If You Are Interested In Hand Crafted Metal Objects,

like a lock box,


 then this is the post for you, I have to say I found the video immensely enjoyable, but first a description,

 Forged and Filed, a transfixing new video by Cambridge, Massachusetts-based filmmaker Jesse Beecher showcases the talents of metalsmith Seth Gould

 in the five minute-long documentary short, Beecher not only highlights the technical prowess of Gould’s complex design and construction skills, but he also transforms the percussive sounds of the metal workshop in to a lively soundtrack,

 Gould graduated in 2009 from Maine College of Art in Portland, Maine with a degree in metalsmithing and jewelry, 

 over the last decade he has shown his work widely and shared his knowledge as a visiting artist and lecturer around the country—most recently at the prestigious Penland School of Crafts in North Carolina,

You can see more of the metalsmith’s works on his Instagram and website, including these creative interpretations of hammers,


                                 
in addition to his personal projects, Beecher works as the Director of Photography for Northern Light Productions, a Boston-based company that creates media for cultural institutions, and has also produced work for PBS, Netflix, and Comedy Central, You can see more of Beecher’s projects on his website, the video for myself is just so watchable.
