Overview
About
Mark Hall is an independent filmmaker based in Austin, Texas. Sushi: The Global Catch is his first feature-length film project, which was conceived while visiting Warsaw, Poland. Mark was amazed by the popularity of sushi in eastern Europe and viewed the cuisine as emblematic of how economies have rapidly globalized. He was a part of the “early” days of the Internet, having established the world's largest online education portal in 1998. Mark's experience in media – along with his background in business and law – was a big help in completing Sushi. His last documentary, Mission on Seven, won a Platinum Award at the 2010 Houston Worldfest film festival. He attended graduate school in Japan and loves sushi.
