An Artist/Designer in the Art Industry to interview (Group Work)

Sng Wee Jie
Our group decided that we all should have 1 person each that we would like to interview for our future assignment. All we had to do was to pick one person and have our research done on them. For me, I've chosen James Wan.


James Wan is an Australian film producer, screenwriter and film director from Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia. He is widely known for directing Saw and creating Billy The Puppet. James is also known for producing the latest horror film Annabelle.

As of August 2014, he is direct the next biggest movie Fast & Furious 7, which is due to release on 2015.

To me, he made such an impact to the society of filming because it shows us that even though you're from somewhere which is not really recognized internationally you can still make it and chase your dream. Because of his works, it makes me think that anything is possible.

Some Questions to be Ask

1. What made you want to work in the filming industry?
2. What did it felt like when your first feature length film "Stygian" won "Best Guerrilla" Films at Melbourne Underground Film Festival (MUFF) in 2000?

3. What if one of the films you directed or produced did not receive any positive feedbacks or comments from the society but instead you keep getting negative feedbacks and probably even get bash by the society. Would you just give up on filming?

4. What did it felt like when "The Conjuring" won the "Fangoria Chainsaw Awards"?

5. If you have never entered the filming industry, where do you think you will be and what do you think you'll be doing?
