Filmchitecture: The Making of Universal Studios Japan Area 3 (Part 3 of 5)

http://felixpire.com One of the reports to Universal by the team creating Universal Studios Japan ended up being a creative one. The assignment to all of the Universal Creative Department was to create an informative presentation introducing the designers, ride architects, and each area of the park. I proposed the idea of my writing and directing a corporate video, to my boss, Michael Harrington, and he gave it the green light. Completely contrary to his "evil" character here, he was a superlative, friendly boss who gave me the opportunity to play around with a camera, dress up non-actors in costumes, and roam around Universal Studios Hollywood back lot shooting wherever I pleased... Heaven... The short was quite a hit, and finally, through means we couldn't have dreamed of then ~ I get to share it! ... Enjoy! (http://www.felixpire.com)

How exciting - I just had dinner with Cynthia Hope, who now lives in Kona, and she told me about this video. Loved seeing her in this different mode.
