In his closing ceremony speech, Dr. Wilfred WONG, GBM, GBS, JP, Chairman of the Asian Film Awards Academy, said that the International Film Camp’s establishment came from the belief that good film productions require the cultivation of talents, and that the art of film can only persevere through the passing of the torch. At the award ceremony, Dr. Wong encouraged students to continue their filmmaking path and to keep exploring. With the Film Camp bringing together people from all across Asia, Dr. Wong hopes that everyone can inspire each other, open up new possibilities, and build up new social networks that foster mutual cooperation. Dr. Wong added that the AFAA has brought together the Asian film industry over the past 17 editions of its award ceremony, creating a new path for cinema. Moreover, the Hong Kong Film Development Fund’s financial support of about a dozen Hong Kong films per year have fostered several successful directors, including Sunny Chan, Jack Ng and Norris Wong, all of whom were in attendance. Dr. Wong said to students, “I hope that their present will be your future. Take this opportunity to boldly create a cinematic world with your passion.” Finally, Dr. Wong thanked the Hong Kong SAR government, the Macau SAR government and Sands China Ltd. He promised to review the outcome of the inaugural edition and continue to promote the development of films. Finally, Dr. Wong expressed his hope that the event’s supporters and partners will continue this cinematic journey with him.
