Director Statement
For many years, I have had the great opportunity of working with students in the Parkview Music Club to create short films. We typically make 1 film per year, and during that time, the students learn a great deal about the filmmaking process. During production, the children have recording sessions for dialogue and singing, and get to shoot on location with a film crew. Upon completion, we release the film and the children get to see their hard work pay off.
Our latest short film is a tribute to the James Bond Film Series called “In The Blink Of An Eye: A James Bond Film”, which is a tribute to decades of Bond films, and on this project we’ve been blessed to have a cameo in our film by George Lazenby, who played 007 in “On Her Majesty’s Secret Service”. Thank you so much for taking time to watch and consider our film!

This script is a greatly structured story about the challenges of someone who isn’t familiar with her culture and is trying to integrate herself into it. Dealing with that while also being appointed CEO makes for a story with high stakes. Mixing the chaebol culture with an Americanized protagonist makes the story relatable and accessible for those who are unfamiliar.
