Sundance: Docu filmmakers hit 'Linsanity' jackpot
Deal nearing on the right place, right-time Sundance docu
日舞影展快報：林來瘋紀錄片尋找發行商一事即將大勢底定
By Josh L. Dickey
When director Evan Leong and his crew first approached Jeremy Lin during his
senior year at Harvard, the hope was to get enough material for a web series
that might interest Asian-Americans, Christians and other fans of the obscure
NBA journeyman.
What they did instead was catch the documentary filmmaker's version of
lightning in a bottle -- and wound up at Sundance with a film that's a
buzzer-beater away from closing a distribution deal.
當導演梁伊凡團隊在向當時在哈佛讀大四的林書豪提出拍片的要求時，他們計劃的是拍
一系列在網路上播放的短片，目標觀眾則是亞裔美國人、基督徒和這位在NBA載浮載沉的
球員的球迷們。
然而在日舞影展公開放映後，因導演的靈光一閃而成就出的這部紀錄片，與發行商的協議
只差臨門一腳了
"We pursued this with Jeremy and his family declined numerous times," said
Brian Yang, a producer on the film. "They just didn't want the attention, and
he's a conservative guy. They really didn't understand, they were like, 'Why
would you want to put a camera on Jeremy? He's just a kid playing baskeball
at Harvard.'"
「當初在追著他們提出拍片計劃時，林書豪和他的家人拒絕我們好多次，」紀錄片製作人
Brian Yang回憶道。「他們不希望受到關注，而林書豪是個保守謹慎的人。他們完全無法
理解，覺得『你們為何要拍Jeremy？他不過是個在哈佛打籃球的孩子。』」
When Lin was selected for the NBA, the idea made more sense to the family, and
the filmmakers started tracking Lin during his rookie year with the Golden
State Warriors. During that time, a member of Lin's sports management team
became involved with the filmmaking team, and the player and project became
firmly intertwined.
當林書豪加入NBA後，他的家人才比較能理解拍攝紀錄片的意義為何，攝影團隊從林書豪
在金州勇士的菜鳥球季開始追蹤他的職業籃球生涯，同時林書豪經紀團隊的成員之一也成
為攝影團隊一員，從那時候開始，這名球員和這個紀錄片企劃終於有了深入而密切的合
作。
"The idea was to make a modest, simple webisode series," said Yang, "just to
tell his story of what made him who he was."
「我們原始想法是製作一系列簡單真實的影片在網路上播放，讓網友了解林書豪這個
人，」Brain Yang說。
Then, last February happened.
然後，去年二月那件事發生了。
Having played sparingly and on the verge of being cut by the New York Knicks,
Lin was thrust into a starting role and led a remarkable seven-game winning
streak that generated a global following known as "Linsanity." Suddenly, Lin
was being bombarded with requests from major directors and media outlets to
capture it all -- but the family remained loyal to the ones who'd been with
them all along.
在極少的上場時間與被紐約尼克裁員的危機下，林書豪一夕爆發空降球隊先發並成就了
聞名全球的「Linsanity」經典七連勝。突然間，許多知名導演和媒體平台的拍攝邀約像
炸彈般不斷向林書豪襲來，但是這家人最終還是和一直長期拍攝林書豪的梁伊凡團隊合
作。
"Everything changed," Yang said. "We went from making an eight-part webisode
series to a feature-length doc in a real hurry. People were like, 'How did you
know this was going to happen?'"
Yang and his fellow producers, many Asian-American basketball fans who had
been tracking Lin since his earliest days at Harvard, knew all along how
lucky they were to have exclusive access during a truly global viral sports
phenomenon.
「計畫完全被顛覆，從8段網路短片一瞬間變成長篇紀錄片，我們老是被問說『你們怎麼
知道這一切會發生？』」Brain Yang說。
從林書豪在哈佛時期就已經在追蹤他的消息的Brain Yang和製作團隊的人（許多都是亞裔
美籍籃球迷），自始至終都知道他們有多幸運可以在這個漫延全球的體育風暴裡能夠獨家
近距離接觸暴風中心。
"There is footage from that period, when he was just getting hounded and
stalked by the media," Yang said. "There are definitely scenes in there
where you're like, 'Wow, that's what this was really like.'"
「我們拍攝到他當時被媒體緊追不捨的情景，」Brain Yang說，「那些景象你絕對無法想
像!!! 但我可以告訴你， 相信你的眼睛吧！。」
