So I was woken up last week by Michael Goi, president of the American Society of Cinematographers. I unfortunately suspect that I was a little groggy, and when I first picked up I thought it was the producer I was to meet at around noon that day (this producer also has a 310 number). The conversation went something like this:
".......Hello?"
"Hi! Is this... Is it 'Simon Boa', or 'Boa Simon'?"
"Um, Boa Simon."
"Great. Hi Boa, this is Michael Goi, president of the American Society of Cinematographers."
*pause*
".......Hi! Hi, Michael!"
He was calling to let me know that my work on Malachi Rempen's "La Nina del Desierto" was being recognized with an Honorable Mention for the ASC's Undergraduate Heritage Award at this year's 24th ASC Awards. Awesome!
My official invitation to the event came soon after; I think I'll go with meat for my dinner. I wish Jenny could come; anyone want to help with a donation toward her $350 ticket?UPDATE: An article on the ASC website: ASC Names Student Cinematography Winners
