In the series, he lives out his other passion, martial arts, practicing with Kung Fu masters throughout China. He also explores China\u2019s burgeoning hip-hop scene.<\/p>\n The company plans to produce a slate of at least ten original titles over three to five years, beginning with three titles slated for completion in 2018. Budgets will vary depending on the size and scope of the individual projects. Studio SV will make its debut appearance at MIPCOM.<\/p>\n Chan Woo commented: \u201cOur first series was hatched from an idea I had to capture on camera, Lupe\u2019s experience in China, where he ventured on a journey of introspective thinking through the practice of martial arts\u2014a personal passion of his. From this, a partnership was struck to combine our imaginative intrigue, leverage my creative production expertise, and marry it with Lupe\u2019s naturally occurring artistic flow, to create Studio SV.<\/p>\n \u201cAs we examined our combined resources, and the landscape of the entertainment industry, we saw a tremendous opportunity for a new approach to content creation and an opportunity to apply a successful business model within this ecosystem.\u201d<\/p>\n Fiasco added: \u201cAt our core, we seek to nurture and champion creative talent who have like-minded visions of creating exceptional cross-cultural content that can be enjoyed universally\u2014not just in specific countries or regions. While continuing to disrupt and innovate, Studio SV will further empower these forces, integrating them into content that we will bring to audiences hungry for experiences that inspire, intrigue and transform.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Grammy Award-winning rapper and entrepreneur Lupe Fiasco and Hong Kong-based marketing and media exec Bonnie Chan Woo have teamed up to\u00a0form the hybrid-modeled production outfit Studio SV.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":477,"featured_media":4544,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[898,899,900,901],"class_list":["post-4543","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-beat-n-path","tag-bonnie-chan-woo","tag-lupe-fiasco","tag-studio-sv"],"yoast_head":"\n
