In this capacity, I have worked on feature films, TV series, documentaries, print ads, commercials, and corporate films and numerous pioneering video games.\r\u003cbr\u003eExamples of Movies are: Matrix, Most of Robin Williams' films, Kite Runner, Jurassic Park and documentaries including CA State Parks, National Parks, Railroad Museum, Origins; TV Shows:Nash Bridges, America’s Most Wanted.\r\u003cbr\u003e\r\u003cbr\u003eComplete list upon request.\r\u003cbr\u003eI have recently completed a term on the Mill Valley Arts Commission and\r\u003cbr\u003ehave been a volunteer 5th and 6th grade math and reading tutor in Marin City\r\u003cbr\u003efor 8 years.\r\u003cbr\u003eI am the mother of two talented, smart and kind sons. Life partner of an\r\u003cbr\u003eArchitect who is a supportive best friend. Life has not always been easy, but it has turned out well. I will always have to be imagining and creating; it feels as necessary to me as breathing.\r\u003cbr\u003eA lot of my work reflects a desire to spark imagination and foster interest in science, animals, and especially the new frontier, space. I also want to do whatever I can to promote the care and preservation of our planet earth. I have a great time challenging the digital possibilities of making my images a little di!erent. Perhaps the greatest benefit of my work is that it entertains\r\u003cbr\u003eand keeps me out of trouble.\r\u003cbr\u003eART EXHIBITS: COMPLETE DETAILED LIST UPON REQUEST\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eARTIST’S STATEMENT\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eI guess the most important thing about my work is IMAGINATION.\r\u003cbr\u003eIn a lot of my photographs I imagine what this could be or what can I make out of this....Often it is connected with the Universe, which I find beautiful and fascinating so I imagine what it looks like based on space pictures from space cameras.  I also love design and graphics so that factors in a lot of my images.  Mostly I love taking pictures and making something else out of them. I have the most fun imagining and creating images with digital enhancements but never use Ai..never.  Of course, I have straight out of the camera images which I love also.  and...can you tell I am not a writer?\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[],"url":"https:\/\/helloart.com\/fr\/collections\/joeann-edmonds-matthew.oembed","provider":"helloart","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
