They each saw a need for Asian Pacific Americans in the industry to have a place where they could regularly connect and support each other both personally and professionally. The first CAPE gathering started as a handful of friends who met in the back of a Chinese restaurant -- long before Asians were nominated for Oscars (or even won them). It was a time just before the Hong Kong cinema craze and the infusion of martial arts to wake up the flagging action genre. It was a transitional period from the late 1980's when indie pioneers like Wayne Wang (DIM SUM, EAT A BOWL OF TEA) and Steven Okazaki (UNFINISHED BUSINESS, the Oscar-winning DAYS OF WAITING) were punching through decades of media stereotypes. Hollywood had yet to grasp that Asian Americans were about to become a significant force in the world's most influential cultural industry. Over the years, CAPE has grown considerably from its humble beginnings and helped numerous Asian Pacific Americans foster their careers in the entertainment industry. We now boast an e-membership of over 3000 people and offer multiple educational programs and panels sponsored by leading entertainment companies to continually develop and grow our membership. We provide opportunities for emerging and established actors, writers, directors, producers, agents, and executives, offering the tools that all of us need to excel in a highly competitive industry. We give voice to Asian Pacific Americans artists and build bridges between Hollywood and the national cinemas of China, India, Korea, Japan, Taiwan, the Philippines, and many others. But most of all, CAPE continues the mission of our founders to create a community where positive, like-minded people can support each other both personally and professionally -- and continue advancing diversity in entertainment.
