April 4, 2013 at 5:15 pmHello,
There are many Premiere people lurking on these forums. We poke our heads out every once in a while when we aren’t cranking out all the good stuff 😉 Many of us will be at NAB so come out and say hi.
Cheers
Dave

Because this forum, like most, is west-centric. Their films haven’t made it into the standard Hollywood-distribution circuit. So they are largely unknown.

I agree. And the DNx thing is huge for me. Means I can AFF between MC and Pr like nobody’s business.

OK, but you posted their work and a link to what they had to say on Apple’s site now let’s see if it changes.

April 4, 2013 at 5:41 pmTsui Hark is a f**king legend. One of the few guys who’s still pushing the envelope in Asian cinema. Look him up, some of his stuff is insane. That Time and Tide shot were they threw film cameras and stuntment down the skyscraper is pretty much representative of his approach to film making – a breathless, irreverent, imaginative, indie approach to what are pretty big budget Hong Kong films.
He’s looking way too dignified for my liking in that photo though, I remember him scruffy and wild eyed setting up an action shot as a action director (in the behind the scenes of some martial arts movie) where the hero was going to crash into a small underground tunnel where he’d continue to kick ass while the tunnel collapsed around them. All real, no cg. I think it was a Jet Li film from back in the day, but not sure.
Basically, my point is, don’t dismiss him or his body of work.

The amount of respect they get”
I’m not a kung fu movie fan, so I’m not particularly drawn to their movies, but I certainly don’t disrespect them.
Does this have something to do with the “Cold Mountain moment” meme? Whoa–look at the Coen Bros. using Pr, but nobody’s all who-ha about X and these guys? I think the whole “Cold Mountain” thing as a mark of “software on the rise to some sort of heavenly dominance” is a little over-done. As Tim beautifully pointed out in another recent post, things have changed greatly since Cold Mountain clawed its way into existence.

April 4, 2013 at 5:51 pmhey I’m not – I never mentioned him. I went for the canadian newspaper gag is all – nice little kick in the nuts for FCPX on the day the Coen brothers announce for PPro is all.
I watched the trailer – his stuff looks incredible.

that sounds pure mental.
