Celina Jade on Shooting Legendary Assassin MV

I was so honored to have Poon Yiu Ming direct my video, he is also the director of photography for 狼牙 Legendary Assassin. This guy truly is a perfectionist, he has a wonderful eye for capturing beauty and with his help and an amazing crew. I believe (fingers crossed) the Music Video will be a success! Everything was planned to the most minute detail, the MV was shot in both film as well as high def.

They had all kinds of equipment, I don't know the names to many of them, but it certainly felt like a Hollywood production with the cranes and everything. It was amazing to see everyone cooperate for the sake of the art of filming, rather than being solely commercially driven (which I am told happens way too often nowadays). Everyone got along perfectly, we hired out a tram for one of the scenes and cruising around Hong Kong was simply beautiful, albeit melancholic along the lyrics to the song...

You'll all be happy to find out Wu Jing also makes a special guest appearance in the video, I was sooooo ecstatic to find out he was willing to do this for me. I wouldn't even be here if it weren't for his advice and guidance through our training and shooting of the Legendary Assassin.

I have all the respect for this guy and I whole-heartedly believe he will become successful internationally in a short span of time. The entertainment industry is lucky to have such a wonderful, intelligent, down-to-earth and driven guy like him. He has a big heart, and I'm proud to have met him.

Paco Wong and Syllina Tong, my two managers are also fantastic, the decision to work with them, is my wisest decision in a long time, they are open-minded, kind hearted, business savvy, managers. There would also not be a Celina Jade without the faith they have in me.

You know, as a Eurasian girl in an Asian market, there is a lot of doubt about the chances of success, but I don't feel that doubt at all with Paco and Syllina, they believe in me, and give me space to develop my artistic capabilities. I do believe, with them, we can go far. The music video/ film would not even be there if it weren't for them. I am eternally grateful in this aspect too.

PS. Paco has more courage than anyone I know, he is a leader and not a follower, I admire and respect him for this, he deserves every bit of success since he truly earns it!
