Set up and run by Hieu Chau who is also Entertainment Editor for Meld Magazine and a contributor for Japan Cinema and Modern Korean Cinema.
Filmed in Ether has been running since the end of 2014, it's got news, reviews and feature articles on Asian Cinema with the accent of 'in Australia'.
"Based in Australia, the website also serves as a news resource on Asian films and film festivals screening throughout the country."
I've got a couple of reviews up
The Wind Rises by Hayao Miyazaki (his swan song animation)
"The Wind Rises is certainly no My Neighbor Totoro, nor a Kiki’s Delivery Service and certainly not a Ponyo but it nevertheless is unmistakably a Miyazaki picture. The Wind Rises is much more a biography, albeit a fictionalised one, and it tells the story of a famous man whose achievements had a dramatic effect on the world." read more
Waves by Don Frasco (an indie film from the Philippines)
"Waves are the only physical manifestation of energy on this planet, ask any surfer. You can see the energy, you can feel the energy, you can ride the energy – waves are amazing. Think about it, they are our access to understanding a phenomena that drives our very existence. They let us grasp the intangible." read more
I'm hoping to contribute more on a regular basis but regardless this is a pretty neat site to keep up with Asian cinema and film happenings in Australia. Check it out.
