1 minute trailer - "Filipinos get some"

inwood art works podcast interview

photos and videos from the shoot 20 september 2021

We had a great day shooting "Asian PersuAsian" at Fort Tryon Park, New York City, Saturday September 11. The film, the 2020 recipient of the Inwood Artworks Film Grant,  is about a public marriage proposal gone haywire. It features an all Filipino/American cast. The weather was perfect and we had the Abby's Lawn area to ourselves. We started at 8:30am, had a 30 minute break at 1pm and wrapped up at 6:15pm.

I will have a new title to replace "Asian PersuAsian."  Soon I'll set up a fundraiser to help cover some additional expenses. Overall it was a successful day shooting.  I'll be making a trailer once I see all the footage, with original songs by Ted Reyes.
