Still relishing the magic from our final shoot day in the rain room for Mystery of Love. I love this duet danced exquisitely by @balletfreak & @taylornforte and shot by DP @pharelight.docs along with @_calebsherrill & @_kevinmanh. Beautiful original score composed by @natashafrankcomposer. Edited by me and @weissdocs. Currently in heavy editing mode, trying to reach the finish line slowly but surely 😅 #rainroom #balletfilm #dancefilm #dancefilms #silhouettes #silhouettechallenge #loveduet #experimentalfilm #waterballet #movementismedicine #redcam #redcamera

I am so excited to finally share my new film, The Age of Blossoms starring @chaseyi_, @anirudh.pisharody and @cpetelee. This film marks my 5th collaboration with the extraordinary @swissnick999 who honestly doesn’t get enough credit for consistently bringing our vision to life so poignantly each time. All my love and gratitude goes to my invaluable team: @juliabourlinaclassicalballet, @jackdavidwalker, @dorcasdrdt and @radiateliza. I don’t know how we got so lucky to wake up everyday and do what we love to do most. I hope you enjoy this film as much as we poured our heart and soul into it. Thank you for the unprecedented amount of messages and kind words. When we released The Dry Salvages, I had no idea that the film would become what it became and I couldn’t possibly have anticipated this film to receive an even more enthusiastic reception. And now without further ado, I present to you The Age of Blossoms via link in bio. Special thanks to @barakim_ for designing our awesome poster. Also special thanks to @aulacrestaurant Fountain Valley (my fave restaurant ever!) for hosting us. #lgbtqshortfilm #lgbtqfilm #lgbtqart #indieshort #shortfilm #shortfilms #shortfilmfestival #asianactor #asianactors #allasiancast #theageofblossoms

Hard to believe that I took this picture just a year ago at the Paramount Studios annual Christmas party. We had no idea that there would be no Christmas party this year. It’s inconceivable to even think that the year of Covid has brought me more projects than any other year before. And how this holiday season has turned out to be the most fruitful time of this bizarre year. I am so incredibly grateful for the opportunity to expand my artistic exploration with my ever growing creative family. Looking forward to a much needed down time over the next week and I can’t wait to get back out there again in the new year. Wishing you all the happiest happy holidays filled with unbounded love, peace and blessings. #paramount #paramountpictures #paramountstudios #christmaspartyideas #christmasparty #christmastrees #melrose #paramountchristmasparty #christmaslights #happyholidays2020

In the 11th hour of filming ‘The Dry Salvages’ when time was running out, @danieldasent came to me and told me that if I can just give him and @markchinnery one take they would get it done which they did. As a director, you’d do anything for actors like Daniel. There unfortunately aren’t a lot of artists like him who would selflessly give themselves to help fulfill your vision. I will never forget this. #amazingactors #bts #behindthescenes🎬 #onetake #filmdirecting

The Dry Salvages is now available to watch via link in bio. I have no words to describe the experience of making this film and the synchronicity that has unfolded since. This piece will always hold a special place in my heart. I am forever indebted to @swissnick999 (who beautifully and skillfully shot and edited the film), my extraordinary cast: @themaddancer, @chaseyi_, @danieldasent & @markchinnery, and my invaluable team: @juliabourlinaclassicalballet, @jackdavidwalker, @spunkysaghorse. And thank YOU all for the unprecedented amount of enthusiasm, love and support. I hope you enjoy the film as much as we have enjoyed creating it. #thedrysalvages #tseliot #dancefilm #dancefilmfestival #moderndance #contemporarydance #femaledirector #womeninfilm #experimentalshortfilm #shortfilm #shortfilms #shortfilmmaking #shortfilmfestival #experimentalfilm #shortfilmmakers
