The Woodworker - Documentary

I wrote, directed, filmed, and edited this piece, hope you can enjoy it.

An award winning short documentary on local craftsman Richard Stimson, a woodworker for most of his life, who loves the joy of designing then creating furniture and ornaments.

Discover how he originally got into the craft, discussing his previous work and watch his process from initial thoughts all the way to a completed piece of art.

This film is aimed at increasing the awareness of the dying art of woodworking to a wider audience.
