Pietro Simone: 'Gua Sha Balcony Reel'
Title: 'Pietro Simone: Gua Sha Balcony Reel'
Role: Director, Cinematographer, Editor
Year: 2021
​
As the videographer of this project, I worked closely with Pietro Simone and his team. He expressed how he wants to be able to interact with his audience and create consistent content for them to indulge in. As TikTok, Instagram reels and other forms of short content are prominent, we pushed forward with creating short videos to present Pietro's different techniques, and demonstrate to his audiences at home how to perform them.
​
Pietro talked about his obsession with the Chinese medical practice 'Gua Sha'. From his extensive research about the benefits, it can bring to the skin, he believes that this is able to reflect a healthy lifestyle.
​
This video demonstrates Pietro Simone's adaptation of the Hanyo'u method of Gua Sha. He chose to instead film on the balcony of his apartment as it brings a more lively and 'fresh' environment, which he is trying to reflect with the Gua Sha method as he said it is 'refreshes' the skin.
