Video Production
With easy access to so many digital tools, it’s exciting to explore this new media. Presented at recent exhibitions, these visuals give me the opportunity to beautifully connect my cut paper works, micrographs and videos into a single art statement. Here is my newest 16 minute video:

1. Creative Exploration. This movie was created to accompany my artist talk set for April 12, 2025, 11am-12:30 pm, at LeMoyne Arts in Tallahassee. It focuses on inspiration and a creative collaboration between the staffs at LeMoyne Arts and Apalachicola National Estuarine Research Reserve. Grateful acknowledgement goes to Jody Thomas who composed and performed the music for this project.

2. 2019: Inspired by a Drop of Water:
It’s exciting to share this five minute “short” I created for this year’s “Filmfest” presented at the annual National Estuarine Research Reserve Association’s (NERRA) conference. My mini film received the “Ctenophore Award for Special Effects” so in Oscar Night style, I send my thanks and gratitude to many, especially my songwriting friend, Jody Thomas, for lending me his own music which makes this tiny film sparkle.Read More...

Once a year, this organization convenes; this time in Charleston. To help celebrate these gatekeepers who monitor our coastlines and our own local NERR, I responded to their call for film entries. As they state, “The National Estuarine Research Reserve System is a network of 29 estuarine areas—places where freshwater from the land mixes with saltwater from the sea—established across the nation for long-term research, education, and coastal stewardship.” Hope you enjoy this micro film.

3. 2019: A Micro Short Film by Beth Appleton
This is my first Micro Short Film! It’s a two minute experimental piece about the making of the cut paper assemblage I just finished this week titled “Sunfish.” Learning to play with the photographic timelapse feature was creative fun and it’s now my pleasure to share.
