5, 6, 7, 8... NaNaNa NaNaNaNa NaNaNa

This holiday had been a pretty fruitful one. I was in 5 video productions (including the current one I am working on) and 1 theatre production.

We did this video for sec1 orientation because we couldnt barbeque and at the same time perform and so we go for prerecorded performance. Idea was plagiarised from 5 filmmaking tips for dummies. The first 2 days of shooting went quite well other than the fact where we had missing shots and all. We even had like spoof music video of 'You are the music in me'. Gosh, it was so funny!

The rebels of the school.
Syafiq sleeping with soft toys? Oh, how manly! Quote from Rukku, 'Only real man sleep with soft toys'
Photos for continuity. Actually I dont think we even need it cause continuity in the video is damn bad!

Lights?(other than the fact we dont have lights) Okay. Sound? Okay. Camera? Rolling. And ACTION!

Cast photo. More coming up on monday. Should have done a cast+crew photo.

Not exactly a crew photo but still a crew photo. More on monday. Prolly do some screen capts to give a sneak of what its like.

its making every single moment last and last and last;

Enjoy your teenhood

Made with Adobe Premiere Elements. What's the diff between premiere and premiere elements? Elements' interface is nicer!(: This video was shot in the States. I uploaded it just to entertain you before enjoy your teenhood is uploaded. Just a little background, I actually accidently shot some of them in widescreen version. Big big blunder. Oh wells.

Enjoy Your teenhood


Made with Sony Vegas.

For ben teh. Yes you, the one who fears forgetting the dv tape and pressing the record button (and not forgetting indigestion too)! I hope I didnt spoil it for you by telling you what it's about.

Twentyfour was fun. But uber stressful. So while we were at ECP. We made the cast play frisbee while we try and figure out the story. So we got like 20 minutes worth of frisbee playing when we only needed like 20 seconds?

Stayed over at sara's house. And mr weng went home! He asked sara to put us to bed.

Xinyi: How are you gonna know if we are asleep?
Mr weng: I'll drive pass sara's house [in the middle of the night] to see if the lights are still on.
(next day)
Xinyi: So did you drive pass?
Mr weng: Wanted to. But I couldnt get up.

LOL. We told him that the guys and girls slept together but he didnt seemed bothered. Oh yeah, we got chased out of siglap macs too. So we ended up at some kopitiam which doesnt have anything at all probably cause its sooo late in the night.

Hmm, just wondering which of the following is better. To have bad memories or to reminisce about good past and know that you can never have them back again. I suppose its the same perspective as looking a glass half filled. It could either be half full or half empty.

The view through a one way mirror. You can be blinded by sweet memories too.

If you're wondering where I disappeared to...

Just like how 'Heroes' have a tagline 'Save the Cheerleader. Save the world.', we also have a tagline of our own! Maybe not tagline, more like punch line. Chilli? What chilli? Who cares about the chilli?! It's just a myth. Dont be so superstitious larhhh!




PLEASE READ THE ROLL CREDITS CAREFULLY. THANKS TO CAST AND CREW AND MR WENG!:D CONTENT BELOW MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS.

Dedicated to bestfriends, Team 2046(the team I'd never forget) and to those out there who strongly believed in me!(: Eh, starwars marathon with crew?(dew, you better turn up. cause that would be really the last team bonding) And notice how Shalyn go,'Yarhhh!' We have been imitating her 'Yarh' everytime we capture the video or edit it. We didnt even let her off on the last day. But the sad thing is that she's gonna leave.

Basically, a three week production. Though not what I expected to be, but better than I thought it would turn out. Although tip 5 is quite subtle, I hope you get it. If you dont, you can ask me personally. Cause I dont want to spoil it for others(hints mr weng)! The three-week production had been fun. Alot of good and bad things happened (let's just keep the bad to ourselves, ahem).

Scene1
We basically stole the extras from CO camp. Haha, sshh. They were very nice to help us. And melvin did a great job being the make-up artist. Thanks to Vivian and Priscilla. Gary was supposed to be the waterboy! And he ran away. Lucky we got moses!(: The shots were not bad but we should have gotten more different shots!

Scene2
I dont like the toilet though. Cause its quite uglyyy. But shots were still effective. Eerie cause of color correction.

Scene 3
Damn, we just totally picked the wrong day to film at the den because that day the band was having concert. So they were like walking in and out of the band room cause they had to change to their concert attire. I was quite irritated with the noise and all.(no offence though)

Scene4
Its the first time I had ever done a rain scene. We had a drizzle but it wasnt visually appealing enough that we had to rope in the 'rain god'. More like goddess

Scene 5
Fun, and I had to come out of the TV box like more than 10 times cause Zuhairi keep making silly mistakes.

When I brought my cast to the outdoor location, they were like 'wl, what is this place? So ulu. You filming kingkong arh?!' The forest is beside the school compound. We had to reshoot some parts cause we could see the fence. And we took like 15 minutes to walk from the photog room to the location. We decided not to walk back because we were too lazy. So we climbed over the fence into school. Yesterday by the time we finish editing, it was like 6.30pm. And we got caught by sabri. He scolded us. Man, asked for our names. I dont know what he's gonna do to us.

I'm not expecting to win anything. But quite pleased with performance. Though, I would prefer twentyfour anytime. And I realised that I had never uploaded 'Enjoy your teenhood'. Oh well, I suppose that would be a privilege for those who turned up for film fest. BTW, thanks for the endless supply of love.Life can be silhouetted. Its morally grey anyway.

Good luck to those who are going for genting competition (band peeps)
One more thing, you can post your comments about the video. Click on the button that says comments.

I just desperately need a place for my thoughts.


You know everything I do reminds me of you? Occasionally, I will take out my box just to read your letters. Emotional turmoil is probably the phrase to describe how I am feeling right now.


I'm just feeling uber confused and alone right now. Its like no matter how many people are around you, you still feel alone and unloved. Like your life's not complete? I need the fullness of love. Love more, never less. Maybe I should do something more positive and make a difference.

I need to leave this crazy place, I really do. And actually, 'crazy' isnt the right synonym to describe the degree of insanity.


I feel like crap all of a sudden.

Emo for thoughts

I will be a director, someday.
