ChatGPT said: Worlds Beneath Our Hands is a short experimental documentary celebrating scenic painting at West Virginia University. Through color, texture, and hands-on craftsmanship, it follows students as they transform blank canvases into imaginative worlds using only paint, brushes, and creativity. Told without narration, the film immerses viewers in the sensory process—swirling colors, first sketches, and paint rolling across coarse fabric. Their work becomes a metaphor for making: layering ideas, collaborating, and bringing visions to life. The film ends with paint-stained hands and the backdrop rolled away, leaving the impression of worlds built together—by hand.
