the parallels and contrasts between the above and the below become more apparent. In fracturing the totality of our worldview, I attempt to explore the relations of those experiences which occur while our attention is focused elsewhere.
