幻境綺想 | Story Unbridled 2017
幻境綺想是由中華電信MOD所贊助拍攝，由Vincent Kuan Lin編導。故事本身相當龐大，在十分鐘的短片中，所需要拍攝到的場景跨及城市、森林、海邊與酒館，同時，為了營造出影片中夢境的奇幻感，更選擇在加拿大溫哥華進行取景拍攝。此製作展現了導演想要述說一個龐大複雜故事的企圖心，更表現了他試圖嘗試不同挑戰的實驗精神。
Synopsis
文杰又一次陷入了他的夢境，在一個憂鬱的酒館中觀察形形色色的人，但最重要的目的是要見到瑞秋，一個只在夢中相見的女孩；見面多次，互相追逐，卻對對方一無所知，他們的交談總是被突如其來的事件打岔。這次也不例外，酒館突如其來一片混亂。然而，混亂中讓憂鬱的酒館熱絡起來，狂歡中為文杰與瑞秋設下一個最好的互動機會。
Jie has again fallen into an awkward dream where he discovers people’s obsessions. He is here for Rachel though, a girl who appears in his dreams. Although Jie has met her in different dreams, the two have never had an actual conversation. However, this special occasion at the tavern gets them together again and coincidentally animates the gloomy tavern with a carnival-like dancing blast that liberates the minds of the depressed crowd.
導演的話
通常不演戲的我，當觀眾看到了我出現在鏡頭前，很自然的把這個影片當成了我的故事。但是並不是這樣的；這是一個我們的故事，是生活在這片土地上面對自己期望的故事。
夢想、熱誠和現實，在我們成長的路上，似乎這些價值都越來越互相矛盾。我們期盼我們周遭的事物一且順遂完美，但是卻也是如此更害怕失敗。如果我們願意擁抱了我們週遭一切的元素，接受不完美的可能性，或許這是勇氣的表現吧! 希望看到這部短片的大家，能夠看到綺想不是個美麗的幻境，在現實中的不完美可以創造出更美好的可能性。
When people see me as an actor in this film, they often think this is a story of me. It is not true though. The story is about us, especially the people live in Taiwan.
Dream, passion for life, and the reality we live in, when we grow older, these things seem to contradict each other more, and our life become awkward. Aiming for perfection makes us even afraid more of failure. What if we accept the environs we are in and embrace all possibilities? Is this a move with courage? This is a film about how we learn to unbridle ourselves and gain the courage again.
