SOUND EDITOR / DESIGNER / MIXER FOR VISUAL ALBUM - SHORT FILM
Based on a true story, LINE OF LIFE is an experimental short film about one man’s journey through the uncertainty of a cancer diagnosis.
Through the film, our lead character builds a machine in an attempt to cure his cancer. This machine takes him through time, visiting both his 5-year-old self and his 75-year-old self.
This is a visual poem that blurs dream and reality. It dissects the resilient nature of human life and further explores the concept of death through movement, performance, and poetry
