This episode comes from the Short Drama Forum 2025 Q3 Edition, a global roundtable connecting short drama creators from across cultures.

🎤 Our guest is Kunlin Wang — a bilingual director who transitioned from academic filmmaking into the high-pressure world of Chinese vertical short dramas.

Her breakout project, “Makeup Sex”, showcases everything we love about this genre: intense emotional beats, sharp plot twists, and cinematic pacing — all under 60 seconds.

In this forum session, Kunlin shares:

• How she directs 1-minute stories with emotional impact and narrative density
• The creative challenges of adapting short drama to international markets
• Why female creators might have a unique edge in vertical storytelling
• What it’s like to move from film school to commercial platforms, and how to stay creatively sharp
