Acclaimed Chinese action choreographer and director Tony Ching (aka Ching Siu-Tung) will examine his pioneering style of cinematic martial arts for films such as Hero (2002), the BAFTA-nominated House of Flying Daggers (2004), and The Sorcerer and the White Snake (2011). The event will also highlight his career as a director, during which he has aided the development of the action-fantasy genre of Chinese filmmaking with A Chinese Ghost Story (1987). Ching was also the chief action choreographer for the Opening Ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. The event is in partnership with Asian Film Awards Academy (AFA Academy), financially supported by Create Hong Kong and Hong Kong Film Development Fund.
