My videos, which I call Snap Motion Re-Animations, are made from common snapshots taken of time based-events like a sunset or a single object like a snowball.  By collecting enough of images of any one thing, I can place them in an order to re-invent or re-animate life.  

The photographs that are included in each Snap Motion Re-Animation come from around the world and are taken by different photographers.  I collect them from friends, family, colleagues, acquaintances, strangers, stock photography agencies, photo exchanges, thrift stores,  private collections, want adds, eBay and the public domain archives of the US Army, NOAA and NASA.
