🏆 The 15th China Campus Film and Television Festival - Golden Prize
Mountains and Rivers is a video work that documents natural landscapes across China through a combination of aerial footage, time-lapse photography, and location-based observation. Moving across different terrains and atmospheric conditions, the project brings together mountains, rivers, plains, clouds, coastlines, and changing light in order to present the geographic breadth and visual richness of the country. The use of drone perspectives expands the viewer’s sense of scale and spatial relation, while time-lapse sequences reveal the movement of weather, light, and time that often escapes ordinary perception. Grounded in landscape image-making, the work records the diversity, rhythm, and vitality of China’s natural environment, offering a visual experience shaped by cinematic observation and sustained attention to place.
