魔術改變人生

 
何煒麟校友(創意電影製作)出生於一個小康之家,約五歲時父母離異,成長期確診了過度活躍症。中學時接觸了改變他人生的表演藝術 — 魔術。每天放學就是專心研究並學習魔術,志決成為一名魔術師。由於不適應傳統的教育,中四時輟學,到零售店擔任兼職服務員,同時間繼續鑽研魔術表演和參與不同的魔術賽事。

18歲時何校友的魔術表演歷程碰上了樽頸位。在朋友鼓勵下自修投考DSE公開試,獲足夠的成績入讀香港浸會大學電影學院高級文憑。在校期間憑着電影訓練的推動,啟發了對魔術的嶄新看法,成功獲得了香港魔術冠軍的殊榮,並獲頒授才藝獎學金。

畢業後,何校友受邀到了日本擔任魔術餐廳的駐場藝人,同時接受日本對演藝人員的嚴苛訓練,憑着這些訓練獲得了代表香港出戰亞洲魔術大賽的資格,最後成功奪得了亞洲魔術比演排行第三的資格。隨後離開日本,繼續闖蕩天涯參加比賽、演出,和擔任國際交流大賽評審的工作。因很想把魔術餐廳這個文化帶到香港,便和伙伴開了香港第一間魔術餐廳。

2018年有一個基督教團體邀請何校友到中國內地山區擔任義務教學工作,由此啟發了他對擔任教育工作者的念頭。回到香港後,因為本身曾受過度活躍症之苦,被不同大學和機構邀請,與家長和老師分享此症狀下的個人經歷和轉變。這經驗亦驅使他去年出任非牟利組織 — 融樹頭創意藝術文化基金會主席一職,全力投身教育和慈善的工作。在基金會工作這段時間,致力為學生和特殊兒童製作藝術教育課程,希望可以藉著表演藝術改變他們的生命,讓他們活出自己的光芒。
