24 Herbs Video Shoot

When hanging out with Josie, Conroy, Phat and Alex the other night, Conroy was nice enough to invite me to a video shoot for his band 24 Herbs. The shoot for the song "Respect Tou PK" (I'm not telling what that translates to!) took place in local watering hole Yumla. The shoot went on for much longer than expected, but there was free beer and pizza for everyone. What better way to keep the extras hyped, right?


In between shots, Brandon (aka Ghost Style, in the white shirt) kept cracking jokes in English and Cantonese.


Alex, the director, did all the camerawork himself, and this shoulder mounted beast must have weighed a ton.



Roy Cheung, Conroy and Alex share a laugh between shots.


Ryan (left) is slightly embarrassed as Phat, Brian, Jimmy and the whole place all sing Happy Birthday to him.


Two more new friends I've made during my short stay in Hong Kong, Sara and Raul. They are both from Barcelona, and Raul is just as big a fan of Hong Kong film as I am. Needless to say, we were talking non-stop. Props to Raul for spotting Roy Cheung first. He was like, "look at that guy with the ponytail. Does he look familiar?" I was pessimistic and said, "There's no way that's Roy Cheung." Luckily, Raul was right. Good eye!

Jason, you are living a charmed life, my friend.

Well it's about time, I have to say! It sure as hell beats sitting in my apartment watching bootleg DVDs from ebay.
