BBC Radio 4's 'A British History in Weather' series
Wind Knots and British Folklore 2016
I collaborated with my sister, Victoria to co-direct and animate a piece for the BBC Radio 4, Weather series ('British History in Weather series) in 2016. We based our animation on the old folklore of Wind knots. The folklore tells of Witches that would collect the wind into three knots. They would then sell the knots to sailors. The sailors would use the wind to help them sail. When the first knot was untied, it would set a breeze upon them, untie the second, a gust and untie the third a tempest.
