Over the weekend, channelAPA.com had a chance to be a part of BANANA 2, an Asian American blogger conference. The “Blogging and Pop Culture” panel featured speakers Zero Kazama (MTV’s Silent Library), Jane Lui (janelui.com) Steve Nguyen (channelAPA) and moderator Kevin Hsieh (channelAPA). We examine how our respective industries have created significant shifts in how weteract with our fans in order to promote our projects. This panel focused on the evolution of social media and how it has radically changed the way artists distribute content, obtain funding, and build their brands.

Be sure to get the latest on the panelists projects:
Jane Lui – Goodnight Company album
Zero Kazama – Freezer Burn short film
Steve Nguyen – Hibakusha animated short film
