"I'm nervous, not sure if she can tell. For one single arbitary moment I gather enough courage and whisper something in her ear, something i've always known but never told her. Holding my breath only makes my heart beat faster. She looks at me for the first time differently but with the same eyes I fell in love with. She takes my glasses off and then... nothing..."
I've been floored. Absolutely stunning. It feel very blessed to have the opportunity to see the world through the eyes of WongFu. I love how they lead you to some point in the future where you get the chance to formulate your own ending.
Ima Huge Fan of Wesley Chan.... his works... Stupendous and Inspiring!! Also thumbs up to the Actors Chris Dinh and Mimi Chao (I guess I got their names right) :)
i love that you guys can create something out of a single moment. a single thought becomes an incredible work of art. where someone like me, who clicks on a box that pops up on her screen, is stopped, 6 min & 16 sec later with a twist in her heart and the knowledge of how beautiful a moment can be if you give it a chance
I CANT BELIEVE I AM ONLY WATCHING THIS NOWWW???! i Love all things wongfu! this was very dreamy. I liked it. I Love how you can tell who was behind the videos you guys do hehe
I can't believe I just watched this now...Wesley you have a power with words...you have this amazing skill of showing your viewers a different perspective on things and it totally blows me away. =D
notice: in the title sequence at :15 ... she turns on the faucet (sound of the ocean)... and then the title appears (the shell) .. took me a while to get that one. such a great piece!
ever had those moments where you doubt it's real and you can only think of it as a dream, when your actually touching lips to lips and you can't believe it's actually happening?
This doesn't even belong to Youtube, it belongs in a theatre and millions of people should see this! Or maybe it belongs to Youtube and is a proof that you CAN find high-qualitity work on an internet-platform like Youtube!
id want to be in an epic battle with super powers xD (real would be cooler but mroe dangerous) i wouldnt really want a 'fake memory' tho i prefer to kno wats real even if it sucks, like u know when ur parent or somone tells u a little story about how i remember when u were little u used to... and u of course dont remember it, and wat eneds up happening is u looks back on it and think was that a memory or was it a visualisasion of wat someone told me?
I had a dream about this yesterday. It had the exact same scenes where they are under the tree except it was me and a boy I really like. It seemed so real, I thought it was just a memory until I just found this short film. I guess this film was re-created in my dream. There were no voice overs like this. Just songs in the background and faint laughs. Everything felt so real, but It turns out, I dreamed what I thought was reality.
Before the credits shows up you can instantly tell if it was written by Wes. It’s always so complicated and sometimes hard to swallow but at the same time deep, emotive and meaningful.
I’m glad I’ve found WongFu by accident. Your unconventional thoughts and ideas are really inspiring and I think that’s why you guys are so successful. As long as you’ll keep this attitude you’ll be exceptional. Wishing you endless inspiration :)
I have actually thought about and discussed this before, and I said the same thing as the girl did: If you only have the memory, that's not enough. Memorys always make me crave really living the moment for the first time again. Like a shadow when you want to see the real person.
so I was watching the series numb3rs over netflix... episode 20 of season 3.. and who pops out into the scene as a student of CalSci? yes... Chris... and I went FFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
I believe they use a Canon Powershot SX series like the SX 20 30 or 40 types. In one of their videos you get to see a close up of the camera. I hope this helps.
I don't want to be a douche, but the aforementioned concept of "remembering" something that didn't happen was not at all explored in this piece. Imagining a fantasy a memory does not make. A relationship resolved by the telling of a fantasy is linear, it progresses after the fantasy, and cannot therefore be a memory.
:') thats was freaking beautiful. You guys are amazing directors, script makers, actors and everything else you guys do for little masterpieces like this. 3
this is really touching.. i never thought there are people, i would say wesley, could have the same perspective in life like me as shown in the film and the description.... because for me not all in reality can make you happy or can give you this feeling thru an experience.. the rest are beyond reality.... <3 i just love this video... this made my day... thank you wesley....
I don't understand why this movie doesn't have more views. The cinematography was of course amazing, I love the simple clarity with which you delivered the contrast in color and urban/pastoral setting. The only things I would consider lacking are how the lines were delivered. I think acting in WongFu Productions has come a long way, and perhaps my expectations are misplaced, but more apt control of pauses and inflection would have truly given 'Shell' the finishing touch in making it a jewel.
@Tracy7173 I kind of agree with you, like it stumped me for a while because it was such a simple idea yet it was presented in such a roundabout way...still visually wonderful tho *3*
If only Wes wrote my life. It would be inspirational and romantic c:
