[More]The trip has been utterly rewarding. I met some film makers, producers,
editors, actors and organizers of the film festival. Talks and workshops were
very useful - I have gained insights about directing, casting, editing and budget planning. It is also incredibly important
for filmmakers to reach out and experience, connect and exchange in different places, since many new opportunities can be derived
from the festivals. For instance, I received recognition from a music director
based in London, and he invited me for a collaboration. The project is now
under development. I believe all these experiences will lead to a better film in the future.
I am grateful to NAE for the opportunities and I am hoping NAE could
continue supporting Hong Kong filmmakers in the future.
