- Jian Wei is a 17-year-old lion dancer born and raised in Chinatown, New York. He gives us an inside look into the world of Lion Dancing and what it takes to be a part of this centuries-old tradition.
Limelight is a documentary series that follows the unique lives of different New Yorkers. The goal is to tell unheard stories from around the city that will widen our perspectives and make us look at the world differently.
This channel is the creation of 24-year-old documentary filmmaker, Josh Charow. All films are made by myself and a small crew of wonderful friends willing to lend a hand on these projects. Your viewership and support make this channel possible and fuel me to continue getting out there and keep telling these stories. Every like, comment, subscription, and share means the world. Thank you.

Your cinematic story telling is next level. Definitely deserve more attention!
Thanks so much! Hope you enjoyed this one
@@Limelightdocs Thanks for the time and effort you put into these videos, I know it isn't easy. I patiently wait for your uploads. Keep up the amazing work.
Also to Jian Wei: Good luck with college, dude. You'll learn loads even if you're not in a classroom. Keep growing, keep going.
Loved it! I don't know enough about cinematography to know what I'm talking about, but I really like in your films how everything around the edges feels soft and cozy, like you're an observer actually there instead of watching a pristine record after the fact.
Thanks so much Adam! I used some vintage lenses on this one that give the film some of those characteristics
I'm really glad that I stumbled upon your TH-cam short on the New Year Confetti in Times Square. I don't know why but your videos had this way of capturing the real emotions of everyday people and a way to document all that they've been through.
They had me yearning for more as I felt this urge to watch every piece of documentary you had created from ground up.. Somehow it felt as if I've connected with their lives and their memories and that I was a friend who was watching along the sidelines.
I wish you all the very best. These documentaries that you create have lasted an impact on me and the way I perceive life and wish to live it.
Personally, I Thank You for your work.

Thank you Margot!
So beautiful!! LimeLight > any youtube channel out there fr
Amazing quality!
I saw Lion Dancers in both Chinatown Hawaii, and Chinatown San Francisco...I love them...I like the Hawaiian ones better, because you "fed" the lion your dollar...and he would "munch" for a couple of seconds, then go back to the extremely rigid and beautiful dancing...but in SanFran, there were people with boxes for donations...but the dancing was still great!!!
yess! A new short documentary thank you! There was a few months between uploads so I became concerned that you already quit. Your docu series are wonderful, thank you! I share them with all my friends.
