Directing Change

Nature is my Anchor

Tags: Monthly Prompt
Film Description:

When I considered my anchor during tough times, I came to a conclusion stemming from my love of nature. Whenever I feel the walls closing in, or times get tough, I return to nature as a release for the tensions that take hold of me. When creating this piece, I imagined the stress dissolving with the touch of fresh air. The stressed girl, on her blank canvas, lets her pressures fade in the wind.
