Hey, Everybody!
Geez, how long has it been? I know, I disappeared from my blog scene, thought about closing it, but decided not to. At least not yet!
Anyway, I wanted to drop a line to anyone who still looks at this page and let you know that I'm still alive and been busy on my YouTube channel.
More importantly, I made a short film recently and it's up on Vimeo.
Check it out here!

Comment on it, share and let it spread!

Still Here!
Hey Guys!
Sorry it's been so long since my last post. Just going through life and all its drama. I'm sure most of you out there know what it's like to have drama in your life. It can come in any form, some of it is good and others can also be bad and not the way you expected it to be.
But, that's another story and not worth going into.
Well, first off, I want to say that I am fine and going about my things and responsibilities as always. I finished the first draft of this semester's MFA project and I'm proud of it. Now begins the revision process on that project, and working on some fiction for the upcoming residency.
My hands will be full for the next couple of weeks as I try to get all that in fine form, but I know I will get it done!
On another note, I'm sure all of you out there must be aware of what happened in Japan. The devastation in Fukushima is terrible, but from what I heard things seem to be holding. Still, the catastrophe due to the earthquake and subsequent Tsunami have left many there homeless and in need of provisions.
It saddened me to see such a thing happen, but, like life, it is unpredictable. All we can do is show support and give them as much relief as necessary to cope with the disaster. If you can help then please do by making donation to your nearest red cross, or affiliates that are taking donations!
Well, that's it for now. I promise to be back soon, so look forward to my next entry!
Until then!

My First Taste At Acting!
Hey Guys!
So, I just returned home after quite an eventful morning and mid-afternoon. Well, now that I think about it, it wasn't that eventful, but rather interesting and fun!
I am still keeping the precise details behind what happened today very hush, hush. It's a secret project that once completed will be released onto the Internet world, and allowed to walk on its own legs!
So, what am I talking about anyway? Haven't you been reading! I can't say, ha! Anyway, it was a small film project that involved a small group of us from NYHG. And, I got to do a bit of acting for it. I didn't have any lines, but my facial reactions were one of the many useful and required pieces to this project.
Below are several pictures I took throughout the course of our afternoon.
So, we all met in Chinatown, and discussed the final breakdown of the scenes during breakfast at a coffee shop nearby. We all had a laugh at how ingenious this thing was! To be honest, this little project was the collaborative brain child of myself and my Sifu.
We talked about it on a few occasions, and thought how cool and funny it would be to actually make this! Finally, he went ahead and said let's do it. Yeah, enough talking about it, let's just film it already! Once Kelly and Jane, our film and media artists, came on board, it was a go. My Sifu had already spoken to a good friend of his who owns a shop in Chinatown, so a location was already set.
I don't appear in any of these pictures, but I will in the final product! We only shot outside the store and inside, and it took about a couple of hours before we were done. It went by really fast. Even my portions were quick and only needed to be shot a couple of times. Again, facial reactions can be a little tricky, ha! But, I made the most of it. I have to say, it was fun, but I'll be too embarrassed to look at the finished product once it's done!
Like I said before, it was a fun afternoon to be with friends, do a little filming, a little acting and have some laughs! I want to thank Kelly, Rose and Jane for being the professionals that they are in their craft. You guys and gals rock! Thanks to Ben for coming out and playing a part in this project; you're our boom guy, Ben! To Sifu Yui for putting this on wheels and saying let's have fun with it!
And, a special thanks to Victor for allowing us to use his store, and for being a part of it!
Well, folks, there are still a few things that need to be done before this can hit post-production, but rest assured that when it comes out, I'll let you know. We'll unleash this onto the Internet world, and let start walking on its own. So look forward to it; although, I'll probably be hiding under my bed covers, ha!
Until next time!
