A DJI collaboration project, a small-scale advertisement short film project. I was responsible for all aspects besides acting and voice-ove. The theme is to highlight the compact, user-friendly, and portable nature of the DJI Mini 3 drone, adding a sense of happiness to life.

In this short film project, I was responsible for all the cinematography and colour grading. It was a challenging project with entirely outdoor shoots, which demanded a high level of expertise in cinematography.

An 11-minute (estimated) psychological drama film about the modern day crisis of information overload, male loneliness, depression and misogyny, all into one.

In this short film, I was responsible for all aspects of cinematography, lighting, color grading, and some editing and directing. It was a one-person show, so to direct the audience's attention more towards the protagonist, I opted for a setup using Vintage lenses with an Anamorphic Adapter, specifically the Helios 44-2 paired with the Blazar Nero 1.5x Anamorphic Adapter.
