The Exhilaration was my prelude to filmmaking; a dance video infused with running, parkour, and stunts I had never dared to try before. It was also my first experiment with cinematic color grading, a feature I had just integrated into my editing software. Though far from flawless, it marked the start of a much larger creative journey. Countless hours of shooting and editing went into this short piece, driven purely by passion, resourcefulness, and a hunger to learn by doing. While it may lack the polish of high-end productions, it gave me the push I needed to dream bigger and ultimately led me to begin shooting my first action short film, The Clash.
