- I got a chance to visit the workshop where Hong Kong's streetcars have been handmade since 1904. This video is a celebration of the craftsmen who create an iconic part of Hong Kong's culture. Learn filmmaking from me! myfilm.school/...

I don’t know how you make your money, but I could watch these micromovies all day long (& I am sure they don’t pay much!). Your content is phenomenal!!! Thanks for all you do!
this would probably cost at least 20-40k if it wasnt a gift.
He does films for National Geographic and comercials and so.
Beautiful video dude👍💫
The gimbal god himself! Beautiful piece brother.
The Content Creator yep
So true 🔥🔥🔥
Hong Kong Tramways just received a very nice gift! I'm looking forward to a directors commentary if you ever get a chance to make one!
Not just the Hong Kong tramways. To me it also always feels like a little gift when Brandon uploads a new short movie. This one especially, because I recently was in Hong Kong myself and got on the tram (and got some footage ;).
to me its just a gift when brandon uploads in general
A 2 minute and 32 second masterpiece!
Indeed.
Take away all the hype and what you have is pure skill. Brandon- you inspire us to create truth and beauty and not rely on trending transition effects, or exaggerated filters, or clubby music. All these so called "travel vloggers" need to learn from you.
Dude, you gave that tram a personality, a SPIRIT. Brandon is a true storyteller.
Brandon! Please come back! We need your videos and film school.
Oh my lord that tram fly through at the end!! Your eye for emotional camera moment is incredibly intelligent. I feel like every scene has meaning. No filler, all killer. I would love to see your thought process on the inspiration you had for this project from start to finish. Watching you grow from one video to the next is an absolute pleasure. Keep it up!!
Absolutely magnificent!
Never thought I'd be this fascinated about a tram... thanks Brandon. Your videos are just eye candy!
I am not sure why I started crying towards the end ... who would’ve thought trams can be so emotional... love your work
I love trams. That's why I made the video
holy balls. what did my eyes just witness.
i got goosebumps
amazing! love the crispy audio also
the shots after 2:01 were crazy!
Just beautiful , Sooo, sooo beautiful
Dude, your vlogs are SOMETHING ELSE
i have seen this already so many times . and i get awestruck every time i watch it.
I stop all else when I get a notification from you. And once again, I'm not disappointed
I second that
haha, I was thinking the same.
To each their own right. Thanks for expressing yours. Cheers mate
The people of Hong Kong are so hardworking. Keep up the good work Hong Kongers! ;)
I am from hk and I really like this video
This video really shows the tram's history and its life. Thank you Brandon!
Oh, thank you for that. I lived in HK for 10 years and regularly commuted by tram. I miss the way they trundle along, in no particular hurry. The tram and the Star Ferry were two of my favorite pleasures about HK. I hope they're always there.
Brandon, this was such a wonderful homage! I loved every second. And of course Kobe is perfect too ;)
If you ever had a chance, it would be wonderful if you could make a video on tips for recording real life sounds for later use in post production. As always though, amazing work! Thank you so much for the beauty you can share to the world.
spectacular job. Finally one person that actually tells a story instead showing random images.
Amazing. Simply amazing. Great gift to the Hong Kong Tramways!!!
Hong Kong Tram a MASTERpiece
I always get a mouthful whenever I click a Brandon Li notification...once again, marvellous work!
the sound effects are always spot on
Loved all the smooth transitions. Well done!
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL GIFT!!! HK's tramways are my favorite transportation in HK, and honestly, that's a wonderful homnage!
Great job my friend, I loved it!
indeed, very well made video!
Awesome!
This video is straight fire. Great shots all around!
The Trams are one of my fav things in HK! This is so beautiful
your one of my Hero's in cinematography Brandon Li =)
Thank you…
I have visited Hong Kong several times (it is one of the World’s Greatest Cities!) and always ride the tram many times, each visit (I also like to ride on the upper deck, in the front seat, like the woman in the video does).
Your video was very nice, with EXCELLENT production values. My wife (from Vietnam), and our son (half American/half Vietnamese) have not been, yet, to Hong Kong, but we are going to Vietnam in six months, for Tet. We will stop off in Hong Kong on the way there, and ride the tram! I will show them this video. Thank you!
You are the best!
Your transitions and movements are so fluid... I wanna cry
When I watch your videos I always get catapulted into another world! 😍
LIVING THE DREΔM . me too. it is like opening of every hollywood movie
^^ only better.
That natural sound! Beautiful edit. Chills.
I bet Brandon Li can turn taking the trash out into a cinematic film.
the background music and the sound effects is like chasing each other through the song
Great work as always Brandon! Do you have any thoughts on hyperlapses done by photographs versus speeding up video? Just curious! Cheers mate!
