What's up?

it has been my 4th year in graduate school.  for the past few months, i've been working on my graduation project "a funeral(working title)" which is a 25mins short fiction film.  idea of this story came from my childhood memories to my grandma who is a local "roadside feast" cook for decades.  somehow i adapted my memories a bit for this short film, combined religious, death, and cultural issues into this story.  should be interesting, if all the contexts could mix up together and weave up new meanings in details.  i do look forward to the result, can't wait to see what would happen if all the ideas did work.

still working on my script, hopefully that i can manage to shoot this film before mid-november.
