Our Frames Mean Love is a Our Flag Means Death Frame Project (MAP) run by emcolbs & cait

Our Frames Mean Love is a large scale collaborative project that has brought together artists from across the fandom to create one grand animation.

We had 256 artists recreate 310 frames of the kiss Ed and Stede share in Season 1 of Our Flag Means Death. Their kiss holds major significance to all of us and is a groundbreaking moment in television history. There are a wide variety of mediums featured throughout this project, a few of those being paints, digital, knit, embroidery, paper, perler beads, fabric, and so many more. Each frame is a work of art and a labor of love by a single artist, and when all frames are put together in order they form a full animation of the kiss.

This project is a love letter to everyone who has made this show possible: the writers, crew, cast, and of course, David Jenkins himself. Our Frames Mean Love is a gift to express our appreciation to this momentous show, whose humor and storytelling has made us all feel a little more seen.
