Moving Images
Our Approach
Film practices are a journey into perception, focusing on visual storytelling as a form of personal expression rather than professional filmmaking. Instead of technical instruction or production goals, we invite you to slow down, observe with intention, and find meaning in the everyday.
Frederick Paxton is an award-winning filmmaker and photographer whose visual work explores conflict, daily life, and the subtle layers of human experience. With a background bridging fine art, large-scale commissioned work and feature films, he blends professional depth with emotional clarity.
As an educational leader, Frederick brings a grounded, intuitive approach to visual storytelling. His teaching encourages you to observe the world around you with empathy, notice what often goes unseen and express your perspective with confidence and care.
