Description

The Native Trees of Stradbroke Island (1964), consisting of four films: Banksia Integrifolia, Casuarina Equisetifolia, Pandanus Pedunculatus and Banksia Serrata (each 6 min, b & w). Music: Nancy Tow. "Born out of our interest in the environment, based on Corinne's training in botany, these were our first essays on landscape. When we refilmed some of this material at Island Fuse in 1971, we were struck by our emphasis on close-ups in this early work, compared to our subsequent landscape films."
