Today marked the first day of \u201cCinema Museum \u2013 Special Fall Screenings\u201d at Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum, after we launched the event at Andaz Tokyo, the other event venue, last night. Starting at 10:30 in the morning, we screened a total of four short film programs today, each approximately 70 minutes in length.<\/p>\n

Many of the early birds here first thing this morning had reserved tickets for programs throughout the day, so we had the pleasure of welcoming returning visitors to watch multiple programs.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our most popular program of the day proved to be the \u201cAcademy Awards\u00ae & Cannes Film Festival Award-Winning Short Film Program,\u201d which featured films such as \u201cThe Phone Call,\u201d winner of the 87th<\/sup> (2015) Academy Awards\u00ae Best Short Film (Live Action) and \u201cWaves \u201998,\u201d an award-winning co-produced animation from Lebanon and Qatar. Following closely after this, we also had a fantastic turn out for the \u201cJapan and Asia Short Film Program,\u201d the last screening of the day. Attendees were able to enjoy a variety of shorts, both brand-new and some a little older, including Royston Tan’s early work, “D.I.Y.”<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Visitors to the event commented on how impressed they were at the auditorium, which makes a fantastic cinema. The large screen and excellent sound system offer the prefect environment for enjoying the atmospheric screenings.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We also had the pleasure of welcoming a range of overseas guests, from across North America, mainland Asia and Europe. Many of them commented on the variety of shorts, enjoying programs such as the \u201cHollywood Star Short Film Program\u201d and the \u201cAudience Choice Short Film Program,\u201d and some of them intended to come back for additional screenings later in the week.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tomorrow we will show a range of programs, including the \u201cArt Short Film Program,\u201d which will have its premiere screening at Tokyo Metropolitan Art Museum at 12:10. We will also hold a special screening event with AKB48 group.<\/p>\n