Trillions of beautiful stories in the world, all we need is a smart film maker like you. Wow.
Nice POV mode!
Absolutely amazing! The trams are such a charming part of Hong Kong
A two-and-a-half-minute long eye candy. The meaning of my life has been fulfilled.
I have been to HK a few times and i love the tram the most! This video really TOUCHES me!
Sheer Talent!
I rarely watch TH-cam videos more than once, and I've watch this video four times. The story was great, and the cinematography was awesome. Thanks for sharing!
I've never in my life seen a video with 6k views, 1500 likes and 0 dislikes

Nope, there's 2 now. Those 2 people are still busy finding a reason for their thumbs down.
Now it's up to 6... Hahahaha... Must be those Oscar winning directors. :D
Wonderful. You master an art: showing in few minutes a slice of life with a lot of emotion.
She is so beautiful 😘 , Brandon how did you take this shot no explanation 😐😑
EASILY the best creator that utilizes pacing to masterful levels
Where can I find the sfx for the transitions?
Theft Tv TH-cam woosh sound
Crazy good. So many ideas in one smooth, short film.
I love ❤️ Hong Kong 🇭🇰
And I love the trams 🚋
Such a beautiful piece of cinematography and creative storytelling. Bravo!
Great film which brings back all my memories. The Hong Kong Tram is my favourite transportation when I was a kid in Hong Kong.
A wonderful piece. It grabbed me at the beginning and held me all the way through. Great job.
Amazing Brandon - Who would have thought a film about trams could be so beautiful?!
I'm blown away, it's so well put together!
That's absolutely amazing. The filming, the editing, and the sound design more than just pulled it all together, it sold me!
The background music is just fantasising the whole scene.......
Great.. 😀😀😀
The way you shoot (and edit for that matter!) is inspiring. Really creative. This is fantastic.
We love your work Brandon. It‘s amazing
Incredible gimbal work. Very well done Brandon!
I love the constant movement of the camera.
Simply the best!!! You make me want to take tram everyday!!!
I love the fact , how it treats my direction to the visuals, i mean the video seems effortless and smooth throughout. But the fact how it is made amazes me. The composition and visual flow is flawless!
My jaw dropped after the first 10 seconds. Such a beautiful story matched with exceptionally creative framing, motion and transitions. I feel so inspired to go create. Thank you.
This is so far my favorite. It's excellent, the flow in this one is amazing.
Thanks for sharing this beautiful story
The flow in your videos is phenomenal. A masterpiece...very well done!!
Truly a magician with your hand and gimbal !! hats off!!
This is so beautfiul, has a magic feel to it. Also, insane camera work.
Magic little look at all the details that go into making a part of the city run. I was in HK recently but didn't get to ride the trams - now I feel compelled to go back and take a lap around the city on the tram!
Superb example of fast editing, fluent gimbal movement and great sound effects! Brandon you raise the bar… once again!
I loved how you used the rolling axis in this one. It added a subtle extra dimension to the wonderfully graceful flow throughout the movie.
Dude! That transition at 1:04 is sick!! Great job!! as usual!
Hands the greatest travel filmmaker in the game! No other can combine a story, amazing cinematography and such perfect editing and sound design into a 2:31 long video. Such a legend!!!
Very entertaining and an eye-opener! The model as well! Amazing skill and talent it took to produce this gem. Thanks!
I don't know how you did it. But I have tears in my eye. Other people capture videos, but you captures moments and emotions.
Your videos are my favorite. Absolutely beautiful!
Nicely made affectionate storytelling. I'm sure Hong Kong Tramways will be delighted with it.
I love how you use the roll axis Brandon. Such a unique touch that seems to be a signature of your work.
A movie like.... awesome cinematic editing skills
When ever i feel sad, I comeback to watch Brandon's videos. I think i have an addiction problem with Brandon's videos... Beautiful Work by the way!
You’ve made public transportation elegant and beautiful. Amazing work!
Stunning as always!!! Miss HK trams already.
Always gold! What a storyteller!
The first short film that I actually clicked the LIKE button, this is some next level creation here 🔥
Loving the camera movements
Beautifully shot and edited. Always enjoy your work.
Oh damn Brandon, these smooth transitions... Really nice!
Simply stunning Brandon. Thank you for the inspiration you so gracefully give.
Just breathtaking!
Thank you Brandon for sharing your gift to Hong Kong Tramways with us. I loved it! I love the way you tell us a story with simplicity, the music you choose and the awesome editing you perform. It is truly amazing! Thank you for being an inspiration.
