We usually wait until a film’s festival run has real momentum before sharing BTS — and Stand In kept collecting selections and wins. 🏆 So here’s our (late but proud) shout-out. Grateful that part of Stand In (2024) was filmed at Upperland Studio in Richmond, BC — mixing LED virtual production looks (Tokyo night / cityscape vibes) with practical studio locations. Smooth setup, cinematic atmosphere, and a great crew vibe all around. Big love to the team: Producers: @thisismearies @dylan.macgregor Cast: @gabriel__prevost @ryomishima1991 Director/Writer: @yamawaki.hiromu Cinematography: @budsaurus Congrats again — excited to see where the film goes next. 🙌 #UpperlandStudio #VancouverFilm #RichmondBC #VirtualProduction #LEDWall #TokyoNight #Cityscape #CinematicLighting #IndieFilm #ShortFilm #FilmFestival #BehindTheScenes #FilmProduction

It’s been a long time since I last posted, so I’m glad I’m able to have it be a long-overdue headshot/portrait taken by @brianvanwyk at @filmablesociety for @viffest ! Also thanks to @filmboldly , @geoffreymanton & @sebastiengalina for allowing these awesome portrait sessions and events to happen! It was so lovely to finally get a chance to get my own photo done which I usually never do. #makeitfilmable #VIFF2025

Doing a show call on a feature is really quite an experience. The crew and cast you work with seem almost like family, and the crew on this one made it incredible to work on! Thank you @jeromeoyoo for having me, and to @jaryllim.dp to let me pull on some fun and crazy shit lol. Onto more projects! Can't wait to see what each and every one of these people on the show do in the future! Also, sorry to others I wanted to tag, IG is dumb...
