For the past several years, I’ve been running a camera user group called COBA, or Camera Owners of the Bay Area. We meet every month to talk about the latest developments in the digital camera space and feature presentations from photography-related companies and photographers. For the April meeting, we screened AUTUMN GEM to the COBA crowd at SmugMug headquarters in Mountain View, California.
Many COBA members have known that Rae and I have been working on AUTUMN GEM for the past year and a half. It was great to finally be able to share the documentary with them! We’re currently arranging more public screenings around the Bay Area and at universities and Asian-American/Chinese Historical organizations across the country. Soon, we’ll have a section of the site devoted to finding the next screening. Stay tuned!
