I returned from work after 30 hours of shooting documentary film.

Some might say it is not a documentary, or a movie. It is actually more like a real documentary about Japanese female contemporary dancer based in Toronto. We filmed twenty-four straight hours in the morning from 10AM Friday until 10AM Saturday capturing all her activities over the day.

Twenty-four hours straight shoot,
no creative story-telling, narrative, or staging,
non-fictional, “slice of life” factual works of art.
This is a kind of documentaries I really wanted to make for a long time and now my dream had come true. To all of my crew, thanks for all the hard work, commitment and for going along for the ride. You guys are the best!

the reason why i bought a bunch of books today is because it’s on sale, buy 3 get 4th free. The World Biggest Bookstore at Dundas is no longer the biggest, but the store has no leaking -i don’t need a big bathtub but it should not be leaking.

watched Bill Cunningham New York at Bloor cinema. a heart warming, interesting and sometimes hilarious documentary about 80+ New York Times photographer.
