So I happened to stumble on this short called My Life In Brown And Pink by young Filipino filmmaker Jazmyn Joseph who comes out to her family and friends and I just had to post it on up. The short is a part of a two and a half week program as part of the Asian Rites of Passage Program:
The Asian American Video Production course is a two and a half week program as part of the Pan Asian Rites of Passage Program at Lane Community College. Taught by Jason D. Mak, the Executive Director of the DisOrient Asian American Film Festival of Oregon, middle and high school students are taught how to find their voice and tell their stories through video.Check out more of the films at the YouTube channel.
The class is taught as a college level video production course. Students learn how to pitch their film ideas, write scripts, direct, operate video, sound, and light equipment, edit using Final Cut Pro Studio, and do sound production using Garageband and Soundtrack Pro. Most importantly, they learn how to be community artists with a social justice heart.
