My First Trip to Taiwan was actually for work :)

Adam B C in Taipei

On a normal Wednesday, I received a Wechat message from my Starz agency, that said, do you have a visa to visit to Taiwan. I really thought it was a joke; I was wrong. One week later I was on my way to Taipei. I think I was very lucky to have landed this role. The Director Kung, reenlisted me from a Urumqi job I did in September. So I arrive on set and OMG it was the same director. This was no coincident, he hunted me down for this role. Like I said lucky, but this job was by no means easy. I had to be ready for wet weather strolling on the cold beach, standing tall in front of many spectators and perform according to the directors specifications with my own little twist. Here is how the day shoot unfolded.

What a huge experience. I learn so much about on the scene ethics and performing during all types of weather and environments. It was tough and I will keep my efforts at the highest level for I believe this is just the beginning, there will be many more sets I will share with you all, Thanks for Visiting. Hard work does pay of, and believing is really all we can do. Believe patiently enough and work hard in the cold on zero fuel and you just may realize your dream. This is what i have dedicated my life to do, becoming a Actor and an instrument of society no matter what country I am in. Adam BC Reporting, out.
