The National Park Service turned 100 years old, and they've been celebrating it all year! Even allowing free entrance for a week in April, of which I dutifully took advantage. Despite this, I've only been to a handful of these parks; and about a year ago, I wrote and hosted a piece about Utah's National Parks, which won the Communicator Award's 2016 Silver Award of Distinction.

Hopefully my list will keep growing, but at the top are Yosemite National Park in California, Zion National Park in Utah, and Volcanoes National Park in Hawaii. Now, if you're not close to any of these, don't fret because the National Park Service can help you find your closest National Park.

​Hi-Ho Silver!

Well, I've dropped the ball on keeping my blog up to date. I see the last few posts have all been about Brand USA, which is amazing! -- but only one of the few things that I've been working on.

I've done a few narrative projects, one of which will be released on Tuesday! It's called "Over A Girl" and stars Christian T Chan and myself as brothers caught in a love triangle. It will stream on the Indie Vision Projects Facebook and YouTube page. Stay tuned for that. On set pics below.

And I participated in the Asian American Film Lab's high-profile 72 Hour Film Shootout for my eighth year (WHAAAA!?) in a row. This year it was directed by Christina Jun who co-wrote the screenplay with me. The theme was "Lose the Labels" so we decided to make it about mixed up moving boxes, also dealing with the themes of identity as one does when given the theme "Lose the Labels." Coincidentally, it also features Christian T Chan as well as a few other familiar faces, and was shot by the very talented Sade Clacken Joseph. I'm happy to say that we made the Top Ten Selection this year, screening at the 39th Asian American International Film Festival in New York. Watch below!
