Daniel Wu will be a featured Panelist in the forum titled 'The Star Power – The rise of Asians in Hollywood and new media' at the Imprint Conference 2007, held in Los Angeles.
2:50pm – 3:50pm The Star Power – The rise of Asians in Hollywood and new media
Asian Americans have always had the short end of the stick in Hollywood media, but now they are rising in Hollywood and new media such as Youtube. It’s possible that it’s deserved. Asian American films have cried wolf one too many times, but there are a few key people who are working towards a common goal although they don’t know they’re doing it. They’re just going about their work and not worrying about their ethnicity, or are they?
Talk to them; what they try to do and get out of it when you don’t get paid, what is the point? What are their experiences w/ Hollywood?
Who made it? How they reached it and how they use the medium to move forward?
What’s it like to be a “Star” and are they influential yet?
What does it mean for the future of Asians and Asian Americans.
Moderator: Martin Wong
