So I went to see the screening of Red Earth at the HKIFF the other night. My Mom has been in town so I took her along with me. She like it so much that she went up to director Clara Law with a lot of comments. In fact she had so much to say I had to drag her away because I needed to get to a friend's party. The next day Clara suggested she write about it in my blog. So here it is:
Video: http://planetgreen.discovery.com/videos/worlds-greenest-homes-hong-kong-space-saver.htmlThis home is ingenious but I don't think I would have the patience to change it all the time. It probably would just stay in one configuration. It is a great example however, on how to deal with limited space. Architect Gary Chang is a local architect who has a column design hotels around the world. ...Read more
The HKIFF starts today. I blogged a little while back about the short film I did with Clara called Red Earth. It will be playing at the fest this year so try and catch it if you can. Here's the trailer for you to check out. It was done almost entirely with thousands of still photographs.

Here are some answers to your questions.
Jinting asked:
1. Is there any similarities and differences between you and Max?
The only similarity is that he is an ABC but other than that he is totally different than me. Max is an introvert who has problems fitting in with normal people. He has only two friends and a cat and prefers to...Read more
Thanks to everyone who came out to the Audio Alchemy party at Yoshi's in San Francisco on Saturday. It was a great turn out and the crowd was great. The highlight of the evening was Dan The Automator's brand new group (no name yet) with Emily Wells on lead vocals. I had the pleasure of listening to the demo tracks before the show but the live set still totally amazed me. Emily is an amazing singer and I love her voice. For tho...Read more
I don't usually promote my work on here because I think that's kind of douche baggy to talk about work stuff here(you might have noticed already) here but Like A Dream is a project I'm really passionate about and I know it won't get much media attention because "the business people" don't know how to promote a movie that's not mainstream. I guess if we shot it in 3D or had computer animation robots they'd be eager to help but this is just a beautiful little love story so I guess we're out of ...Read more
The Stage officially is being taken down in the next few days. Unfortunately I have been filming in Guangzhou the past couple of months and have not had time to spend with my creation but hopefully some of you were able to make it out to West Kowloon and see it. There are still many bamboo chairs there so if any of you need them feel free to go down there and take them otherwise they will...Read more

So this blog will be boring for most of you out there but for those into this....I got something you might like. It's the DSLR kit from Red Rock. As most of you know cameras like the Canon 5D mkII can now shoot high quality HD video that gives you a cinema like feel. That's mostly due to the fact that you get a great depth of field because you can change lenses which normal video camera can't do. The only draw back with these DSLRs is they suck ergonomically for shooting video. I get ...Read more
|Yes, long time no blog. That's because I'm working on a new movie here in China and really don't have time to think about anything else. I do however want to share these photos from a short film I did just before coming here with Clara Law. Clara and I worked together on Like a Dream which is finally coming out at the Hong Kong International Film Festival this March.
Red Earth is a short film that Clara and I did for the HKIFF so you will be able to see it there too. It...Read more
