[edit] Information

Handmade is filmed without voiceover or music so the focus is entirely on the craft process.

[edit] Glass

Filmed portrait of the making of a simple glass jug. Filmed in real time and without voiceover or music, the film's focus is entirely on the craft process, an absorbing, repetitive process of blowing and rolling as glass designer Michael Ruh delicately teases and manipulates the molten glass into shape.

[edit] Metal

The film is an absorbing portrait of the complex processes behind the making of the knife. Forged in a spectacular industrial space, bladesmith Owen Bush uses a combination of modern and traditional techniques, some of which date to ancient times.

[edit] Wood

Film of the slow and painstaking process of making a classic Windsor chair. A beautifully simple object, it is in fact anything but. Filmed over five days, the film reveals the complex, time-consuming processes involved in creating the chair, made by Jim Steele in his Warwickshire workshop.
