SANQING MOUNTAINS, Shangrao, China - Bahamian photographer and journalist Eric Rose was a panelist at the recent Beijing International Micro-Film Festival "Young Directors in Hollywood" training camp programme, held in the scenic Sanqing Mountain area of Shangrao, the People's Republic of China.
Mr. Rose, who is a Senior Information Officer in the Bahamas Information Services. encouraged the young directors to develop their story ideas and to bring the visual aspects of their micro-films up to the standard that would best represent their final vision of their product. He also promoted the appeal of The Bahamas as a possible partner for future projects, including as a filming location and for entering their films into Bahamian film festivals, all of which could be done through contacting The Bahamas Embassy and Ministry of Tourism representative in Beijing for more information.
