Moss
2019. Video, 1000s of photographs
Poem: by Natalie Whittaker - published in 'Shadow Dogs' by Ignition Press
Produced for the Oxford Brookes Poetry Film Competition
Moss won third prize. The judges comments:
"Jane Glennie’s interpretation really caught the elemental, vivid and unsettling nature of the poem. Brilliantly edited in a way that captured the organic growth of the images in the piece and with a truly evocative soundscape, Jane’s poetryfilm expressed so much in such a relatively short film - rather like the poem itself!"
Of the film of her poem, poet Natalie Whittaker said:
"‘I love the close-up, claustrophobic use of texture in this film - you can almost feel the moss growing over you, and into your eyes. I also love the attention to details on the soundtrack, such as the teaspoon. The rapid onslaught of images and textures creates a feeling of anxiety and panic, which suits the poem perfectly - it's fantastic."
