I am a filmmaker and animator who continues to work with and explore the uses of 16mm and super 8 film while using video as a means to help sculpt the final output in most cases. Continuing with the tangible aesthetic, I hand process most of my film and use hand made cut outs and mattes to fill the film frame in with. There is still a certain magic for me whenever I begin working on film, knowing that something will either come out great or not, or even better something beautiful and unintended occurs and the world of happy accidents makes itself felt. Either way when I develop the film and begin to see the images appear, that's a special feeling.
