Poetry in Motion
My Senior student thesis film created for my Bachelors of Fine Arts in Film Production degree, Spring 2011.
Best described as a “Dual-Portrait Poetic Documentary,” it explores the relationships involved with my then girlfriend (now wife), her competitive horseback riding, my 90-year-old grandfather, his art, and his love for his late wife.
It was made under the guidance of filmmaker and professor Phil Solomon, at the University of Colorado at Boulder.

He is known for his pioneering work on animal locomotion, which used multiple cameras to capture motion, and his zoopraxiscope, a device for projecting motion pictures that pre-dated the flexible perforated film strip.
