Focus Craftership

Focus Craftership - Cooperage
FV_05

For the ‘Focus Craftership’ project, Feathers on Wings was responsible for the filming, production, post-production, and storytelling, crafting a compelling audiovisual narrative that brings intangible cultural heritage to life. This multi-year initiative (2021-2024), supported by the Flemish Government, developed methodologies and tools to document, share, and activate craftsmanship in Flanders, showcasing traditional skills in a modern and engaging way.

Through visual storytelling, cinematography, and editing, I created a series of long-form productions that highlight the depth and importance of craftsmanship, making complex traditions accessible to a broad audience. The blend of authentic documentary-style footage with cinematic quality and clear narrative structure resulted in impactful visual productions that resonate with both specialists and the general public.

Focus Craftership was a collaborative project initiated by Bokrijk | Craftsmanship & Heritage in cooperation with CEMPER, Centre for Agrarian History (CAG), ETWIE, FARO, Histories, PARCUM and Workshop intangible heritage, with the support of the Flemish Government.
