Our lives are shaped by our experiences. Our experiences are preserved in our memories. But what if we had a chance to remember things that we never actually experienced? "Shell" explores this idea through a quiet conversation. If you could look through a window that softened the edge between reality and fiction, what would you want to see? What would you want to remember?
This short really touched me. I can relate to the concept of this video. But I can relate to the guy, though - the quiet one, the serious one. This features Chris Dinh (Strangers, Again) and Mimi Chao (When Five Fell). I sort of fell in love with Chris Dinh on this one ;) Hehe. And the ending . . . I felt great after watching this one. I hope you guys will, too. For all the romantics out there . . . :)
Can the things we love, love us back the same? Five household objects express their feelings towards their owner when she begins to neglect them for someone else. "When Five Fell" is a new take on the ideal boy-meets-girl love story. Although the short is told from a unique and unconventional perspective, the emotions described should be familiar to anyone that's fallen in or out of a relationship.
My favorite line is: "But, to know her scent, means something else. It means, we've been close - closer than anyone else." I don't know, but yeah, I really love that line. :P This short film is written and directed by Wesley Chan from Wong Fu Productions, and it features Mimi Chao, William Yu, David Choi, AJ Rafael, Bobby Choy, Paul Dateh and Chris Dinh. I agree that anyone can relate to the emotions the five objects felt in this film. The concept, again, is simple, but because it's Wong Fu, the way it is presented is very unique. And that's why this video caught my attention and praise. Watch in delight another masterpiece from one of the best. :D
I decided to do a Video of the Week kind of segment because I don't get to share any thoughts or my day anymore. Yeah. I feel even more private than usual now. Sorry, blog. :'( But I hope this can make up for it or something. . . .
For my first Video of the Week, I decided to share the video that introduced me to my idol, Wong Fu Productions. It's called "Strangers, Again" featuring Philip Wang and Cathy Nguyen. I love it so much because it looks at relationships in a scientific manner. And when we look back on our previous relationships, we often wish we could undo the things we regret, or do the things we wish we could have done by then. Awwww . . . Thanks to Paolo for making me and Vielka watch this because it opened my eyes to their awesomeness! Watch it and bask in their glory, too! Here it is! Enjoy! :D

You alone should define who you are. Don't let anyone tell you who you should be or what you should do when you what's best for you.
