i m now MEN IN BLACK! or what the abangs' crew in the production says "U SUDAH TINTED LA" hhahaha lol. i m practically burn from head to toe, my leg, hand, neck and face has double tone. as for the face, is like i m wearing goggles lol... during the 1st week of my 5th semester, i was involve in the production of sehati berdansar 3 promo TVC. really had a hands on experience in the shooting. they were many thing where i see for the very 1st time, like the ducks for props, 1st time in a padi feild inside a kampung area. this was different from the KDU ad we did cox i was totally doing a different area/department...
i was working real close with the crew members and the producers. taking care of the talents which could be a hand full, water boy making sure the director and everyone else get enough water and food. the good and bad in different department and many more. i just got to say it was really a awesome experience. in the production industry is all about team work and timing. everyone have to work together no matter how problems arise and how much you dislike that person. timing which is very very very important because the rundown is very very tight and packed. hahaha anyway enjoy the pictures. :P
due to the heat my neck was practically boiling. like pimple like that, got "loong".
the other location was at parking basement. it was really dusty inside and stuffy.
that about it... not many pictures here because i only snap a few as i was busy everything. lol i m looking forward for more experience like this!
as most of you all know, i went up to genting for the weekend and worked as a clown. hahaha i have to say it was a wonderful experience. i wanted to give it a try as i m still young and would like to look at different point of views. so there i was working.
making balloon can hurt you real bad. 2 of my fingers are hurt because tying the not. not to say the pumping and all just numb your arm. hahaha but it was all worth the price. get to play with kids, learn the inside and outside of clown life. :P
if there is another chance, i will definitely go for it again.
after i came down when out with some friends, chill out and some gossip happen lol... we are all bitches people. went to look out point and for the first time i drove all the way up (proud). anyway after that headed to friends(in ampang) house to get some stuff and she drew a map for us as we both in the car do not have a clue to head home.
just found out about my results for the 4th semester. haizh things do not look to good. i do not know why but one of my subject is not showing any grades.
well to sum it up, i did not get the grades i wanted. was aiming at straight As' but only 2 which reach my target. hope the missing one is also an A. film studies which i do not know why i got B+, was really hopping for a A but it could be anything that cause a B+. i do not know about my group members yet but i just hope the others get the grades the should have (it was stupid of me not to make a sound nor say anything to the lecturer). i m going to kill myself if they get better grades.
what is done is done, let bygones be bygones!(i do not know whether i spell it right or not). have to work harder next semester. i really thought i could do well this semester but turn out that i am not up to the standard yet i guess. there is always a gab for improvements right?
hey people! i m back for more... today morning was the "KDU Berani Awards" where our class pick the best out of the 14 short films we watch on tuesday.
i proudly say that my group has won the best editing and best cinematogrophy...
Mr.Gay (lecturer) has ask us to summit our work to astro.
so for the mean time we are working on that. YAY
if you are wondering which video it is, it the only video in my blog
"from the outside looking in" by looking glass (group production name)
Group Members : Jatta, Sha-Lyn, Charlson, Amanda, Hengshun and Sabirna (cast member)
sorry for the dead blog. have been really tired and there were a lot of work to catch up with for this semester, the most hectic and most experience gain semester.
i will write about my the things i did this semester. first of all, we as a group of 5 was choosen to come up with a KDU advertisment which it is being aired in the GSC cinema in One Utama, Mid Valley and Pavillion... all the halls plus KDU picked the second last spot to air it.
this was a very good experience for me as i was the production manager who had to plan from head to toe all the things. make sure is all well and make sure everything goes according to plan. i would like to thank the people that were involved. the crew members who was at KDU at 6.30am without any complain. Poh for helping even he was not a student in KDU, Yin Wey who understand and let it go (sorry!) and finally the people in MS Post (professional production company).
during that time of shooting was a no sleep policy haha, during that 2 weeks of planning, 2 days of shooting, a week plus of editing, i did not even sleep for 8 hours. i only sleep to the max was around 4 to 5 hours. i totally respect the film industry now, plus seeing the editing in work is not easy even for the 30 seconds advertisment. so people please go and check it out at the cinemas that was mention earlier. it will be aired for a month. did i mention that this was for KDU? we do not get paid. we will only have a cert and several lunch gathering. but it was all worth it i guess, not mentioning the things we need to catch up with our subject which was Advertising, E-media, Multimedia, Film Studies and Consumer Behaivour.
come to the conclusion, E-media my group came up with a video PSA for teenagers who finds normal news broadcast was boring. we made it as funny and creative as we could go. will upload the video when i get hold of it. :P
Multimedia, i have learn how to use micro media flash where everything can move and clickable. it was pretty hard at first without knowing anything but it was smooth as it goes. i even helped a few of my classmates on theirs either. we are suppose to come out with our very own music player. mine was a graffity style with 3 songs, 4 buttons and notes moving around as the songs are playing (like the music waves).
Film Studies, we learn about cinema and theory about it... i will see movies and film in a different way. film study made us open up to everything, Mr.Gary (lecturer) thought us to step out of the box and be creative. for some student, it was hard for them to put aside things they believe and do something beyond their expectations. as the finals in film study, we in groups have to come up with a short 5 minutes film. my group did this documentary on a particular who acts as an example where everyone judge people by their physical apperances, the moral of our film was leading people to change that mind set and not judge people just by looking at them. on tuesday was the day where we meet in college and air our films to out class. the feedback we got for our film was just !@#$% awesome. you just want to burst into tears. all the hardwork and time put into it was overturn by the feedback of the audience.
i think is enough talking and hope you all could see the hard work and joy we gathered this semester. i do not know whether i could up laod the film we did but i will try. hope you guys enjoy and gives some feedback reguarless of positive or negative comment, there is always a place where we can do better right? so hope you guys enjoy. :P

DAY 2
there are a lot more of pictures but i m just to lazy to upload. this is the once i picked that says it all. hope you guys will know more about the filming industry as i have learn that is not easy to produce something just like this. i gain much this few months as i m planning to gain more in the semesters to come. as i promise, the video that my group made. please enjoy and hope you all like it. take care!
thats for all at the moment. untill i remember what else there is, this will do. really hope you guys enjoy the the short film. as for the KDU advertisment, i could not load it up here due to copywrite issues and other stuff. PLEASE catch it in the cinemas as mention earlier on. :P Peace!
