I Created My First Short Film

I Created My First Short Film

A screenshot from the short film.

So I’m trying out storytelling and making short cinematic films for the first time. I fell in love with this style, so I thought it would be fun to try making something myself.

It takes a lot of time and effort, but I think the result is worth it.

And you know what’s funny?

I made and edited this video entirely on my phone. The application is called CapCut. There’s also a web-version and desktop version available, but I’m not allowed to run that on my work laptop — and that’s the only one I currently have.

“What will your next chapter be?” is the start of a series where I want to convey a message that empowers you with strength, insight, and the realization that we can determine our own next chapter.

Of course, I want to convey that message in the most awesome possible way.

From every ending, I want to create a new beginning, so keep watching! Eventually, it will all come together as a bigger picture when we bring everything together.

Just keep in mind that I’m just trying things out! I’m no expert, just a hobbyist. But I find it incredibly fun and interesting to do.

I have no clue how many parts this series will contain. This is more a “create as we go” type of project, not prepared or scripted beforehand. Just letting the creativity flow!

Let me know what you think.
