The Terracotta Far East Film Festival is a month away and the line-up of films will be released tomorrow. I have been a bit tardy in posting this information on a short-film competition with the awesome prize of a trip to Hong Kong but there is still plenty of time left to enter.
Here are the details:

Wow, great prizes – are you going to make a film??
Lynn 😀
There’s nothing stopping me but I won’t be this year. If there is a similar competition next year then I’ll definitely have a go!
This is a great info…I will tell my friends to send one.
Will you be entering Jason?
Not this year. I’m trying to stay on track with a number of things so I wouldn’t be able to put my all into a film. That written, it has inspired me a little to consider picking up a camera and filming something instead of just writing about films!
I shared this post to two young directors I know, hope they can come up with something.
Maybe you can still do it Jason 🙂
The only video I ever made was of my turtles. I will stay in writing about film 😉
It’s all a matter of time. I’m getting increasingly ambitious, I just need to make time.
That video of the turtles could be the first step on the way to a film career!
Since you are into Asian movies a lot, I have a feeling your movie will have Asian atmosphere 😉
hahaha as if this video > http://m.youtube.com/watch?gl=ID&client=mv-google&hl=en&v=GwWIncOMh-U
can be a first step to make movie 😉
Hay, just keep going and you’ll get there! As for this video, great use of on screen text to help create a narrative and some interesting editing techniques. You just need to tighten up the pacing 😉 Nice video. That is a very obedient turtle!
Thank you for the advice 🙂
I’ll keep that in mind.
Yes…she WAS my most obedient turtle.
Ah, she died? My apologies.
Thanks 🙂 it’s been a year now
It’s tough losing a pet so you have my sympathy. At least you recorded her.
I still write/share memory of her in my turtle’s blog.
I don’t want to sound like a person lingering in the past but I just don’t feel it’s fair to just forget about her in a blog made for her and my other turtle.
There’s nothing wrong with that and as long as you remember her she will exist.
