Armed With a Camera!

If you’re Asian Pacific American, 30 or under, an emerging filmmaker, and live in LA, this is a program I would encourage you to check out! I was part of the ’05 program and it was awesome. Great peeps, great resources, and great networking.





Haha, me 4 years younger… with a really cheesy bio.

Here’s the piece I made through the program (most of you have probably seen it):

The official word from Visual Communications:

Update: Submissions for LAAPFF Music Video Program

Hey all, thank you so much to those who have submitted music videos to me so far. I’ve received some pretty cool stuff and there’s still a lot to go through!

Here’s an UPDATE: I’d like to see more music videos where I feel like I’m watching a narrative film… where for a moment I actually think I’m watching a movie instead of a music video (here’s a good example from last year’s program… another example would be My First Crush :P ). Anyone got one of those? Please send it my way! If it’s online, email the link to grace@peachies.net or send me a DVD screener to:
