Forms I

The first in a series of award-winning, experimental films devised by London-based creative sound studio Mount Audio, created in collaboration with photographer Stephen Lenthall.

Forms I explores the relationship between space, form, light and it’s natural counterpart, shadow. Set within the walls of minimalist paper spaces, the project highlights intricate architechtural details by introducing subtle movements and additional light sweeps.

Mount’s initial piano motif was inspired by the the still imagery of Owen and Stephen's original Shadow Spaces series, which was the basis for this film. This set the pace for the visual, as edited by Peter Mellor of Peepshow Collective. The piece was then re-scored with the help of violinist Mallory Hamm.

Additional sound design elements serve to create a much grander sense of space, with deep bass swells tracking sweeping shadows and glacial string harmonics echoing down seemingly vast hallways. The result is deceiving, a truly immersive journey through seemingly epic spaces.
