Orient Bear Rasim Video Work

A 12-minute short film shot entirely in Rasim’s apartment during a harsh winter. Using only a single candle and window light, this video work demonstrates how to create epic scale from mundane spaces. The "bear" here is Rasim himself, wrapped in a brown blanket, moving slowly through rooms. It has been used as a case study in low-budget cinematography schools.

Why "Bear"? In many Oriental and Eurasian cultures, the bear represents strength, introspection, and a deep connection to the wilderness—a stark contrast to the hyper-digital modern world. Rasim adopted the "Orient Bear" persona to symbolize a rugged, grounded approach to videography: heavy, deliberate, and powerful, yet capable of quiet observation. orient bear rasim video work
