Straight Face is a short documentary film created in the experimental style of shadow puppetry. The film is a self portrait, exploring themes of unrequited love, isolation and coming to terms with sexuality. Straight Face is both accompanied by a melancholic composition (performed by accomplished pianist Amy Janelle), and communicated through the abstract style of dramatic poetry. Straight Face was written and created by Holly Stimson (Royal Holloway University of London, Screen Documentary third year student) Follow this link to see my entire portfolio: http://www.ideastap.com/People/hollystimson The musical score, Foreboding Chimes by Amy Janelle, can be purchase at: http://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/foreboding-chimes/id399945759?i=399945767
