Content Strategist · Videographer · Media Researcher
Content strategist and videographer working across media, marketing, and visual storytelling. With a BA in Architecture from Tsinghua and an MA in Media Studies from Columbia, I bring technical thinking and cultural insight to the way stories are conceived, produced, and shared.
Eve Guo is —
I work at the intersection of video production, content strategy, and marketing. My practice spans campaign concepts, creative assets, and audience engagement, shaped by experience in an AI startup as a full-stack PM and AI videographer.
My architecture training at Tsinghua developed an engineering-minded approach to systems, structure, and visual composition. My graduate study in media at Columbia deepened that foundation through film analysis, cultural research, and critical thinking. I bring both perspectives to content: understanding how a story works, why it matters, and how it reaches people.
Campaign & Videography
I have worked in an AI startup as a full-stack PM and AI videographer, bringing product thinking and visual storytelling into the same practice.
I see AI video as a way to explore cinematic ideas: faster experimentation is most meaningful when it serves a clear story, intentional framing, and rhythm. My vision for tech + media is to make creative tools more accessible while keeping human taste, cultural context, and authorship at the center.

Writing · Film Criticism
Why does the internet feel compelled to “explain” Wong Kar-wai? This essay tracks how YouTube’s Film Explained genre turns Wong’s ambiguous cinema into algorithmic content through masculine interpretive authority and digital Orientalism.
Writing · Cultural Criticism
Conspiracy has become younger, softer and more intimate — less a doctrine than a mood. This essay looks at how post‑Covid youth use conspiratorial thinking to narrate identity, marginalisation, and the ache of living in an unstable world.
Writing · Cultural Criticism
From Burtynsky’s monumental factory vistas to Cao Fei’s melancholic dreamscapes, this essay follows how images of Chinese labour move through museums, documentaries, and the art market as both ethical provocation and aesthetic commodity.
