愛‧打卡，原本是一套二十分鐘的英語短片，於2013年在新加坡，香港和美國放映。由

­於短片獲得不同觀眾及香港媒體的廣泛關注，製作團隊決定將短片拍成一部廣東話的電影，­並稱它為一個”半獨立、半商業”的項目。這部電影是圍繞各地的社交網絡和手機的故事，­帶出現今科技對我們日常生活的好處，以及過份依賴網絡資訊甚至成癮而產生的各種問題。­這套電影同時亦描述香港與新加坡的都市問題及文化。

我們於INDIEGOGO籌集資金

有14多天的時間來籌集資金篇這個獨立電影項目。

〈愛‧ 打卡〉是一部粵語的電影，並有英語和中文字幕。 目標是能發佈於香港, 東南亞和美國。 我們不只是拍一部電影, 而是給予在香港, 新加坡和世界不同地方的電影愛好者一點另類的娛樂。這電影內隱藏了喜劇, 愛情故事, 懸疑劇情和社會評論，也有令觀眾喜愛的角色，例如，沉溺於社交網絡上的Sharon， 爽直港女Joan和害羞而神秘的Ryan。 這電影會改變你對香港電影的看法， 亦因此需要你的支持。

通過Indiegogo的活動, 我們需要籌集50,000美元去實現這個夢想。 請支持我們！ 我們對任何的款項都十分感激。您們給我們的款項和支持是很重要的。

這14天都對我們非常重要。希望能盡快看到您的名字在我們的活動上。

On Saturday, April 13, 2013, TEDxHappyValley (#TEDxHV) brought together eleven inspirational speakers from around the world to share personal stories of “Radical Resilience”.  Harnessing the power of storytelling, these eleven voices embodied the incredible spirit, creativity, ingenuity, compassion and courage of human potential at its best.  In the face of adversity or confronted by a seemingly insurmountable challenge, these speakers deliberately acted to reject, reverse, or transcend barriers. The consciousness of these choices is the essence of radical resilience embodied in the teachings of the late great psychiatrist, author and Holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl.  This was a day of making lemonade out of lemons, designed both to inspire and ignite greater consciousness in all who participated…or watched the talks later.

From the depths of darkness into light comes this inspiring story of one man’s journey through grief and life-threatening depression. Anshuman Das talks about the power of happy thoughts and our freedom to choose.

这是关于一个人如何穿越悲痛和克服几乎致命的忧郁，如何从黑暗的谷底进入到光明顶点的鼓舞人心的故事。AD谈论 关于快乐想法的力量及我们自由的选择。
