My current Project Title:
When I Go
About me - current project:
On December 7th, 1985, Jeff Fong was brought into this world by his Italian mother, Lorna. Jeff’s Chinese father, Dexter, was standing by in full support of this birth.
Some say, Jeff sprouted out of the womb with a tennis racket in his left hand and a small roll of black and white film in his right… but this is not certain.
Jeff grew for approximately ten years, and in those years, learned how to become exceptionally shy, and particularly good at creating stories for his ninja turtles to step into. As a way to make himself feel cool, Jeff began typing these plotless stories on his father’s typewriter. Though this only lasted a few days, it inspired Jeff to continue writing, but with pen and paper.
At the prime age of sixteen, Jeff sat in a vacant movie theater with a small popcorn and a revelation. As he sat there, staring at the empty screen, he realized that people pay to sit and watch a filmmaker’s story, like a willing hostage. “This is how I can share all my stories with the world!” Jeff thought. That is when an animated light bulb popped up next to Jeff’s head, whispering into his ear, telling him that he would make films until the end of his days, and Jeff agreed.
Teleport to present day and you will find Jeff amidst production on his 5th short film, a drama about letting go of a balloon. One might also find Jeff waiting by his computer, refreshing his email every 5 minutes to see if any festival will accept his first feature film, Ru,” a story about a kind assassin, into their competition.
Jeff likes how nice he is, and likes finding other nice people to be friends with. He is good at puzzles, guitar, and is an NCAA national tennis champion.
If you are nice, you should be friends with Jeff, and then the world will be a better place.
