It’s a funny feeling entering your short film into the Oscars, but we qualified, so we did it! It’s been one hell of a ride - from our strange pandemic festival run to this moment. Thankful we got here with your support - and it’s just cool a slice of Taiwanese America can be watched by Academy members!
Thank you Cucalorus Film Festival for screening Dot! Sun 11/20 at 4:15p
That’s a wrap on Kung Fu episode 310!!! What an unforgettable, incredible adventurous time I had on this show - it was such a f*kin blast and all the people I’ve met through this were the best collaborators and I will miss them.
A million thanks to Rebecca Windsor and Elly Lachman for curating my journey through the WBTV Directors Workshop, my managers at Echo Lake Ent, writer Brian Anthony for helming such a fun story, and brilliant showrunners Christina Kim and Bob Berens + the best producing director Joe Menendez for giving me this opportunity.
Off to the edit bay we go!
