I'm really lookin forward to what this Fall brings. Been back in NYC now for over 3 weeks now (amazing, I've gotten to just be in one place for awhile), but gearing up to hit the road again soon. In a couple of weeks, I'll be in Hawaii for the Hawaii International Film Festival for the world premiere of THE PEOPLE I'VE SLEPT WITH, a film I had a hand in producing. Very excited about it as we are playing a half dozen or so film festivals coming up. After HIFF, will be the Golden Horse Film Festival in Taipei - my favorite city in the world! (Our entire list of fests is here on: Facebook - add us!)

Before that, I will be in LA on a writing retreat for a film I'm working on with my bud Ted Chung. I've talked about Ted a ton before and I probably will forever. I just have so much respect for the guy. We're working on a couple of project together that has me amped. Check out this online film critic episode they did on his film A Thousand Words:

His is the second film reviewed in this episode.

With some other stuff happening, other than the PEOPLE premiere in TPE, back in Asia, I'll be hop-scotching back over there too. Can't find me one place to live and settle down in and my back on all these flights is really feeling it...

If anyone ever needs a great DP for something, let me introduce you to Eunah Lee. She's stellar. Period. And she has a great ear apparently for music. I really enjoyed this montage from a film we worked on together: MONTAGE! The music is from this great NYC composer named Duke B. Way to be, Duke B.

Caught a great band this weekend and I gotta find a way to fit them into films I work on. Hyper fun. You guys will like: The Orion Experience.

Brian is a Chinese-American actor who was born in Columbus, Ohio, raised in the Bay Area, California, and currently lives in New York, New York. While at school at UC Berkeley, he fell into acting by taking a Dramatic Arts course for fun and he's never stopped since.

He began his acting and modeling journey as a model in the Macy's Passport Fashion Show in San Francisco before making a stop in Los Angeles for a couple years before eventually setting into New York. Along the way, he's worked in film, television, and theatre as an actor.
Stage highlights include "Free Country" at the San Francisco Asian American Theatre Company, the Pulitzer-Prize winning play "Wit" at the Philadelphia Theatre Company, and "OneFamilyOneChildOneDoor", a play about China's one-child policy, with the Yangtze Repertory Theatre in New York.

Brian has had parts on General Hospital and VIP with Pamela Anderson on television and has done commercials that have aired worldwide for HSBC, Buick, The Wall Street Journal, and Microsoft. On screen, he was perhaps best known for his role as "Little Yu" in Alice Wu's 2005 Sundance hit "Saving Face" where he was Joan Chen's younger secret love. At the 2007 Tribeca Film Festival, Brian's short film "Red Shoes", directed by Singaporean director Li-Anne Huang, made its premiere.

He's also had print campaigns running globally for companies such as: Goldman Sachs, Toshiba, Microsoft, and Royal Carribean.

Recently, Brian has turned his attention to producing as well and thus has started a production company, 408 Films, along with some partners, with the intent of producing features that hold international cross-over appeal.
