HELLO

Yuan [Yu-On] Pan is a second year from John Muir College majoring in Media with emphasis in film. He was born on July 20th, 1990 and grew up in Irvine, California, he now plans to switch from third to first person narration because I think its easier this way. I've been interested in all things visual for as long as I can recall. As a young child, my interests were first expressed through the elementary act of two-dimensional art-making: drawing. However, as I grew up I came to discover many more creative outlets to explore my visual interests; from elementary school to high school, I went through several different (and constantly changing) phases of drawing, painting, designing, crafting, and assembling subjects and objects of all sorts. By the time I was 16, I was severely confused as to what exactly my professional interest was to be... and then along came a camera. Not long after I started to play with photography, I developed a passion for combining images and sound over time (video). Since then I have stuck with film as my expressive medium of choice; however my past obsessions for drawing/painting, designing, crafting/assembling--the conceiving an idea and very hands-on act of carrying it out and bringing it to reality--still very much remains in me. Thus, although my primary interests are in film, I do intend to incorporate the designer/craftsman side of me into my video work. However, throughout my childhood explorations I never really ventured into the realm of electronics--a realm of boundless potential that I feel I can not go on any longer without exploring. I hold a lot of excitement for this class and familiarizing myself with electronics because I believe it will broaden my creative abilities and possibilities in turning ideas into reality; and this in turn will broaden my capabilities and capacity in filmmaking.
