It should have been Kang.  Really, it should have.

a producer saved my life

I didn't mean to, but last night, while driving, I got on the phone with a producer friend of mine whom I have the utmost respect in the world for.  My friend is a very accomplished individual with a heart of gold.  With her crazy schedule, she always still finds time to give advice to those who ask and, trust me, I have found myself asking her for much advice in the past.This week, my friend wrote a very important letter to the Producer's Guild of America that has started to generate what I think is a healthy dialogue that h...Read more

Now what?

This has been a pretty non-stop year.  Until now.  I'm in LA and I'm finally getting a chance to pause as no projects are actively shooting at the moment.  My docu-series picks up again this weekend, but the last couple of weeks have been relatively quiet.  It feels weird.  And I think I've come to realize that I don't do well with not being engaged on a project or working on something.  I just wrapped a feature film, but it's now in the hands of an editor so as much as I want to move it along to help it get finished and then in...Read more

On Hawaii Five-0

On Hawaii Five-0:

Nightdreamblues & life...

Asia, we're wrapped!  I kinda wish I had kept a daily production blog of our 16 day shoot, but it was just too grueling to do that.  Hopefully one day soon I'll sit down and try to rehash on a daily basis what went down from memory, a calendar, and callsheets.  I hope we are able to share this film one day across various regions, including that of Asia.  It's an Asian American story, but a universal one at the same time.  If you could do me the kind favor, please follow us on Facebook at our: Read more

It's August?

We're 7 months down already?

As I write this just before midnight from Honolulu, Hawaii, I am simply amazed at how quickly time has passed this year.  And if there were ever really were a Jumper out there jumping from various time zones as if it were like we were moving through the Matrix, I would dare say this year I might have been the one.

I got here to Hawaii to start filming for season 2 of 5-0 (very grateful they called C Fong back!) from Taipei where I was in production for our NBA player docu-series.  I had to jum...Read more

Help Kickstart my next project!

Hi AnD World! I'm currently working away on a passion project that is very near and dear to me to be shot in Los Angeles this fall.  I can't tell you how excited I am about it and how talented a director and team I'm working with.  We're in need of a bit more funding to reach our finish line and I'm hoping that some of you out there will be willing to drop a coin, dollar, or whatever into the bucket to help us reach our goal!  We're already off...Read more

Just saw AnD creator Stephen Wang in Shanghai and finally have a moment to breathe, so surfing around on this site and able to throw a blog in again.  I'm so sporadic, it frustrates me.  Good thing I'm not paid to blog for I'd be completely broke if it were the case.

This has been a weird year.  By weird I mean good.  But crazy.  It's just been very out of the ordinary.  I haven't really had an ordinary year in the last few years, but this one juts out.  2011 has been pretty good to me from the acting side of things, but ...Read more

ScreenSingapore

I think AnD is promoting ScreenSingapore.  I'm actually here.  Are any other AnD artists?  It's BALMY here, as it always is.

B Blog

I'm not sure what I drank on New Year's Eve this past year, but whatever it was, it created a monster this year.  I've been going non-stop literally.  Not complaining whatsoever, but it's a bit to the point now where a night like tonight, at the start of the weekend, is the only time I'll have to just get a chance not to have to do something.  (I do have a lot of shows on my DVR to catch up on.)

Actually, I want to talk about this thing for a sec I just put in parenthesis.  Lately, I've been informing my friends to tune...Read more
