Edge of Grief

Edge of Grief explores the emotions surrounding the grieving process, personified in a journey through a forest. The film uses stop motion, combining textile-based models with natural materials. The ever-changing yet repetitive emotions are explored along the journey where filmic atmosphere and sound shifts mood. The majority of the film features a large handmade set, with other scenes shot on a multi-plane. I made this film in response to the death of a very close friend and I hope my film can provide a sense of comfort to others experiencing similar feelings.
