A few years ago ASWS was asked to provide design support for the Hawaii International Film Festival, we collaborated with the HIFF team to re-brand and strengthen their identity and collateral. A few years on, it’s great to see HIFF is stronger then ever with a growing attendance of younger viewers and volunteers. This year I got to take in a few movies and overdose on popcorn. Here’s a short list of my highlights from HIFF 30.
- Beth Gibbons (Portishead) voice in the credit track for the Tempest
- Bill Cunningham’s Photo Documentary
- Getting offered a stash of poke by the DP during ‘To Live & Ride in L.A.’. Thanks for the sweet sticker!
- Seeing even more friends names in credits this year
- Hearing the audience react to ‘How wasted are you?’ in ‘This Film is Broken’
- Getting over Star Wars
- Being the only guy to probably break a wine glass at HIFF this year
- Being mistaken for Taika Waititi (Director of Boy)
Good times. Big mahalo to Sarah, Andy, Sean and Chuck at HIFF for the passes.
