Why We Train — A Short Film Teaser

When charged with creating a visual narrative of something of great import to me, but otherwise rarely articulated to others, my mind instantly thought of what I showcase a lot on here at Dribbble: my love of gung fu.

Creating a short documentary-style teaser to expound upon the history of this cultural art I’ve made an integral part of my life, I hint at the fact that I view martial arts as a manifestation of cultural and heritage design.

Thank you to my cinematographer, Arvil Prewitt, for working with a picky director and for beautifully capturing a vision.
