Kainoa Rudolfo (@coachkainoa) on why Hawaiʻi filmmakers keep doing 48 and 72 hour challenges, and how a short deadline makes you a better filmmaker.

Tonight is the @hifilmmakers 72 Hour Film Challenge showcase, 5:00 to 7:00 pm at the Doris Duke Theatre. Brian is one of this year's judges. If tickets are still available, they're through the Honolulu Museum of Art. Come out and support local filmmakers.

Three days to make a film. That's the Hawaiʻi Filmmakers Collective 72 Hour Film Challenge.

Kainoa Rudolfo (@coachkainoa), co-founder of @hifilmmakers, on why the screening is his favorite night of the year: a full theater clapping, laughing and crying together over art that was made in three days.

This year's films screen this Sunday, September 27, 5:00 to 7:00 pm at the Doris Duke Theatre. Brian is one of this year's judges, so come out and support local filmmakers. Tickets are through the Honolulu Museum of Art and the night tends to sell out, so grab yours early.

How the Hawaiʻi Filmmakers Collective got started, from one of the people who started it.

Kainoa Rudolfo (@coachkainoa) on why he and a few friends stopped waiting for someone to hand them experience and built a group that makes each other's films. If you're trying to get your first credits here, @hifilmmakers is worth knowing.

On this date in 1931, a night in Honolulu set in motion events that would change the lives of five young men and their families.

The five were accused and brought to trial. The jury reached no verdict. Before a second trial could take place, Joseph “Kalani” Kahahawai was abducted and killed on January 8, 1932.

We share this history with care for Kalani, for the other four men, and for the families who have carried its weight. Ala Moana Boys tells part of the story from the perspective of the five accused men. Today, we remember Kalani as a person, not just a name in a case.

The PEAK x @televisionacademyfoundation’s AAPI Affinity Group Networking Mixer was a huge milestone for our Fellows! We celebrated the end of this year’s Producer & Executive Fellowship with a big mixer, which allowed our cohort the chance to connect with other working professionals in entertainment. From showrunners to executives to producers to stunt professionals to editors - it was an amazingly representative event that allowed the PEAK fellows the chance to exercise their networking skills. In a wonderful turn, past fellows from our previous fellowships were able to attend - including our Writer Fellows! A big success and a great way to kickoff summer!

We always try to remember and honor that TV and Film are collaborative, and no one rises to the top alone. So recognition and a huge mahalo are due to our fellowship sponsor and partner, @taaforg, for helping create space for the next generation of Pasifika professionals, to the Television Academy for hosting and for the TV Academy Governors and Affinity Group Chairs that came, to the professionals who showed up and offered mentorship and advice, and to the extended Pasifika community that continues to uplift each other!
