Film Festival

映画祭。（えいがさい）Eiga Sai. trans. Film Festival.

Having no class today I spent practically the whole day with Kai and attended their school's Bidyo Festival 2010 (Video Festival) that showcased about 20+ original short films produced by various groups from their Film Theories and Practice classes. I must say the span of genres they tackled were quite exciting and the outputs were just as well-versed and breath-taking. I was deeply impressed by their hard work; my hats off to these student film makers.

Congratulations to Kai's group that produced Hector for winning the Miriam Spirit Award! Went to the awarding ceremonies that evening with Kai and her mom. :3

From horror to romance to comedy and whatnot, it was a nice blend of laughter and bone-chilling moments. Truly was a privilege to have been a witness to the fruits of these seniors' labor.

In other news, before the day officially ends in Japan I want to take the opportunity to greet a Tenimyu actor a happy birthday today! Namely Seigaku 2nd and 3rd cast's Fuji Syuusuke, Aiba Hiroki! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
