The AAFilmLab has completed its Chinatown Youth Mentoring Program along with MOCA and APEX. Two of our members were mentors for high school students and had the great pleasure of helping them create their very own film to be included in MOCA's Chinatown Online Film channel on YouTube. The AAFilmLab is incredibly proud to have been part of such an inspiring experience.

MOCA will be opening its doors with an event this July 1st, 2009 showcasing ten short films about Chinatown made by slightly more experienced Directors:
The Guy with the Cigarette directed by Miguel Arteta
Church Basement Bomb Shelter directed by Patty Chang
New York Night Scene directed by Jem Cohen
Kiwi Lotion directed by Cary Fukunaga
I Can’t Wait directed by So Yong Kim & Bradley Rust Gray
