Some of my films link directly to a single specific poem, written by others or by myself. Others are more loosely poetic, using texts found, adapted or extracted from a variety of sources. As a genre, experienced curator Marie Craven describes poetry film (also known as videopoetry) better than I could:

"Videopoetry is a genre of film-making with origins reaching far back into cinema history, especially within the areas of the experimental and 
avant garde. Beyond this, it is a modern manifestation of poetry itself, which began in ancient time as an oral form, and has been adapting and evolving with new technologies ever since." - Marie Craven - Poetry + Video

Many of my films use 'flicker film' technique. I have written about my flicker film technique for PoetryFilm Kanal magazine and you can read full article on their site.
