THROUGH MY EYES: Malaysia

Short Film - 2025
A short travel documentary I filmed during a family trip. What started as casual shooting turned into a polished piece capturing the beauty, culture, and emotion of Malaysia through a deeply personal lens. I worked as the Director, Cinematographer, Editor, and Colorist, handling everything from shooting to final delivery. Shot on the Sony FX30, it screened at TIFF Lightbox in June 2025 and won Best Documentary Short and Best Trailer at the New Jersey Film Awards.
