Well in truth it has been a crazy start to 2010. By the way happy New Year to all my Chinese Friends. I really have not made time to blog or update this blog over the last few months and part of the reason is a lack of motivation coupled with a lack of feedback on most of the things I post. If you have any reaction to any of my dribble, please comment and perhaps I'll get a bit more interested to cover the news of Thailand and my X-Pat experience.
I must say that 2010 is off to a very good start. I have been meeting a lot with people in the Thai film industry and enjoying connecting with fellow film enthusiasts. Of course they come from the perspective of making films and I come from the perspective of studying and teaching film. Still they are very respectful and curious about the film world outside of Thailand. I am learning a lot about the way film is made here in Bangkok. I must say, it is very exciting world.
So currently I am working with an outstanding director, stunt coordinator, writer, and producer by the name of Panna. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panna_Rittikrai if you would like to take a look at his amazing occomplishments.
His best attribute is developing talent in the world of martial arts action stars. Currently he has two of the best in Asia in Tony Jaa and Jeeja. I'll post some videos of these two later.
So for anybody who is out there reading I'll try to get a bit more connected to the internet and throw a few more Thai bits of news up.
HAPPY 2010 and Happy year of the TIGER
