The epic “Beauty and the Geek” parody of 2007 and the “TWN101” video of 2008 began a tradition within the TASA cabinet to create funny film shorts that promote TASA and/or relate to the Taiwanese American identity. Making videos not only allowed us to bond and create lasting memories as a group, but also allowed us more opportunities to meet other people (nothing starts off a conversation better than “Hey, weren’t you the LARPER guy?”)
So with so many videos attributed to TASA cabinet, we’ve decided that it’s high time to include the rest of our members! It doesn’t matter whether you’re directing, scriptwriting, acting, editing, or watching the finished product – we encourage everyone to be involved, have fun, and to create lasting bonds and memories with TASA.
