In Plain Air
Miranda Bellamy | Film
Overview
Since 2015, I've been creating a short documentary film about my mum, Pauline Bellamy. It celebrates and shares the magic of her painting, set within the incredible landscapes of the Otago region. Filming is now complete, and with your support we will bring it to the big screen.
Throughout the process of making this film, I've been inspired by Mum's adventurous spirit, her insatiable drive to create, and her generosity in sharing what being an artist means to her.
With the assistance of skilled camera operator Iain Frengley, I have chipped away at realising this passion project whenever I have been back home in Dunedin.
We have captured some wonderful material. From painting through the ice and snow in a wintery Central Otago, to savouring the calm mid-summer Otago Harbour, we have it all.
It's now time for the final phase of the filmmaking process, post-production. Editor Thomas Gleeson and I will work through hours and hours of footage to bring the final film into shape while Jack Northover masterfully composes an original soundtrack.
With your help, we can raise the $3500 that will allow this film to shine.
If we meet this target, I'll share it between the talented professionals that have committed their support to completing this project, and cover some of the costs of submitting the final film into film festivals around the world.
I'm really excited to sit in a cinema and watch the curtains draw on this project with you all.

ABOUT ME
I'm an artist and filmmaker originally from Dunedin, NZ. I am forever compelled to embark on creative projects that come in many shapes and sizes.
My interdisciplinary work embraces vulnerability, takes risks and continually experiments. It has travelled around the world, with me in tow.
I am so grateful to have carried this slice of home with me for the past few years, and can't wait to bring this project to life in 2019.
