Current Mood: impressed

Now for the remaining half.

Current Music: Dandelion Unplugged (Kokia)

A long overdue tribute to Ritsuko Okazaki, who passed away when I was 13. Ritz was one of my earliest musical influences, and the lyrics of "For Fruits Basket" remain a very powerful inspiration to me. The Chinese lyrics are my transliteration; some of the English is mine and the rest are the same as in the Laura Bailey dub. The "ba ba ba ba"s in the end are Ritz's original vocals. I still miss her every time I hear her voice...

Current Mood: missing Ritz Okazaki

I've been meaning to do that since... 8th grade. xD Bonus point for anyone with dog ears who can pick up the keening in the background (which would be me vocalizing an octave above my harmony).

Moving on to more important things....

I've conducted my first two interviews for my Chinese Media term project. The first one was this past Thursday. I interviewed a junior theatre major with a focus on screenwriting. He went on for two hours, but he was very interesting (having studied a huge spectrum of Chinese movies), and the weather was gorgeous (we did the interview outside). This is the only face-to-face interview I'll be recording. Last night, I interviewed

mengxia over the phone. It was wonderful talking to her again after so long. She had a lot of awesome insight to offer regarding the budding genre of horror in China and the importance of female roles and native culture in the direction of future films. Audio was tougher to pick up off speaker phone, but I think editing will be manageable.

Well, so far so good! I look forward to talking with more of you who have volunteered next week. And if I don't end up contacting you for a recorded interview, I hope you won't mind me asking about your experience with Chinese film in writing. :]

Current Mood: accomplished
