Historia Yi

Welcome to my world of filmmaking. I am Yi Wang, professionally known as Historia Yi, affectionately referred to as Big Carrot, a director and producer with extensive on-set experience.

As a filmmaker, my creative journey is deeply inspired by a singular mission encapsulated in my self-chosen professional name Historia Yi. Historia, meaning “story” or “history,” represents my dedication to documentation and storytelling, while “Yi” reflects my personal identity within this creative endeavor. “Yi(逸)” is my legal name, chosen for its rich symbolism in Chinese culture, signifying transcendence, freedom, and the pursuit of excellence — ethos that guide my artistic expression in cinema.

I firmly believe that a film work is human being him/herself. It’s not a part of the person but a reflection of the individual at that particular stage of his/her life. If you’re hollow, your work will lack substance. If you’re restless, your work will be rough; If you’re fragile, your work will be rigid; If you’re arrogant, your work will be petty; If you’re shallow, your work will be corrupt; If you’re lazy, you’ll have no work at all. This philosophy drives me to infuse authenticity, depth, and diligence into every frame I craft, ensuring that my work resonates with the essence of who I am and the ideals I strive to embody.

My approach to storytelling revolves around the belief that vulnerability itself is beauty. Through my work, I aim to capture authentic human experiences that resonate with audiences on a deep emotional level.

I am passionate about challenging conventional moral frameworks and exploring the complexities of human nature. I believe that beauty transcends traditional notions of morality and strive to create thought-provoking narratives that encourage introspection and empathy.

Embark on a cinematic journey with me as we delve into the depths of human emotion and explore the endless possibilities of storytelling. Together, let’s push the boundaries of creativity, challenge societal norms, and ignite meaningful conversations through the captivating medium of film. Join me in shaping the future of storytelling and leaving a lasting imprint on the hearts and minds of audiences worldwide with Big Carrot Production.
