THE REAL SHAOLIN

The Real Shaolin is an excellent documentary about four people who go to the Shaolin Temple in China to study Kung Fu. You can read all about it on the site.

I just wanted to mention a couple things. First off, it is a really good documentary that I hope gets bought for distribution. It showed at the Toronto Film Festival last week and was loved by the audiences. Second, I wanted to mention that I cut the trailer for this documentary. Just so you can see something I worked on...while waiting for the last series to come out.

Plus I needed to blog about something...I have been lax of late.

Thank you Alex...nice working with you too. And it is a great film.

Nasos...I used music that was in the film, and that music was composed specifically for the film. But, for what it is worth, it is called "Zhu Intro-instrumental." Zhu is one of the four characters.

Some of the moves those guys did in the trailer are just, wow. This is an example of why I love documentaries because truth can be more captivating than fiction.
