Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival (April 28th – May 7th)

It’s going down in two weeks beginning on Thursday, April 28th, and tickets are already selling out with the quickness! From what I’ve heard, the Opening Night screening, Justin Lin’s FAST FIVE, is already sold out!

On Friday, April 29th, WEDDING PALACE, a film I worked on back in late 2008, is making its world premiere at the fest! The screening’s already sold out, too! (Too bad I didn’t blog this earlier!) I think they usually hold a few tickets at the box office for those of you who want to try to get into the screening… ;]

And on Tuesday, May 3rd, CINEMA MUSICA, the music video program that I curate, will be screening at the CGV Cinemas in K-town. This program always sells out, so you should get your tickets while they’re still available! Check out the lineup here. And purchase tickets here. And of course, there’s always an afterparty.

1040 at SJSU tonight!

Bay Area friends, both Christian and non-Christian, if you haven’t seen 1040 yet, I’d like to invite you to see it. It’s very personal to me as I worked on it most of 2009 and it also inspired my nearly 3-month trip to Asia earlier this year. It’s been about a two year journey with this film and we’re wrapping up our fall tour tonight in San Jose… so it’s kinda like a homecoming for Jaeson Ma and me (w00t w00t, Bay Area)! We’ll be having a free screening at SJSU tonight beginning at 7pm and I’ll be there with friends and family! Hope to see you! Here’s the Facebook invite: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=167777826567793
