Romsey War Horse

Romsey War Horse

Vidibiz are working with Amy Goodman, the sculptor, and the Romsey War Horse memorial committee to record an archive of the evolution of the memorial statue being created as a lasting memorial to the animals and soldiers who gave their lives during the Great War. We have filmed and photographed the work of Amy Goodman, the sculptor, as she has created the life size sculpture of the horse and trooper.

We are filming the various events and “talks” relating to the project with the intention of producing a DVD and maybe an eBook during the summer of 2015.
