記錄片










最近不在管我blog的藉口就是因為在忙拍個記錄片。兩個好朋友從英國來台灣三個禮拜跟著我們去很多地方一步一步把我們為什麼來台灣的故事拍下來。很多在英國的朋友都會問我“為什麼要選擇去台灣”(其實很多台灣人也問我同樣的一個問題)。每次回答時不太知道要從那裡開始,常常講到一半問的人已經不要繼續聽!給朋友看照片或講故事真的不夠讓他們了解我們跟這個小島的緣份所以有機會拍這次的記錄片真的讓我很興奮也非常感恩。在拍攝過程當中我們兩個英國朋友跟我們說“本來不太了解你們在這裡做什麼也為什麼會離開英國那麼久,可是現在明白了”,讓我非常開心的是他們在拍攝有這個感覺可能代表看記錄片的英國觀眾也會懂!(回去時不會再被問“泰國好玩嗎?”)。
Recently we've been shooting a documentary, it took us about three weeks, taking us all around Taiwan, performing in many interesting venues, visiting some of the most beautiful places here and meeting a whole host of innovative people, all trying to push the boundaries of creativity in whichever field they are working in.
"Why did you guys go/come to Taiwan?" is a question that seems to come at me from all directions (from English and Taiwanese people alike) and trying to tell the whole story usually leaves people feeling a bit confused after a few minutes.
It was kind of a dream to be able to capture something of why we came here, what we do here and why this place and it's people are special to us, so having our two good friends come and actually document a genuine Transition tour with all it's ups and downs, the people the places and everything else around felt like the dream coming true.
Now I'm looking forward to seeing something of the final product, want to show you all:)!
