Hi to whoever is viewing our blog.
Now its is 1101.
13 hours more to submission.
There is a mix feeling in my heart.
I wanted this to end so that we could take a break,
but yet, i feel that we need more time to improve our work.
Majy is making me act like a Duck.
I think she is too stress.
Because whenever she is stress,
apple will be the brunt of all her jokes.
She reads my mind.
so she knows what i am typing here.
I see sholleh's group still doing recording.
Im tired...
WE ARE WEARING SOMETHING TMR!
not naked. HAHA (:
jingyuan is cool (:
alvin is loo (:
majy is two (:
and apple is HOT STUFF!
WAHAHAHA!
i dont make any sense so im going to log off and pass it to majy!
BYEBYE apple(:

apple's text orientation is a bit weird just like apple herself. then again, apple is the personification of weird.
we're listening to really old... actually, not that old but old enough... songs. very nostalgic. so, we're in the audio room and the air-con is blasting. my toes have long since dropped off and fell numb but after more of our fellow peers decided to grace us with their presence, it isn't that cold anymore. my toes are re-sewn and saved. hallelujah.
the process of the last three days were pretty intensive. jingyuan has been editing and her eyes are puffy and black like, you know, a pufferfish and a panda merged. heh. a pufferda. lol. wah, lame. must be apple's influence.
apple has been doing the paperwork and is most of the brains behind most of the marketing stuff. she should indulge this and bask in the glory of this because i actually said 'brains' and 'apple' in the same sentence.
the brains need hands however, so hah, maj has hands to type and illustrate while apple was concentrating on her paperwork. had to add the latter in because apple is feeling a bit insecure about her abilities and demand that i say she is focused. apple is doing aftereffects. .........
so, digressing... between us, we split the marketing things (happy apple?) and made alvin sponsor our entire production. did i mention what a good cameraman he is? hi, alvin.
pufferda is still doing her work. piano group is forcing their talent to hum a song but their talent, apparently doesn't have enough 'talent' to hum. it's difficult, ok, humming. i understand how she feels. and with 100983 pairs of eyes looking at her. poor thing.
i very lo-so. but apple is still reading.
yay. we're gonna like, wear totally funky 'new kids on the block' stuff tomorrow.
byebye.

Was not able to stay with the crew till the end for yesterday shoot due to some outside screening i had. But i belive those guys have fun :\
IM LEFT OUT!!!
But its okay.. i got to see some ITE's work. I really have to say, THEY ARE GOOD!
STRESS!!!
But i think ours not bad for a P2 la (: OH YA! main focus of this post.
WE ARE DONE WITH SHOOTING (: (: (:
Left with voice over and editing and maybe packaging and paper works??
OH betrand what do we need to include for our paper works ?
I think you do visit here (:
HAHA! Apple and her lazyness to send an email!
10:48 PM
I decided to take a break from editing and blog...
ROARRR. EDITING IS KILLING ME OMGOSH. I swear I'm not gonna take up CDI anymore. :(
One more week to the end of P2!!! CANNOT WAIT PLEASE. I really need a breather man. :/ Sleeping at wee hours everyday is not cool.
I'm more or less done with editing. I'm colour correcting now. And it sucks because its so tedious. Sigh. Ok I know I should just stop complaining and get back to work. BUT I CAN'T HELP IT. I need a place to rant!
Anyway, interim one yesterday was okay. Bertrand taught us a very cool way of color correcting. And I also found it on the net, they uses a different method though, and I find it easier to use. I'm not sure if im incorporating the effect into our video. I have to make sure it fits and not just do for the sake of doing, yada yada you get my drift. Although I really want to be selfish and make our video outstanding. LOL. We really put in so much effort!
I think I'm turning a bit sot due to lack of sleep. :/
ANN SIANG HILL
LOL, WTH. TAK GLAM
hahahahah! GET WHAT WE MEAN. It's so torn and tattered already. But anyway, the gym already close down. There's even open air toilet on the second floor which we can see one. Hahaha. Wtf right. No offence, we are just very fascinated by this place. ;)
SO COOL RIGHT. We climbed up there to film!
Scared also wanna act smiley. :/ Hum ji. LOLICE KIMO
We clean people's shop for free okay. How nice. Tsk.
HAHAHA.
HAHAHHAHAHAHAH THIS ONE EVEN MORE FUNNY. SO CUTE RIGHT. We should should really treat both of them for sacrificing so much for us man!

