His portfolio is a mix of original work and deconstructed found footage from classic films including Akira Kurosawa's Rashomon and Alfred Hitchcock's Vertigo . Here are some stills from his works: Gravity, Suspension, Plot Point, and Papillon D'amour. You can see Papillon D'amour here and his website here.
