This week, I’m at the D6 conference in Carslbad, California. During the past few months, I’ve been configuring and building a server setup for the conference to hold our photos and videos. Without further ado, behold the Mossborg!

You can follow up on the great speaker sessions we’ll be having on the D6 Conference Highlights website!

A quick photo from our recent film shoot down in Southern California with Rae’s cousin and Li Jing:

Rae and I are traveling down to Southern California and the East Coast. We’ll be meeting with professors at UC Irvine, Connecticut College, and Brown University. Plus, I’ll be attending and working at the D6 Conference in Carlsbad. It’s been a very busy past few weeks, with weekends taken up completely with filming and my weekdays full with film planning and my consulting work. I’ve entered the home stretch, but these next three weeks are going to be pretty tough!

Following the great presentation by Gary Cruz on portable strobe photography, the monthly assignment for June will be FLASH!

At Vista Point, we filmed scenes of Li Jing as Qiu Jin practicing Tai Chi and reading by a tree, mirroring those we shot in April with Melissa as Young Qiu Jin. The following day, we were at Berkeley’s Tilden Park for the Chinese Women’s Army. We had 34 extras for the army scene, all dressed in black kung fu uniforms. Led by Li Jing, the troops were drilled in wushu basics and taught female empowerment.

We got some great footage and some wonderful photographs, which you can see below. Thanks go out to Eric, JP, Edna and Erik, and Petrice for organizing and helping out with the shoot. Finally, big shout out to the members of the Chinese Women’s Army. You all did a fantastic job, and we couldn’t have pulled it off without you!
