Endless Love

Endless Love

Xinqiao is a kind and energetic 8-year-old who always has great smiles. "Endless Love" is a TV series about a pregnant wife and her brain cancer. The cast collaborates with a charity group Dr. Red Nose to sing, read stories, and accompany children with illness. Their efforts hope to bring joy to kids, even though they suffer from physical pains. We made this video in June 2019. Xinqiao could still see everyone’s smile then and laughed with us. By November 2019, her brain tumor had pressured her nerve system and taken her visibility away. She cannot see this beautiful world anymore. We really hope this video can keep some of the great memories in her mind.

The Act

Carter Ciaran is an experienced local theatre actor, whose dreams and ambitions minimize everything else in his personal life.

However, when Carter is preparing for a new lead role as a clown, he receives news that his sister is on her deathbed. The choice Carter ultimately needs to make is to either follow his artistic aspirations or be there for his loved ones in the greatest time of need.

Sore Loser For Love

Sore Loser For Love

The empty space is a clean canvas that allows for a specific tapestry of images to layer within a cinematic mind-space. One could even say - motivated meditation. Set within the subjective framework of the mind and memory, the remnants of love or infatuation are stripped bare within the mindset and passions of the musicians...and even of a girl. Unapologetic message lingers while the expression of distraught emotions simmer just beneath the surface. Perhaps it was a soul-crushing experience or maybe an attempt to heal by addressing the heartbreak head on.

Myth

Myth

In a sleepy town in upstate New York, lonely college student Alex encounters his filmmaking idol JP Smith, the mysterious auteur behind the cult-arthouse sensation “Myth”. Armed with only an outdated 90’s camcorder, JP begins to chronicle Alex’s every move, turning him into the semi-reluctant star of his latest project: a lo-fi, vérité drama in which the plot is unknown to everyone, including Alex himself. What ensues is a series of increasingly chaotic and volatile situations, as Alex vies for control of his own narrative, all under the watchful eye of JP’s camera.
