After 19 days across Australia - coming home to $40 in the bank, rushing off to work inthe country NSW region for two months to replenish the funds and now, as I write this, sitting in Mc Donalds Cafe in Melbourne leeching wifi internet setting up all my media equipment - I wonder how the heck did I let one project get so far.
It started out as a "what if?" idea that sprawled into a network of other ideas that grouped together as a crazy drive to see if a nobody like me can meet one of the world's most iconic action superstar - Jackie Chan.
I haven't met him yet. But boy...have I bumped into a host of extraordinary people who have! Seriously! The country of Australia is enriched with some exciting people from stuntspeople, academics, die hard fans, martial artists etc... who have contributed to my project via their interviews and also great support on my online initiatives (Redbubble & Fundbreak).
Now, I'm on a tight deadline - with only 9 days left, I've wrapped up my sideline job in Coffs Harbour, train tripped it back to Sydney to bid my parents farewell (and get the washing done) and flew to Melbourne for the final batch of interviews (
Richard Norton,
Chris Pang &
Daniel Whyte) and film shoot. Then I'll be heading back to Sydney, only to prepare for my road trip to Canberra to score an interview with
Benny The Jet.
I will then return to Sydney (wash and pack the clothes) and fly out to Hong Kong!
Stay tune....the adventure continues....
With a little over 24 hours till I head to Hong Kong, I've finally had the time to tweak up my intern Thuy Nguyen video edit of the Quest for Jackie Chan! Urban Action Film launch back in August this year.
