Orient Express by Wong Fu Productions

Orient Express by Wong Fu Productions
As part of the Interpretations Film Initiative, Wong Fu Production created the short film Orient Express. They were given a script with 4 lines and had to create a short no longer than 3 minutes. After watching this short, you’d think it was a companion piece to a David Choi music video like Won’t Even Start or That Girl.

Also part of Interpretations, check out Far East Futura. It’s the same script, but a different concept for the video.
