Hire locally and train your employees to meet global standards. Following the example of WETA in New Zealand, GB Hajim and friends are building a film industry from the ground up. Come see what is being done on the Big Island to create a unique production niche while developing the local production community through internships. GB Hajim is an award-winning independent filmmaker living on the Big Island. Since 1995, he has been directing, shooting, and editing Hawaiian language dramas, animations, and educational shorts. He has produced over 100 projects ranging from the many 15-second long Hawaiian Word of the Day spots on KITV to feature length dramas and documentaries. Currently, Hajim is working on a series of science-fiction animated features. He has dedicated himself to making the process as important as the product and has been working with local schools to find talented artists to train in animation. In 2005, he won an INDE Award for Inspiring and Educating Hawai&amp;#699;i's Youth. </div> http://www.hawaii.edu/calendar/hcc/2009/07/12/10177.html Sun, 12 Jul 2009 10:30:00 -1000 2009-07-12 10:30:00 2009-07-12 11:45:00 Art Department Auditorium <div class="start">July 12, 2009, 10:30 am</div> <div class="location">Art Department Auditorium</div> <div class="descr">A Karate demonstration by Hawaii Karate Kenkyukai</div>
