5/5/09 (Cinco de Mayo) - CINEMA MUSICA!

Alright. It’s that time of year again. My music video program for the Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival is coming up. This is my third year curating it and they say “third time’s a charm!”

This year, we’re taking it downtown to the Downtown Independent and Toyota has come on board to soup up the night with what should be an excellent rooftop after party! Of course, the main event is the music video program which begins at 7:30p. It’s about an hour long with Q&A to follow. So please come and join us for that and ask a lot of questions, cuz’ I really suck at facilitating these things.

Also, Chris Chan Lee’s music video for Big Phony, “Words That Define” is going to be screening! So… I guess you can check me out on the big screen o_O

P.S. - Karin Anna Cheung (who is also in one of the vids that will be screening) thought we purposely called the program “Cinema Musica!” because of Cinco de Mayo. But actually, I had named the program “Cinema Musica!” before we had even scheduled it! This year we were looking for HD videos with cinematic elements and somehow “Cinema Paradiso” was the inspiration for the name. Cinema Musica! + Cinco de Mayo! It must be fate.
