  Patty is a veteran in the Asian media and entertainment business. Over the past 20 years, she has held key positions in many big companies. From the '80s to the '90s, she was working in Ogilvy & Mather, Saatchi & Saatchi and Academy One Films. From 1995 to 1997, Patty was instrumental in the setting up of the Channel Marketing function at Hong Kong Cable Television Limited when she was the Deputy Marketing Controller over there. In the years of 1997 to 2000, Patty joined Time Warner's Turner Entertainment Networks Asia, Inc. as Regional Marketing Director and looked after all the marketing activities for Cartoon Network and TCM in the region as well as helped launch HBO into India. From March 2002 to Oct 2004, Patty joined Celestial Pictures as Group Marketing Director looking after all of the communications and promotional activities for the company's integrated media and merchandise businesses in Asia. She has also been personally involved in the creation and production of numerous T.V. commercials and promotional videos.
  
  Whilst working for Celestial, Patty was inspired by the many classic Shaw film legends that she had the honor to meet in person. This had triggered her interest in writing stories and becoming a film director. In mid-year 2004, Patty decided to quit her job and went to study for a 1-year film-making course (Nov 04 to Sept 05), jointly hosted by the Federation of Hong Kong Filmmakers and the Hong Kong government.
  
  In 2005, Patty has written her first book "The Close Encounters with the Shaw Film Legends" which was published by Sing Tao Publishing to many parts of the world and has stayed in the No. 1 Rank in "Sing Tao's Top 10 Selling Chart" for many months. The book was also ranked as the No. 10 in the “Best Selling Books in Singapore” by the "Top Culture Index" of Yazhou Zhoukan (Vol. 19 Issue 26).
  
  In 2006, Patty has made her first attempt in directing a dark humor short film "BLACK OUT" and written the original movie concepts of “BEAUTIFUL LEG", “2882”, “CAMAY and HER DOG", “KILL AND RUN” as well as “THE DARK PIANO". During the same time, she has also launched a bi-lingual print and web publication, INWEDDING magazine (now renamed as INMAGAZINE) in the position as contract Managing Editor in only 4 months' time from scratch.
  
  In July 2007, Patty's 3-min trailer of “2882” is selected to be shown at the 11th FANTASIA INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL in Montreal. In November of the same year, Patty has won the MTV Asia competition as the director and editor for the best video to accompany the track titled "I'm Proud To Be Chinese".
  
  Patty is indeed an energetic person who has the proven track record to create and manage projects of various natures, magnitude and scales. She is a rare gem who not only possess creativity but also the necessary marketing sense and production skills to make a world-class top-notch producer/writer/director, based out of Asia. She now owns her film and promotions company, GIG CREATION Limited (www.gigcreation.com) which offers corporate image and branding services as well as film production services to clients.
