Stephanie McKay, a NY-based soul singer, is one of our recent branding projects. Currently, we are in the midst of creating branding ideas and creative executions. She just came back from the European tour promoting her fantastic new album "Tell It Like It Is" with a lot of terrific reviews...

The pictures you'll see on the above video were captured from her concert at the opening day of 2008 Central Park Summer Stage. She also shared the stage with legendary soul/gospel singer Mavis Staples.

Short-film project: "Hands" the movie...


It's been quite a while since the last time we have uploaded some news to our blog...so here you go: some brief information and snippets from the recent short film project in which I took part as Production Manager (as well as managing the whole Casting process)... This short fim called "Hands" was sponsored by Sony (Play-Station). However, story wise, it was nothing to do with Sony PlayStation. It was totally an original concept, an off-beat romantic comedy.


(Me...in front of my favorite store (seriously))...This project also comprised of a handful of young European directors, each of whom will contribute by writing and directing a 5-7 minute original short movies of their own. All of these movies will be screened at various film festivals throughout Europe such as San Sebastian , Venice, among others as well as via Internet late August, 2008.


Besides, these movies will be downloadable through Sony Play Station...This project was a collaboration between Sony and Shorts International which is the largest short fil distributors in Europe.

As part of this project, a camera team came from London and captured some behind the scene footage in addition to conducting some interviews...




Ta...taaa... happy hand!!!!
