About

Three short films for David Gardner’s Jewelers, Aggieland’s home for custom jewelry and fine watches: The Sketch, Through the Years and Her Hands. Each is a small glimpse of a moment in life that jewelry marks. There is no voiceover; the pieces and the people who wear them tell the story. Shot on 16mm for warmth and on digital for the sharpness the jewelry deserves, following each piece from the first drawing to the work at the bench.
