SSFF & ASIA will be in its 23rd edition next year & as an international short film festival, have focused on developing the new genre of "music x film"style of filmmaking through our worldwide network of young filmmakers, production companies & actors while expanding our Music Shorts & Music Video competitions.
AMUSE has not only produced entertainment content in Japan, but has also invested in the Broadway musical "Kinky Boots," which was nominated in 12 categories at the 67th Tony Awards & won six awards, including the Best Musical Award & brought to Japan the gospel musical "MAMA, I WANT TO SING" in the past. AMUSE has invested, produced & brought to Japan high-quality international entertainment.
By combining our organizations, we will gather innovative and unique projects & ideas from creators worldwide & develop those projects as entertainment both in Japan and abroad. We would greatly appreciate your cooperation with publicity for this project.
SSFF & ASIA & the AMUSE held a post-festival conference with the winning author of the 1st competition, Bradley Porter, for his pitch "Sleep Singing," as well as the other finalists of the competition & we are moving forward with making it into a short film.
"I love musicals. For me, musicals are the purest form of cinema. By being selected for this project, I have come one step closer to realizing my dream of making a short film & coming to Japan. I'm really looking forward to it!" - Bradley Porter
