I caught myself smiling while watching this. The music, the performance, and the camera work/editing all came together very well. Your locations were diverse yet appropriate. Tito's performance was very graceful and impressive with a ballerina-like style. Similarly, the music was tasteful and blended with the timing of the talent artfully. Thank you for the smile and an excellent showcase! I love these behind the scenes takes.

Just saw some of your work on TKOR and came to check you out and see what you do. Wow!! I was not disappointed. The artistry of the performers and the film crew blend together in a beautiful choreography to give stunning visuals and a feeling of awe as the staff became like an extension of his body. This is truly mesmerising! I am so happy that there are many more videos to watch as I enjoy my way through your work.

Suggestion: Maybe upload your vids in 1440p or even 4k. 1080p doesn't do that final shot at the temple justice. I wanted to get just mesmerized by its beauty with high fidelity. Amazing video otherwise, to both you guys and the performer! :)

[@JulianKostuik]

Kuma Films Could it be something like extra content that we would not usually see on the main? Like vlogging, behind, behind the scenes, extra slow motion clips, quite possibly a video of editing and how you do it? I’m sure there are many things to list but I cannot think of it at this moment in time. Awesome video by the way. I got a great laugh at a few parts. Can’t wait to see more.
