Introduction

I am a background performer on "Stargate Universe", my character's name is "Dr. Vince Kwan" and my nickname is B.A.G. or the "Balding Asian Guy". After 12 years in the film business, I got my break back in August, 2010, when on Gateworld a Stargate fan website, a thread got started to "Save Balding Asian Guy". Nobody knew my name back then, because I was only a background performer! Due to this campaign, I became the first background performer in the history of the Stargate franchise to be given a character on the show. Thus, Dr. Vince Kwan was born!!! On Sept. 4th, 2010, Joseph Mallozzi, the producer of "Stargate Universe", had little old me on his Blog for a Q&A, and B.A.G. was immortalize. Google "Stargate balding Asian guy" to find out more about me, because you want to, you need to, and you have to!!!

  19. Hi Bill:

    Have you ever been a body? What I mean is, have you ever played the dead guy in a murder mystery? If you have, what was the most interesting part of it? Is it harder than it looks being a corpse? Were you a dead ringer for the body you were playing?

    - heh heh. Sorry, I couldn't resist.

  21. My dear Arctic Goddess, how are you doing? Always nice to hear from you!! Yes, I have been a dead body before and the most interesting part was trying not to move or breath when you know the camera is on you. Also, it is kind of funny, when people are walking around you, poking you, moving you, touching you, and all I can think about is "Hey, watch where you are stepping, those are my body parts that you are standing on!!". One time, I was in Chinatown lying on the sidewalk in late Oct. for 2 hours, and dam, was it cold!! All I want is for them to finish the stupid scene, so that I can thaw out my body parts!! I don't know if I am ever a dead ringer for the body that I was playing, but the 1st AD did say "Hey, get that Chinese guy back on the sidewalk!!". I am Chinese, so I guess I fit the BILL, ha!! Ha!! Take care and hope to hear from you again!!
