A Documentary on the Life of China’s First Feminist

Betrayal

June 7th, 2008

Qing Dynasty Governor

We’re on the home stretch for completing our principal filming and photography. This morning, we photographed our betrayal scene with Xu Xilin and a Qing Dynasty Governor. Preston and Stan did a great job posing for the camera. I’m famous for the line, “One more time,” and they both were very patient when I snapped shot after shot.

Scholar Interview Photos

June 5th, 2008

Lingzhen Wang and Rae Chang

We had a great few weeks of traveling to Southern California and the East Coast to interview three scholars for the documentary. We met with Professor Hu Ying at UC Irvine, Professor Lingzhen Wang at Brown University, and Professor Amy Dooling at Connecticut College. We’re headed back up to the Bay Area tomorrow, and we have just a few more scenes to film and photograph before we start our post-production schedule.

June 2nd, 2008

Rae, JP, and I took the redeye flight to Newark, NJ and Providence, Rhode Island yesterday evening. We’re on the East Coast to interview two more scholars, Lingzhen Wang of Brown University and Amy Dooling of Connecticut College. The weather in Providence is great; it actually feels like the Bay Area with sunny skies!
