Part I

Every frame is an act of noticing.
There’s a certain beauty in observation when you’re far from home — the way a street corner looks unfamiliar, the way light becomes heavier in the afternoon.

This is Part I of the ongoing travel series, a continuation of the quiet tone set in A Prologue Abroad.
There’s no rush to arrive anywhere — only to see, to listen, and to move through the world without trying to define it too quickly.

Shot on iPhone and Moment

All footage was shot on iPhone using Moment lenses, a combination that always reminds me that what matters most isn’t the tool, but the intention behind it.
The small frame of the phone creates a kind of intimacy — you film closer, think slower, and edit with more care.

Each scene was constructed around the idea of stillness within motion: trains, reflections, passing faces — everything existing just long enough to be remembered.

A Study in Movement

In this part, there’s an exploration of how travel changes rhythm — how every sound, every footstep, and every silence carries weight.
It’s less about where I was, and more about what the movement did to my perception.

Sometimes the frame becomes a diary. Sometimes it becomes a pause.

Part I marks the real beginning —

 the moment when documentation becomes interpretation.
A journey made of fragments, stitched together by instinct, and filmed through glass, light, and time.
