Pauline Chan A Pearl In Production
In The Pacific Region Joins APSA
|
Pauline Chan (pictured above) is appointed to the Advisory Board for the Asia Pacific Screen Awards. Chan has collaborated on TV and feature films as Director and Producer with Japan, Hong Kong, Thailand, and American in joint venture in the past two decades. Chan made history in 1996 as the first Asian Australian to be appointed by the Governor General as a Commissioner of the Australian Film Commission. Her work has won 15 international awards and recognition including best films and best director awards, and New York Times Critics’ Pick for 33 Postcards during its USA release. In 2011, Chan produced the first two official co-productions with China’s HengDian Studio: Dragon Pearl and 33 Postcards (the latter Chan also directed and co-wrote). In 2016-17, Chan was the Australian Producer for two Chinese TV drama series, Lost in KunLun and Butterflies across the Sea, and Executive Producer of the Australian thriller The Gateway. Chan is slated to produce and direct her third China-Australia co-production in 2018. Commenting on Chan’s appointment APSA Chair Michael Hawkins said: “Pauline Chan is highly credentialed – an experienced filmmaker, arts administrator and internationally acclaimed figure in the global film industry. Her extensive career will bring an enormous wealth of knowledge to that which already exists on the APSA Advisory Board. As we enter APSA’s second decade, we welcome Chan’s fresh input.”
