SEA 404
Taking inspiration from Japanese photographer Hiroshi Sugimoto and French philosopher Jean Baudrillard, "SEA 404" questions the current fashion where people learn everything in the computer world.
Wood and Metal Bars
A meditative journey through colour, form and sound. This direct animation music video was created for Toronto chamber music composer Frank Horvat. The musical composition is performed by Canadian percussionist Beverley Johnston.
Kopierwerk
The cinema is a machine. "Kopierwerk" testifies to that, lets itself be carried by industrial rhythms, and in doing so, negotiates the analogue era, whose end meant also new beginnings, creative deviations: as complement to digital mass culture, taking place before our eyes is a movement largely freed from the pressure to generate a profit, a niche revolution of sorts in analogue media.
Wash Day
An intimate exploration into how private, domestic acts such as washing your hair, or putting on makeup become a significant re-acquaintance with the body, before and after navigating the politics of one’s outward appearance.
Marsh Island
A portrait of an island on the edge of Union Bay in Seattle. An uneasy, but ever-evolving juxtaposition of the human and the natural; the hard thrum of the highway and swirling churn of the wetland.
In and Out a Window
Our front window from inside and out.
Floral Yearnings
An in-depth reflection on beauty.
Analog Nostalgia
During the coronavirus lockdown, Seattle filmmaker Serge Gregory rummages through his work to create an ode to the lost art of shooting, editing and projecting film.
Of This Beguiling Membrane
The story unfolds on the Eve of Midsummer: on the day when the threshold between worlds is porous, and an idle gesture can tempt fate.

Why shoot film? These filmmakers celebrate the unique characteristics of the medium, in a range of techniques and styles.
