SINGAPORE EVENT (A PHENOMENA)

Post by DAVID GUIVANT » Fri Aug 26, 2005 8:27 am

Hi Danchia,

How are you?
My friend Joris De Smet who used to be the webmaster of BEJEDI.COM

(Starwars Group in Belgium) is interested in writing something and covering the Singaporean event and make it known to the public in Belgium and Europe.

How's that mate? :wink:

He is now taking care of another SW website so he's gonna cover the event if it's ok with you.

Well, not all the Starwars fans in Belgium will turn up but at least they'll follow the event.

I gave him the url of starwars.sg
He'll get in touch with you soon.



Cheers


Dave :P

Hi Dan,

How are you? I will get in touch with Patrice Girod as well from Lucasfilm mag in France. Since they already published something on my short film he might be interested in writing a short article on the
event in Singapore.

LUCASFILM MAG it is mate !!


I'll also contact all the other webmasters friends in the UK and Australia this week end, who knows? It would be interesting for Starwars fans in the Pacific and Europe to take notice of the event.

I'll let you know from their replies as well.


Cheers mate and thanks to the Singapore Fans :o

Hey David ,

Could you send us a scan of the article in the French Lucasfilm magazine about your film, and probably a translation of the text for us ? It would be cool to read what they said about you and your film !

Hi Daniel,

How are you? Did you receive the DVD and CD ROM press kit already?
You could show it to the science center.


here's the part where they mention us:

[certains fan films] s'écartaient du mythe pour se pencher sur son
fondateur, comme le font habilement 'George' et 'George Lucas Legend of the Force'. [...]

A l'issue de la projection, les lumières se sont rallumées
dans la salle, permettant de reconnaître dans la foule les auteurs des
différents courts-métrages, comme David Guivant, un fan venu tout
spécialement de Nouvelle-Calédonie pour présenter son film 'George Lucas
Legend of the Force'. David a vécu ces trois jours avec un plaisir
contagieux, parmi les autres fans venus d'horizons plus ou moins lointins."



Some films like George and George Lucas Legend of the Force tend to fly away from the Star Wars mythology and brilliantly pay tribute to the creator itself.

When the screening was over, the lights came on and the crowd could recognize and cheer different directors such as David Guivant, a fan who specially came all the way from New Caledonia. David had 3 days of intensive fun that spread among other fans that came from far far away.



:wink:


Hope you enjoyed the article. And have fun when you receive the DVDs.


Cheers.

OOPS !! :?

Forgot to mention the article is on page 5 in the Lucasfilm Mag issue 54.
Unfortunately I am unable to scan it for you since my 2 free copies will arrive in 2 weeks time only. :x


I wish I had lightspeed.



Cheers :wink:

Many thanks for promoting the Star Wars Exhibition in Singapore for us, David ! Really appreciate it ! :)

I spoke to Singapore Science Centre regarding the screening of Legend of the Force. They have not seen it yet as they could not download it from your site. I have managed to download it, and will burn it on a CDrom to pass to the Science Centre officials. Hope they like the film ! :D

No worries mate. The French Rebellegion , The LCF and French 501st have been informed.

I also e-mailed Mick from Mousedroid.com, Jim from jedinet.com, and other websites as well. :wink:

Well most of them think Singapore is in China :lol:

They have never travelled outside of Europe except for Celebration III in Indianapolis but they'll be happy once I send them photos of the event.


I actually sent you a DVD of the French CONVENTION , my short film is in there. There is also a press kit included.

Happens, I also send stuff to Singapore it takes 2 weeks to arrive.
Sorry it takes that long due to the distance between Singapore and New Caledonia.


Do you have a DVD burner? You could burn a copy for the science center once they arrive in your letter box.


Cheers.

Hi Daniel,

Check out the news of the Singapore event on anakinweb.com


http://site.anakinweb.com/actualites_ev ... n4708.html


This site is interesting as they are going to launch a web TV that features fanfilms. So they 'd be one of the sites covering the Singapore Event once I send them photos.


And check out LIGHTSABRE.CO.UK

They also posted some news as well.
The Singapore Knews is spreading along pretty well mate. I am still waiting for the American sites to post their news.


Cheers and have fun Daniel.
