The future of filmmaking and it is beautiful. Can’t wait to see what captures your eyes and thoughts next. Thank you.

[@georgemakesfilm]

You are so kind, thank you! Happy to share new work with you all 🙂

[@shailr]

Beautiful storytelling and cinematography. This video is a lovely reminder that the best equipment is the one we have now.

[@georgemakesfilm]

Thank you! Yes, don’t put boundaries for yourself before you start. Just go out there! 🙏🏻

[@SecretlyADino]

I’ve really been putting off trying to film things because I don’t have a camera yet, this just proved it’s possible to make a stunning film with just a phone and i’m baffled at the quality of this, I love it!

[@georgemakesfilm]

Glad you do! I still remember Casey Neistat saying: “it’s never about the gear!” I wish I had a very expensive camera which would make the shots even more clean, but I just don’t have the money to get it. Go out there and shoot! ✌🏻

[@ShwetaSuryavanshi01]

You have to find beauty in where you are so you can learn to be grateful for the life you’re living.

[@georgemakesfilm]

I 100% agree!

[@lunasophiaaa]

This reminds me that we’re just cute little humans playing on a planet

[@georgemakesfilm]

And that’s what we are, just cute little humans on this gigantic amazing planet!

[@Zeenyu]

And it is such a beautiful planet, and we are such beautiful creatures ❤

Living a little in Amsterdam before heading back to West Asia to wither and die again. Beautiful film.

[@georgemakesfilm]

You got this man! Also, thank you so much!

[@khalidalali186]

I never thought I’d find love you know. It always seemed like a faraway dream, one that always escapes my grasp somehow. Like a group of people trying to live in a time they don’t belong in, but somehow still romanticize a past they never knew. A nostalgia of introspection brought me to you somehow, and I’m forever grateful and blessed to have watched this video, through that love of mine. The fact that you’re also Dutch, makes it even more special. Great film. Thank you.

[@georgemakesfilm]

@@khalidalali186 These words are very warm and inspirational. Thank you for sharing these with me. I appreciate you and take care man 🙏🏻

Wow, it's one of the most beautiful short films that i ever saw. It's incredible that all of this is filmed by an Iphone. Like someone said "it's not about the gear, it's about the passion". (Sorry if bad english)

[@georgemakesfilm]

Wow thank you!! I believe this is so true. I think it’s all about trying to develop an eye for stories around you. And, yes currently I don’t possess an expensive cinema camera solely for filming (I whish though 😂), but that shouldn’t get in your way!
