Pau has been one of the top cinematographers in Hong Kong. After his graduation of Filmmaking at San Francisco Art Institute in 1983, he directed his first feature "The Temptation of Dance" and Wu du qing chou (1992) (aka Misty) in the 1990s. Pau has been working with the top directors such as John Woo (_Dip hyut shueng hung (1989)_ [aka The Killer]), Hark Tsui (Double Team (1997), Hua yue jia qi (1995) [aka Love in the Time of Twilight], "The Chinese Feast"), Ronny Yu (Bai fa mo nu zhuan (1993) [aka Bride With White Hair], Bride of Chucky (1998), Ye ban ge sheng (1995) [aka The Phantom Lover], Warriors of Virtue (1997)) and Patrick Lussier's Dracula 2000 (2000). His recent collaboration with Ang Lee on Wo hu cang long (2000) (aka Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon) with poetic style in lighting and stunning camera moves became the first one of Hong Kong cinematographers being nominated by the Oscar and won seven major US critics' awards. With three awards for best cinematography at the Hong Kong Film Awards, Pau also got 12 nominations among 32 features during his 18 years of filmmaking.