Josh fell asleep while we were preparing
This was our dinner. For 5 people. LOL. TOO MUCH. So we had to call people to come and eat. hahaha.

He went crazy at wee hours.
I had to say this. My house scenes start from morning 10am like that till 4am in the morning. In between minus off some time cos Josh went back to school to do his stuffs.See our cast 's zombie face at that hour. hhaha.
Yay. Gosh let me say it again.I CAN'T WAIT FOR P2 TO BE OVER OH GOD.

OKAY A UPDATE FROM APPLE (:
From alvin soe's post, you can see that we have much fun at ann xiang, chinatown. It was actually quite tiring to go down on two days as we have to carry alot of equipments down from home and the taxi fares cost a BOMB! And over at that place, there was no exact shelter, therefore causing the sunburns (as seen from previous yuan's post).
We didn't follow the shot list that we done as at the set, alvin and i came out with more different and much more interesting shots. For example tracking on a SPIRAL STAIRCASE and top shot by climbing onto the edge or hedge or whatever you call it. Missed out a shot which was the tight CU of Peter's mouth but luckily for this we can always cheat at other places as we only need the mouth (:
For the next shoot, we went to this cafe called ice kimo to shoot scenes where Peter is having his lunch (or in this case dessert (: ). Alvin knows the boss of this place so its quite easy for us to get hold of the place and there is not much customers in the morning ( totally no one... ).. So we, the crew went in frame to act as extras! Keep laughing at ourselves but nevermind! We had our fun (:
After the cafe shoot, we are SUPPOSED to go to jingyuan house to carry on shooting. But as our cast ( and also us ) were feeling very reluctant due to tiredness, we decide to go and set up so that we can shoot on the next day. yippee!
Next morning, went over and started to set up even more. shoot till around 12 30 and our cast needs to get back to school. So alvin went home to do his stuff and maj me yuan stayed at yuan house. Ended up with yuan facial-ing, maj guitar-ing and i totoro-ing and all three of us fell asleep till like 4pm...
Started shoot at around 8pm after our cast came back with a full stomach filled with our lovely spagetti (: Shoot ended at around 3am and we all cab home (:
We left only with those wall interaction scenes and close up of mother and peter lips which we gonna do later (:
WE OWE EQUIPMENTS FOR DAMN LONG!
Hope mr tay wouldn't mind. ( :\ )
Oh and MAJ FORGIVE ME FOR SUCH A BROKEN ENGLAND POST!
HAHA (:
12:09 AM
Due to the rain, we had to go back to Ann Siang Hill for a 2nd day of shoot...
During the 1st day of shoot, we discoverd the secret of this Ann Siang Hill...
We saw this spa/gym/pub at the hill, and it had RAINBOW flag outside its shop...
There were macho guys going around, entering the spa from backdoor, and to mention... we only see GUYS going in...
Maybe because Josh had a RAINBOW socks, it attracted the attention of one of the RAINBOWS guy... hahaha...
Just as we were filming halfway... We saw this... At the side entrance of the pub...
Now you know... its really a macho pub man!

I just realized that i suck at blogging la!
It took me 3 try to get this post up man! Its killing my brain cell man!
Anyway, rewinding backward....
Ann Siang Hill shoot was rather cool, although it somehow rained on the 1st day, but it didn't really affected us that much...
Thinking positive, maybe its another opportunity for us, to slowly try and achieve better shots?
Oh yah, when we were at ann siang hill... we discovered something....
look out for next post k! haha

