Director Biography - Amber Word (a. word)

First time filmmaker, a. word, has a mind consistently filled with abstract imagery. What started out as a passion for mixed media conceptual art moved into collaged experimental art film when she saw what was possible on an iPhone due to Moment’s Kickstarter campaign years ago. When they announced their 2021 Invitational Film Fest, she knew it was time to take the plunge. “Fear Embodied” was her first ever film and was shot and edited entirely on an iPhone.

Director Statement

“Fear Embodied” is about stripping back the building blocks of duality. It’s about questioning our judgments. And our motivations. Each day recognizing that the dichotomous world we live in is one of our own creation, and a storyline we have the power to shift with accountability and trust.
