Nisei Legacy

 Last Friday I was priveliedged to be asked to help out filming the Go For Broke Stamp unveiling at the Japanese American National Museum.  One of the founding members of the group of three ladies was the Miyoshi next door neighbor Chiz Ohira.  She passed before the stamp was issued.  

You can view the program and learn about the stamp at this link:  https://niseistamp.org. 

Be aware that the program is 2 hrs. in length. June Kuramoto and Kimo Cornwell of Hiroshima plays a Thousand Cranes at the end.

I am Camera #2.  So if you see the video shake, it's the equipment, not the operator accidentally hitting the tripod.  It was a great learning experience as a friend took me through the whole video through a zoom meeting for 3 hours, showing me the ins and outs of Live Action Camera 101.  Or, these are the things you did wrong and can improve upon.  Did I mention that I had fun? And, as one of the younger guys. I got to crawl amongst the tiered theater seating laying cable.
