It’s a Nike project about yoga. This project is the first time Nike released yoga products in China so we should do something special for this collection so we chose to film a documentary to tell people Nike yoga’s slogan. We found people from our followers and invited them to act in the documentary. These people have different yoga experiences. I really like this project because those people told us/shared a story about themselves. At the beginning, I need to propose this whole idea and I need to make sure this project keeps going and after that, I need to edit this video and article.

When I was a little kid, I wanted to work in a store and clean and fold clothes because every time I went to a clothes shop, I saw people folding clothes and it looks very neat.  When every colour and every size is folded neatly, it’s very colourful and makes me feel peaceful. I thought if I saw everything folded neatly, I would feel peaceful. My mind changed during university because I need to live by myself.