hello!
ok, i'll talk more about our ongoing production days but i'll post photos up later in the week.
we started production on saturday and the weather, when we woke up, was excellent. the sky was bright blue with specks of fluffy little clouds. everyone's spirits were raised even higher than before.
so anyway, we met at alvin's place and that boy was fast asleep. i know right, bum. got our equipments and off we went to ann siang hill. set everything up and, i'm still quite proud of this okay, 6 starbucks drinks for $10. you all know who to thank, right? i'm so awesome.
we got through some walking scenes then it started to rain. a passing cloud sort of rain so we decided to continue to shoot. after about, i don't know, half an hour the sun reappeared and lasted for an hour or so before the skies literally opened up and drenched us in it's blessings. feeling a little bit disheartened after we realised that the rain is never going to stop, we packed up and took cover outside 'RAW - 24 hours gym and spa'. i will not elaborate but pictures will be up soon and it'll be evident how entertaining and amusing it was.
back to alvin's place to drop off the equipments for the next day.
sunday, blessed day, was hot and sunny and very nice to head down to cafe del mar for drinks and a tan. but, being hardworking, we went back to ann siang to shoot the rest of the scenes there. jingyuan and i headed down after helping out with gary's shoot, which led to a very bad sunburn for that poor white-skinned girl.
we got a lot of really interesting and awesome shots, i thought. very experimental and a little bit dangerous. again, pictures are worth more than words.
i think it takes a lot for me to get tanned which is disgruntling for me because i want to get tanned. but i was the least affected of them all at the end of the day. no tanlines, no burns, nothing much. bummer. we tried to shelter our main cast as much as possible but he still went home red.
okay, am off to sleep. ice kimo tomorrow and the house scenes.
i think we're getting bruised quite a bit here and there during production. we're naturally clumsy and accidents happen, yes.
take care, rub your blueblacks, put medicated stickers on your shoulders and get a damn good rest!
:)

Ok hopefully we will finish our production by tomorrow. I am damn tired. We are damnnnn tired.

11:45 PM
Life is so unpredictable. Lol. Okay, bad news. We suppose to shoot the cafe scenes today, rush like mad buying props and stuff. And when it's around 1 hour to our call time, Josh (the cast) called me.
He couldn't make it last minute because his lecturer decided to push back this briefing/meeting/whatever thing till 3pm. I was like, Oh my god you are kidding me. But no, he is not kidding me. So as upset as we were, we had to cancel the shoot and re arrange our schedule. :/ SIGH. See, life is so unpredictable. We thought everything will went well. But no.
But nvm! After re arranging, we decided to postpone our shoot to sat sun and mon. Sun got Gary's shoot also, which means i had to rush down to help him and rush back for my group's shoot. Lol. SEE WE SO BUSY LEH. HAHA. Josh (our cast) can make it on all the shoot days, ahh, really thank him so much, he could have enjoyed his after-fyp life already, but we pulled him back. We'll treat him a good meal afterwards :)
Ok some random pictures during our recce.
So Apple was saying we went Chinatown to recce last saturday after our very tiring shoot. Lol. After the super good xiao long baos, we decided to move on to our location, BUT, weather god is not on our side, it rained again. And we end up trapped at the complex there. So we walked around and saw this shop that sell glasses and shades.
And we decided to buy one each. LOL. SEE SO COOL WE EVEN TOOK PHOTO WITH THE SHOP UNCLE. He very friendly and his shades are damn cheap! :D We always end up shopping when we have location rec. Hahaha.
HAHAHAHAHHA THIS IS DAMN SICK. HAHAHAHAHAHA. Omg damn tak glam!
Ok bye. PLS, let Saturday's shoot be smooth! :/ I'm gonna wash off my facial mask now. :D

To be more exact, we are using ann siang hill park for the skipping scene (:
So as there are two storey, we can actually do a top shot. It all depends thou.
And for the Side Profile shot of him walking down the street, we can use another part of ann siang road.

WE FINALLY FOUND OUR STREET!!!
After spending like a week of CRAZY REC! The location is at ChinaTown, ann siang road. This picture is taken from the net because... Sat, we start shooting our first scene and it took us 4 hours plus due to the rain, calefares etc. So we ended at 4+ and head over to Chinatown at around 7 (waited for alvin to bathe. TSK ) Then after, as there were traffic jam due to oil leak on the way to china town, we reach Chinatown at 8 +++, we were hunnnggryyy.. So we went to have xiao long bao! And, it started to rain again... So we bought glasses from a uncle while waiting for the rain to stop. We decide to fight through the rain to ann siang road after getting the specs as we dont want to come back again.. AND luckily! WE FOUND IT!! The whole group is happy! (:
Lets wait for jingyuan to post the picture we took at chinatown while waiting for the rain to stop (:
