(CNA Reporter Wang Hsin-yu, Taipei, 22nd) The Taipei Film Festival held a press conference today for its ambassador and festival commercial. Actor Tseng Jing-hua said that when he received the invitation, he was so happy and surprised that he stared blankly for 30 seconds. Director Pan Ke-yin revealed that a certain smile in the festival's promotional ad was actually Tseng's off-screen mischievous expression.
Tseng Jing-hua won the Golden Horse Award for Best Supporting Actor for 'A Boy and a Girl'. In addition to serving as this year's ambassador for the Taipei Film Festival, he also collaborated with the film's director, Pan Ke-yin, on the annual promotional video. The two attended a press conference today to share their filming experiences.
Tseng Jing-hua said that upon receiving the invitation, he went 'ah' for 30 seconds before recovering, feeling both happy and surprised. Pan Ke-yin had him recreate his past works in the commercial, including 'Your Name Engraved Herein', 'Detention', 'Eye of the Storm', 'A Boy and a Girl', and 'My Family's Story'.
Furthermore, Tseng Jing-hua revealed that privately, because he didn't want to have an 'Yilan accent', there was a period when he would read newspapers aloud to practice his articulation. 'I didn't want unclear articulation to affect the conveyance of emotions.'
Recently, Tseng Jing-hua collaborated with a brand for a second time, shooting a more masculine 'wet body' commercial. He laughed and said he didn't deliberately train to get a muscular body; rather, he was more nervous during the last shoot because it was done in sub-zero temperatures, and he had to rush to get blown by a heater during breaks.
The 28th Taipei Film Festival will be held from June 26th to July 11th. (Editor: Wu Su-jou) 1150422
