The program features a vast array of creators from all aspects of the Japanese arts and culture content industry. “Geki 3” will feature daily shows by a professional from the music, theatre, robotics, animation, broadcast, film or game industries who will present a live three-hour interactive show. The presenters will provide the audience with details of their own success and dispense advice to their young audience on trends and predictions for the content industry. This is a unique opportunity for all upcoming creators to learn from their role models and discover how they can achieve their own personal success in the future.

From 10 pm, live music by Australian singer/songwriter Steve McLeod!
www.myspace.com/steviemyspace
From Melbourne, Australia, Steve McLeod – singer, songwriter, guitarist, got hooked to music at 4 years old after seeing a Prince video. He began studying classic piano. By his early teens his love and understanding of music had grown, wanting to learn more instruments and styles. The guitar became his main focus, then the drums, bass and songwriting.
After high-school, Steve started experimenting with original compositions. His love for jazz found him in Los Angeles at Richie Kotzen’s recording studio, recording a solo jazz-instrumental album.Whilst working on this material, Steve was working on productions and songwriting for various Australian bands and singers. One demo even caught the eye of EMI’s Executive Director, who encouraged Steve to take a more rock, vocal direction – closer to his initial experimenting.
In 2006/07 Steve moved to Los Angeles where he attended the Musician’s Institute, furthering his musical landscape. During this time studying and working on his album, Steve wrote and produced music for Emmy Award winning TV in the U.S.
With his debut album “Human Uniform” now completed – Steve wrote, produced, arranged, sang all vocals, played all instruments on this album. It was recorded in various studios in Los Angeles and Melbourne. For interviews and clips go to myspace.com/steviemyspace.
