A Love Letter from Elizabeth Held on Vimeo.


This is a fashion - Doc hybrid thing I put together.  It was one of my first attempts at commercial video let alone commercial styling, controlling models, etc.  The concept came from a mountain of love letters my family and I found while going through my grandparents old home.  I wanted to show them young when their love was blossoming and have an older gentleman's voice reading a letter aloud as if he is reminiscing on old times.  The words are a combination of a few letters written while my grandfather was away at Noter Dame studying Engineering.  The letters range from 1949 - 1952.
