What do you think of my new video for THE FALCON, THE WOLF AND THE HUMMINGBIRD?
I love the rain and couldn't resist making a video that captures the foreboding of the quiet, constant downpour that follows the raging storm in which war breaks out between Pino's tribe, the Manatuck, and that of the stronger, fiercer tribe, the Pagassett.
The scouting party runs south through the steady rain, their strides silent in the forest of tall oaks. The sun rose not long ago behind a blanket of clouds, creating an iridescent pearl light. The light chip-chip of a single warbler breaks the constant tapping of raindrops on light green spring leaves. The last in line, Pino runs behind Tow, her body shaking, both from the cooling after-storm air and possible realities she might soon confront.
