ANOTHER UFO?
So I talked to the senior producer at this largest
film studio here in Cebu City, Philippines, and was
quite surprised to find that it's basically another
UFO FIlms... just a LOT bigger. The
owner, a guy named Michael I'm told, is just a guy
who loves movies and wants to do his thing. Unlike
UFO, though, they 300 employees, offices in Hong Kong
and Singapore and 4 sound stages around this city.
They have 3 Red 1 cameras, and 3 Arri 35 mm film
cameras and full post production facilities. Also,
unlike Phil at UFO, this guy continues to direct the
movies he wants to direct without Universal putting
the smack down on him. 
Although I was originally thinking I might not be interested in this gig, in lieu of doing my thing, I have to admit the guy is starting to make it sound very enticing. Basically I would be meeting directly with the owner of the company, and director of the film they are currently making. Of course, salary and hours will be important to me, but who knows? I could be getting into this place at a level where I might be able to make some of my own ideas come to light. I wonder if I could convince them to do an anime movie?
On another note, last night I was invited out by a different group of Koreans and they took me to a restaurant called Rain, which is right around the corner from where I live, but I had never seen it. We ate many varieties of Korean food, and drank Soju into the wee hours. The thing is, while we were there a large group of Korean girls came in. They were tall, slim and beautiful. A couple of them I have seen around before. Most of the night they were looking over to me, smiling and waving. As we left, the girls, with big smiles, all waved and said "bye-bye". The guys I was with even asked if I wanted to stay behind with the group of girls while they left. I'm not concerned. I know I'll see them again soon.
