The first video of my open video “diary.” I was sitting in my car on my lunch break and felt compelled to just start recording my thoughts. This is real and raw, no filter.

I hope whoever comes across this video and has similar thoughts, feelings and experiences knows that you aren’t alone and that it is ok to feel, but remember you have a purpose and keep pushing forward.

Trust in God always.

This short film centers on the themes of mindfulness and grounding, using the art of editing to bring these concepts to life. The project showcases a variety of cinematic techniques—ranging from diverse shot types and camera angles to intentional cuts, lighting choices, and natural soundscapes. Through careful editing, the film highlights how visual and auditory elements can be harmonized to evoke presence, stillness, and sensory awareness. It serves as both a creative exploration and a meditative experience, illustrating how technical aspects of filmmaking can support emotional and mindful engagement.

Thank you mama (Lavail Jones) for being a part of this project.
