racing under bay bridge..
The SF dragon boat race happened last week in Treasure Island, its interesting that it's held during the chinese mid autumn festival... so they were also having the chinese mid autumn street fair in chinatown on the same day...
"在這個世界上﹐擁有自己想法的人是很難生存的﹐但一個人要是沒有自己的想法﹐那人生便毫無意義"
"It is very difficult to survive in this world if you have a strong will, but then if you don't have a strong will, life would be quite pointless."
read it somewhere, It sounds contradictory but yet so true... also remind me of a dialogue in shaolin soccer, "做人如果無夢想﹐同條咸魚有乜分別?" ..
So the berkeley art center's small film festival happened last weekend, and as expected, it's a smaller scale fest, say, compared to the full house 3min. film fest last month in the Mission area.
It is more like a local event for artist and people living in the community, which is in fact quite an interesting experience. Since it was held at an art center, the discussion atmosphere was actually more serious and engaging than few of the recent fests i attended before.

不知何解﹐近來感到有點累﹐是心神的累﹐也是肉體的累。
做事提不起勁﹐總是沒有什麼動力。
聽說中國星相學有種說法﹐人間中就會經歷這樣疲累的周期﹐好像說是和宇宙和行星排列有關﹐影響了人的作息秩序似的﹐不太清楚詳情。
又或者是個人的問題﹐近來很多處理中的事情都不是太順暢﹐有種get stuck的無力感﹐但又無法改變。
茫茫然﹐每日醒來人是困在籠中﹐心卻雲遊太虛。
有些事﹐衝不起﹔也有些事﹐放不低。
這樣的日子﹐真讓人感到前途未可預料...
saw the film yesterday, it's more or less expected, basically it wants to convey a simple point: we have a broken healthcare system and a lot of people are suffering.
just like what most moore's films are, it is like a one-sided story, and we are exposed all the bad things about the system in US, and all the good things about other countries like england, france, canada and even cuba, that are providing universal healthcare to everyone, including some americans going to cuba for treatment. is it a good film the...Read more
even though i am never a fan of moore, I am quite interested to check out this film.. just wondering if anyone has seen it? Any thoughts?
although i wouldn't say i am a vicitm of the healthcare system, i do agree it is strongly crippled.. i have just heard so many bad stories about how unfair and ridiculous a lot of these healthcare programs are.. the lack of care and service (e.g. lost in transalati...Read more
Just got the news that my short film "Thereafter" got into Berkeley Art Center's Small Film Festival. Feeling great about it since it is the first time "Thereafter" is showing in our hometown! The film has been shown at IFVA in Hong Kong, and also a film market in France, but then it never got the chance to play at home!

there are so many earthquakes around the world recently, it suddenly made us realize how fragile life is...
the red cross bay area chapter had an event a couple of days ago at the union square in downtown sf, in which they showed a large painting on the ground, which they called "super crack". it is a simulation of what would happen to union square if a 6.9 or higher magitude struck san fr...Read more

I just uploaded some screen cap of my latest short "dedicated to". Feel free to check it out.
As I said, it is a short I made for the Root Division's 3 mins. film fest. It is basically a last minute effort and one man band, I am the director/writer/cinematographer/editor/actor and my friends helped with the music.
It was a fun experiment and also my little tribute to the late Michelangelo Antonioni and a dedication to someone.
There is basically no narrative and a rough synops...Read more
