Ice videos
Tabitha began making ice art animations while on her study international exchange in Australia. While brushing her teeth an idea brewed one morning, she rushed over to the art studio, grabbed some silicone and mixer, and made a mold for a toothbrush, poured water in once it was set and stuck down to a piece of wood, and set the toothbrush to set in the freezer. Later, she popped the delicate toothbrush ice mold ould out and set it on a table and set to film the melting moment before her very eyes. Her ice series was born.
Her second ice melting experience with filming arose when she arrived back in the UK, visited her photography studio and photographer Joseph Emilien and asked for support to film a melting block of ice with a pewter pot frozen inside of it.
Tabitha set up the block of ice in a tray, and Joseph supported to set up the tripod and camera tripping every 10 seconds to capture a single detailed photograph. After 8 hours, Tabitha had a series of hundreds of images which she set into motion to create a detailed video - a part of her final degree show.
