WHAT DO PEOPLE THINK? — still

The Idea

The weight of being seen

A cinematic short built around the question “what do people think?” — exploring social perception, judgment, and how much of what we do is shaped by what we imagine others think of us. Shown as a working draft.

Draft 3

Shown as work-in-progress, on purpose

I’d rather show the thinking in progress than wait for a false sense of finished.

Reflection

Reflection

This piece sits with a question I keep circling back to: how much of what we do is shaped by what we imagine other people think of us. Shooting it as a cinematic short let me externalize that anxiety into image and rhythm rather than dialogue. Calling it a “draft” is honest — it’s a working version of an idea I’m still pressure-testing, and I’d rather show the thinking in progress than wait for a false sense of finished.
