Early experiments in portraiture, made while Tait was studying in Rome. Portraits of Claudia Donzelli, Saulat Rahman and Fernando Birri. Birri also credited with continuity.
I like the idea of making a film equivalent of portrait painting. I did 3Ps of 3 of my friends in Rome and the next year, home in Orkney, I made a portrait of my mother. […] I was trying for a sort of formality – a juxtaposition of images related to colour, composition, movement.
