【博客】JC Photobook: A Special Offer to My Fans| JC摄影辑:对 JC was a good friend and collaborator. We worked together countless of times for various magazine covers, editorials and adverts. He was one of my favorite photographers because he was quick, efficient and good. A talented photographer with no ego and a really nice guy at that, he succumbed to stomach cancer this year and passed recently at the young age of 34. He will truly be missed.His retrospective book, "Awakening", is amazing. It’s basically a who’s who of Hong Kong stars with everyone from Zhang Ziyi to Chow Yun Fat to 2R all beautifully shot by JC himself. All proceeds from the sale of this book will go to JC’s family. As a special offer to my fans, AnD would like to offer the option to buy an autographed edition at no extra cost. Simply click here and chose the option with my autograph and this beautiful book can be yours. Part of the purpose of developing the AnD artist community is to help one another, so please help us help JC’s family.

【博客】What's Your Color? Find Your True Color! | 你的真我是 I’m not sure really. I’ve had a strange fascination with chickens since college. Their existence often baffles me. Why are they on this planet? Do they exist only to be eaten? Being the lowest mammal in the food chain, I often feel sorry for them, because chickens are the weakest animals on the planet with no dangerous form of attack and absolutely no way to defend themselves. They can’t even fly away because their wings are so out of proportion with their bodies. So in a way this short film is turning the tables around for once. A chickens’ fantasy if you will. A chicken rights film. A chicken kicking my ass.I decided the only person that would get my oddball sense of humor and pull this film off was my good old buddy Jason Tobin. He played David’s assistant in The Heavenly Kings and pulled off the performance of a lifetime as Virgil in Justin Lin’s Better Luck Tomorrow. Jason has aspirations of directing and this was the perfect way to get his feet wet. Having done an awesome job on the music videos for Hardpack and Audiotraffic, I felt it was time to take Jason to the next level.We decided that we wanted to experiment with film this time instead of the regular boring old video. We chose the 8mm format because we just love that grainy 70’s home movie look. The texture you get out of 8mm film simply cannot be reproduced in video. We hired Jam Yau as our dp because of his special 8mm film knowledge. We set up a bunch of different types of rigs, including a mini stedi-cam to make the shots as dynamic as possible. Thanks to Jam we were able to make the most of shooting in 8mm. I definitely want to use this medium again in the future.We pulled off the entire thing in one long 14 hour shoot. Most of the scenes were shot on location in DEF boxing gym, where I work out from time to time. It was quite complex because we had to many setups and lighting conditions. Not to mention the actual fight had supporting actors and a whole bunch of extras that had no idea what the hell we were doing. Much props to Kim Chan for wearing the chicken outfit a dealing with the no air con conditions. We shot till morning then hit the streets to do all the outdoor running scenes. It was tough doing winds sprints after having been up all night and dealing with the summer heat but in the end we pulled it off.Jason handled the post-production entirely himself and even hired Don Cruz, guitar superstar from Audiotraffic, to score the film. In the end, the film exceeded my expectations and really kicked ass. I think chickens around the world will be thanking us for the work we’ve done for them for generations to come!
【博客】☆★Hawaii International Film Fest! | 夏威夷国际电影节 Well our trip to The Hawaii International Film Fest is just about over. I am leaving tomorrow but I don't want to go because we are having so much fun! I screened Blood Brothers on Saturday and we screened THK yesterday. Conroy, Andrew, our significant others and most of the alivenotdead posse all came out for this to wind up the whole THK experience. Too bad Terence couldn't make it. We also hooked up with the Finishing The Game crew and it was a blast meeting Justin Lin, Roger Fan and the legend, Dustin Nguyen.I finally got to see their movie tonight and it was awesome! If you get a chance to see it in the theater, you must go because it's too rad to miss. It's weird how THK and FTG are so similar in tone. Great job Justin and to everyone