“Be Water, My Friend: The Story of Bruce Lee” is the film on Bruce Lee’s life that’s the exciting biographical film his fans have been waiting for. Drawing from over 12 books written by or on Bruce Lee, 22 documentaries and Bruce Lee movies, as well as countless independent interviews and “lost footage,” this short film tribute not only fills the cinematic void for a movie that’s a faithful adaptation of Bruce Lee’s life story, but it entertains audiences along the way. Follow young Jun Fan, (Bruce’s Cantonese name), from his childhood days as a street fighter in Hong Kong beimos and outcast gung fu student in Ip Man’s Wing Chun school, to “The Little Dragon’s” boat-rocking arrival on the US martial arts scene. Discover the insurmountable obstacles Bruce Lee faced as a Hollywood actor that required him to apply everything he learned in martial arts to defeat a system that was rigged against him. And unearth the legendary power Bruce Lee was able to harness that made him the influential icon he is today when he finally learned how to become 100% of what he was determined to be: like water. Oh, and, naturally, this film was made in The Year of the Dragon. *Note: Western martial arts uniforms are sometimes used in place of traditional Wing Chun uniforms as a “creative device.” This is for educational (and, for some, entertainment) purposes only.

A video combining Chimeric Rhapsody versions 1-4 in a 2x2 matrix. The different versions share the same soundtrack, ComfyUI workflow, and mostly share the same After Effects edits, although each segment's content is unique in every edit, in every version. The idea is that the four versions would be played simultaneously in a 4-monitor installation. This combo version previews in one video what the four look like playing together!
