The Black-White Duo Swords

Collaborating with VIVO, we co-created the innovative short film “The Black-White Duo Swords” for the Hangzhou Asian Games, entirely shot using the VIVO X90 Pro+ smartphone.

The film employs a parallel narrative to depict the harmonious yet distinct realms of Eastern and Western swordsmanship through the lens of “mindfulness,” transcending spatial constraints to confront adversaries at the pinnacle, ultimately discovering that true conflict lies within oneself. Visually, the extreme black-and-white space is utilized to showcase the aesthetic features of both Eastern and Western swordsmanship.