on the FTG team. I admire your passion and energy for the project. Respect! It was so cool to join forces here in Hawaii. Also got a chance to meet our contest winner and alivenotdead superman, Tony. What a nice guy and real supporter of Chinese film and culture. Good luck to you man!My good friends Martin,Wendy and Eric from Giant Robot made it out and we were able to have a couple good meals together. Always nice spending time with them. And I just got home from a late night snack with my old hommie from college and Hawaii local Kevin Chiang. We haven't seen eachother in 12 years so it was nice to reconnect again.So all in all a great trip. Check out the pics below: 在夏威夷参加电影节的旅程即将结束。我明天就要离开,但还不想走,因为在这裏非常开心! 星期六我参加《天堂口》放映会,昨天我们放映了《四大天王》。子聪、连凯、其他重要的朋友及大部分alivenotdead工作人员都参加了放映会,真可惜子维没有来。我们还跟《Finishing The Game》演员碰面,很高兴见到Justin Lin、Roger Fan及传奇人物Dustin Nguyen。 今晚我总算看到了他们的电影,很棒! 如果有机会进电影院观赏,你一定要看,因为错过了会很遗憾。奇异的是《四大天王》跟《Finishing The Game》风格很相似,Justin和整个FTG团队工作非常出色。我钦佩你们为此付出的激情和活力,尊敬! 能在夏威夷跟同好聚首是很酷的事。还跟这次比赛的冠军、alivenotdead超人Tony见了面。他人很好,大力支持中国电影和文化。祝你好运!我在Giant Robot的好友Martin、Wendy及Eric也来了,我们一起去吃了几顿美味,跟他们在一起总是很开心。跟大学的老朋友、夏威夷本地人Kevin Chiang吃了顿宵夜,现在我才刚回来。我们有差不多12年没见,真高兴又能重新联络上。总的来说是超级棒的旅行。看下面的照片:
【博客】★祖6.23★「Break a Leg! | 脚折了! | 脚折了!」 I'm not quite sure where this term originated and I really don't understand why you would tell someone that before going out to do a show. Does anyone know the history?OK here is some serious news that I have been holding back on until everything was under control. Remember my blog entry on June 22nd about my skateboard crash? I should have taken that as a sign and stopped right there but it really was so relaxing and fun pushing through the streets. Well on Tueday June 12th I was skateboarding to school early in the morning. My trucks were a bit loose and I had been meaning to fix them for a long time but I didn’t have the proper tool. On a perfectly straight and flat bit of road I got a speed wobble while pushing and lost balance. I put my right foot down to catch myself but my left foot was still on the board and unfortunately it twisted outwards as I fell. Usually when one rolls their ankle, they roll it inwards and this in called inversion. Not much happens, you get a sprain or tear some ligaments. Eversion is when the ankle rolls outwards and this is what I did. When you evert your ankle you not only tear ligaments but it puts an extreme amount of pressure on the fibula (the small bone next to the Tibia) and it breaks. So to make a long story short…I broke my ankle. I knew it the second it happened because like when I injured my knee several years ago, I actually saw it flip outwards. Very nasty.|不是很确定这个术语的来历,不知道为什麼有人可以在演出出发前告诉别人。有人知道来历吗?ok,我有严重的消息要发布,我一直没说,直到事态被控制住。还记得我在6月22日(编者:6月1日)Blog裏写的滑板事故吗?我本该把这个作为警告,不要再滑的,但在街道上有趣、放松的滑行实在太舒服了。6月12日星期二,我大清早的滑著滑板去学校,感觉滑板有点松动,本想修一下可以用更久的,但当时没合适的工具。在一条非常直而平坦的路上,我往前滑时速度很快,滑板摇摆起来,失去了平衡。我把右脚放下来停住滑板,左脚还在上面,很不幸,摔倒时往外扭伤了。一般人崴脚都是往内,叫足内翻,有少部分人会韧带撕裂。足外翻是脚踝往外翻,而我就是这样。足外翻不仅撕裂韧带,而且极大的压迫腓骨(靠近胫骨的小骨头)而折断。长话短说…我的脚踝折了。这是第二次经历,几年前我的膝盖也严重受伤,当时我看到膝盖外翻出来,非常恶心。

【专访】Veanne专访吴彦祖 Usually, Independent filmmakers work from the ground up,struggling to get exposure for their projects,so I found it interesting that Daniel Wu did it the other way around.After establishing himself as an actor in the Hong Kong movie industry,Dan took on the role of director with "The Heavenly Kings",a part narrative, part documentary that exposes the politics andcommodification of cantopop in the Hong Kong music industry.Basically he and his friends formed a boy band with minimal talentand became a huge phenomenon in Asia, performing to over 50,000 fans.Proof that saccharine, karaoke music prevails over actual talent.Our Media Institutions group project was defining Independent film:from content and aesthetics to mode of production and distribution.My section of the project revolved around the directors.一般来说,独立电影工作者都是默默无闻,通过他们的作品得到爆发和认可的。有趣的是吴彦祖走的是另外的路线。 成为香港电影演员之後,吴彦祖自导自演了《四大天王》。这部半叙事半纪录的影片,打破了香港音乐界的陈规、对粤语流行加以变革。 实际上他和朋友们组的这个男孩乐队是亚洲最没天分但带来最大事件的团队,吸引了超过5万粉丝。证明了经过处理的卡拉OK音乐的确比实际的天分有效。 我们媒体学院的团体目标是定义独立电影:从内容、美学到作品的模式和发行。我的任务是研究相关的导演。 this is the edited down version of my interview with him for our class presentation.下面就是经过剪辑在课堂播放的我对吴彦祖的专访(视频地址):http://alivenotdead.com/23482/viewspace_6944.html?r=andhpblogbigHe got me rethinking that maybe the term Independent film shouldn't be based on who's behind it, but rather its contentThanks Dan. Mad respect他让我重新思考,或许独立电影不该只看是谁的作品,而是更应该关注内容。谢谢Dan,疯狂地崇拜。 (以上是所有原文)
