The music, the music! ~~Hans Zimmer~~! *edit* ZACK HEMSEY!!! And wow, the visuals are pretty crazy. Definitely looking forward to seeing this. Christopher Nolan… Leonardo DiCaprio… and Ken Watanabe’s supposed to be in this, too! Can’t wait.

Note about edit (6/11/10): So after thinking the music in this trailer was composed by Hans Zimmer, I started thinking “OMG, Hans Zimmer is THE MAN”… so I tweeted that I was winding down to some of his music… then I just found out that this whole time I was praising the wrong person. Doh. My composer friends who don’t like Hans will probably have a kick out of this one. I should’ve done my homework first. Zack Hemsey, if you’re reading this… you freakin’ rock.

Arowana Films has been on a roll with releasing both new and old projects… this particular one was shot over a year ago when all the Kim Jong Il vids were coming out. Notice a theme? Yah, North Korea. But instead of comedy… this one’s on the dramatic side. Stars Jae Choung (J Splif from FM), John Kim, and Lanny Joon. Cinematography by Remi Tournois. Written by Anson Ho. Directed by Evan Jackson Leong. Here’s the trailer:

And here’s episode 1:

"Urban Wolf" in Hollywood

May 23, 2010 Film

So Vincent Sze is visiting LA from Hong Kong to promote his online drama series, “Urban Wolf.” It’s funny, cuz’ I met Vince in a non-industry way, so I didn’t really know what he was all about (he’s an actor), but after hanging out with him the other day, he showed me a few episodes of “Urban Wolf”… and now I’m hooked (I just wanna see what the frick happens… it’s a thriller)! Check out the trailer:

You can watch “Urban Wolf” via Sony Pictures Television on Crackle.com (only available in the U.S., U.K., Australia, and Canada). They’ve been releasing one episode per day through May 27th (11 of 15 episodes have already been released). Each episode is quite short… approx. 4 minutes, so one episode def goes by fast. And because they’re so short, if you watch them consecutively, the pre and post-roll ads and credits can get a bit annoying. But how else are they gonna monetize things like this, right?

Anyway, it’s cool that Vince is in town meeting up with folks over here… maybe we’ll see him in some Hollywood flicks in the future…

Vince says he’ll have a star on the Walk of Fame one day…

It’s his first time in the USA, so I guess he’s excused for being super touristy. Haha!

"Ktown Cowboys" Episode 3

Alright, I’m gonna throw in a little bit of criticism here… I’m starting to think this was a lot better watching it as a feature. Things are still only just warming up. So far I can’t say these have been very strong stand alone pieces and seems like the biggest complaint is that they’re too short (though they are all over 6 minutes, which IMO is too long for YouTube). With that said, if we were comparing this to watching a TV show once a week vs. renting the entire season on DVD, I’d prob just wait for all webisodes to drop so that I could watch them back to back. By no means does this mean it sucks… it’s GREAT as a whole, so keep watching! :]

Btw, if you’re in the LA area, you can actually see the feature length version on June 8th at the brand new CGV Theaters in K-town!

This is so sick. When I first saw it on the Interpretations site, I was like, “OH SNAP.” It’s a slick vid featuring Far East Movement, produced by Anson Ho and Christina Hoang, with cinematography by Ray Huang, cuts by Greg Louie, graphics by Jonathan Winbush, and directed by Evan Jackson Leong who I spotlighted recently.

And just fyi, this is NOT an entry in the Interpretations contest. Just an example of what you can do with a simple script. So if you’re inspired… get your camera, some peeps, and make your interpration! For more info, check out: interpretationsfilm.com

5 out of 7 of the webisodes actually premiered as a feature-length at a sold out screening at the Los Angeles Asian Pacific Film Festival this past Saturday. ‘Twas definitely a good night for “Ktown Cowboys” with lots of buzz.

Now that the first episode has been released online, expect to see the rest in the coming weeks. If you like it, please comment, subscribe, favorite, and share!

All I have to say is that I can’t believe I’m missing this!!! It’s gonna be PK’s last year hosting… there are A LOT of people going… and of course, the talent! OMG, THE TALENT.

Very excited for Asians and Asian Americans in entertainment… God is on it. Trust.

Btw, if you’re wondering about my New Year’s resolution about blogging daily… well… obviously, that hasn’t been happening. I have very inconsistent Internet access here in Asia (been traveling a lot more than I planned and I don’t have a laptop). Anyway, I will seriously blog about some of the things that I’ve experienced here when I have more time :]
