Heaven & Hell
In this film, I’ve sought to create a multi-sensory audit of a world in collapse, bridging the widening chasm between political hypocrisy and our fractured social reality. By centering the film on the recurring motif of a fraying flag, I wanted to expose the terrifying fragility of democracy as it buckles under the weight of human greed. I chose to set this human turmoil against the indifferent majesty of nature—where falling snow and rising oceans serve as a silent witness to our choices. Complemented by Veryan’s haunting soundscape and Liz Helman’s narration, the work stands as a cinematic elegy for the marginalized. Ultimately, it is a poetic reminder that while the powerful debate our future, the heaviest burden is always borne by those least responsible for the crisis.

LIN ZHENGYU：TEAR AND FIRE
Tears and Fire is an animated short film adapted from the folk myths and legends of the Hakka communities in southern Jiangxi (Ganzhou region). The project draws on long-standing local oral traditions centered on Lin Xian Erlang—Lin Zhengyu. From a young age, Lin Xian Erlang studied Daoist practices in the mountains and returned to his village to protect the people using his spiritual powers. However, in the course of avenging his enemies, he tragically lost his young children and ultimately his own life. When his village was threatened, he used his final strength to defend it, eventually ascending a guardian deity. The creators conducted extensive field research, genealogical studies, and oral history collection to reinterpret traditional narratives in a contemporary context. Parts of the production also employed Artificial Intelligence Generated Content (AIGC) techniques.The project explores innovative expressions of local cultural resources within animation, filling a gap in the representation of Hakka culture in this medium. The film has received support and attention from institutions such as the Longnan Hakka and Yangming Culture Research Center and the Zhengyu Temple Council in Chenglong Town, Longnan City, Jiangxi Province. The narrative revolves around themes of fate and personal choice, portraying Lin Zhengyu’s journey as he protects his people, unintentionally killed his adopted son, and ultimately transcends to divinity. Visually, the film blends Hakka architecture and traditional clothing with Chinese artistic forms such as ink painting, paper-cutting, and shadow puppetry. In its sound design, it incorporates Hakka dialects and mountain songs, creating a distinct regional cultural identity and an Eastern aesthetic.

Memories of the Future
"Memories of the Future" is a cinematic reflection on the growing crisis of space debris, blending science, metaphor, and artistic abstraction. The film is presented from the perspective of a child—a future Earthling—who looks back at humanity’s actions with both wonder and concern. This perspective shapes the visual style: everything is slightly exaggerated, much like a child’s drawing, but rendered in a futuristic way. The satellites appear oversized, the debris fields impossibly dense, and the vastness of space feels surreal. It is a new era of storytelling, where scientific reality meets the boundless imagination of a child. At the heart of the film is a seemingly insignificant object—a single bolt. It drifts through space, small and unassuming against the backdrop of immense orbital structures. But its presence is deceptive. The bolt represents overlooked dangers, a silent consequence of human negligence. As it moves through the cosmos, it ultimately cracks a camera lens, distorting the view—a metaphorical warning that ignoring a problem does not make it disappear. Like a tiny mistake that spirals into disaster, the bolt embodies the unintended consequences of human actions. The film’s aesthetic is deeply influenced by classical opera and ballet, using Ludwig van Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7, 2nd Movement to transform the slow-motion collision of debris into a haunting "space ballet." The choice of music elevates the visuals, creating a dreamlike yet unsettling atmosphere where beauty and destruction coexist. By incorporating real audio recordings—Sputnik 1’s signal, abstract radio transmissions, and Earth's magnetic field sounds—the film merges fiction with reality, grounding its imaginative visuals in scientific authenticity. The child’s voice, generated artificially, adds an emotional layer, as if the future is speaking directly to the past.

The Last Conversation
The film presents to us a single conversation within which several crucial elements are invoked. A friendship that has lasted twenty-four years, international security matters and secrets, and the confession about a person’s identity to his friend, all of them are brought to life within it. As matters come to a head, there is the endeavor to finally offer a moment of high tension as the film's climax. The final result exhibits potential in weaving a story and plot, one that should definitely be explored further. ‘The Last Conversation’, thus becomes a seminal and important first step in that direction.

Illusory Truth
In a world where future technologies have seamlessly merged with humanity, the boundaries between reality and illusion dissolve. Humans traverse diverse realms, experiencing ever-changing forms of existence as they shift between perceived "reality" and virtual simulations. Yet, unbeknownst to them, even their so-called "real" world may itself be a fabricated construct. From the enigmatic appearance of a crow at the story’s inception to its watchful gaze in the finale, every layer of existence unfolds under its surveillance. This mystical creature symbolises the possibility that both our tangible world and virtual dimensions exist within a higher-dimensional reality—a realm beyond human comprehension. Metaphor In virtual realms, we can become anyone we aspire to be. We are protagonists across infinite worlds, transcending limitations through metamorphosis. If we perceive the virtual as real, it becomes our reality; if we anchor ourselves in the tangible, it solidifies as truth. Every illusion holds truth, and every truth carries illusion. All that is imagined manifests as real, while the "real" dissolves into the ephemeral.

Le Sniper
The critically acclaimed 2012 French short film Le Sniper is a dialogue-free, 4-minute thriller directed by Yoann Garel. It follows a music-loving hitman who positions himself on a Parisian rooftop to wait for his target and passes the time by using his scope to voyeuristically observe the residents of the building across the street. The film gained notoriety for its brilliant editing, claustrophobic POV shots, and unexpected, musical plot twist. Rather than a standard action or war movie, the short leans heavily into drama and suspense, contrasting the cold nature of the sniper's weapon with the passionate, intimate lives he spies through his rifle's lens.
