'Sireh Tersepit Sdn. Bhd.'

Just got back from my first day at FINAS' class on Pengurusan filem. Hahaa... seriously speaking... byk benda yg mengejutkankan dan sedikit 'shocking'! (exeggerate je ni...)

First... Being a producer (theoritically) are much clearer now to me on do's and don'ts'. Ada yg makin susah, dan ada yg makin senang based on pengurusan video yg aku belajar dulu dgn 'mat london' + 'pak ibrahim'. Overall, it comes to the same perspectives of pre, pro and post. Cuma hari ni basically, dibincangkan ttg pre-production all day long!

Kali ni view yg diketengahkan agak berbeza dgn sblm ni, kita diajar more on how to react, control and understand the main subject which is : BOUNDARIES! + trust. seemuaaanya akan end-up kat topik ni. Trust yg interesting sebenarnya, sbb benda ni yg 'superbly' subjective! It starts from the beginning. To do or not to do! Lebih kurang.

Secondly,.... hahahaa... seriously, U-Wei... one funny hellava guy! tak sangka, ingat garang... rupanya kelakar, sinis dll. One big thinker yg. boleh gain respect just by beborak-borak kosong (bukan borak tin kosong). Anyway, x tau lagi mcmana dgn the nxt 4 days going to be. but, having the first day this interesting... i bet i'm gonna get more of 'theories' adventure. hope so, aminn!!!

ESA (Environmental Sensitive Area) - Road Trip

Akhirnya dapat jugak settlekan shooting yg x sudah-sudah. Asyik tertangguh. Anyway, yg ni xdelah se'adventure' sbelum ni, tp, sbb kali ni ada kamera, so, direkodkanlah pengalamannya (Jozz sbg watak utama!! <-- gila glamer)Bergerak start dari KL menuju ke Seremban (di bulan puasa)... pinjam kereta Satria Milan.Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

TEBAAABBO!!! tp rupanya dia mcm just 'BOOM!', damn those new technology, bikin hilang ke-excited-an dia.tp seriously, bila ada kat atas bebukit yg ditarah ni, mcm2 view menarik boleh dpt. Most of them industrial look la sbb situ pun area industrial yg diklasifikasikan sbg sensitif utk pembangunan, tp common man... 'BOOM!' je? aii...Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Setelah kecewa dgn letupan 'kecil' di Seremban aku rasa Pangkor ni probably dpt menaikkan semula semangat kami utk menemui adventure yg lebih menarik. Yeah!.Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

Rough Cut

Waahh... finally wanted to write a borak kosong (since no activity!). Damn, just did a shooting job at the 'panas'test' area in KL, Kajang (sorry kajang-ians). Turns-out aku ngan Jozz nak bikin cinematography yg ala-ala Hollywood dgn tak malunya meminjam Dolly Panther utk mendapatkan efek yg 'kool'.

So, to tell u guys the truth (film/video laymen), Ya! memang kitaorang tak reti pakai. Basically, ada beberapa kesimpulan yg dpt dipelajari daripada pengalaman tersebut:-

1. Dolly Panther = BERAT!!! dgn crew yg seramai 2 org mmg pasti dpt menghasilkan peluh yg setanding dgn bersukan.


2. Equipment Preparations = KERJA GILA!!! shooting yg nak pakai 5 saat sbnarnya memerlukan lebih kurang setengah jam utk pasang-bukak...

3. Transportation = VAN atau LORI!!! aku akan make sure x pakai kereta biasa lagi (Proton)... Nak angkut keluar barang mcm nak berperang, susah!!!

4. Film Crew Job = (Key Grip, Cameraman, gaffer, bla-bla-bla, dll. yg berkenaan) mmg bukan keje senang. Aku skarang memandang tinggi terhadap korang yg buat kerja ni. RESTECPO!!!

5. Make sure skru kamera sinonim dgn kepala tripod yg dipinjam!!! Ended-up tak dapat buat shooting sbb skru x kena, so main-main je lah atas troli dolly panther tu, YEAH!!!

5 RINGGIT

Synopsis: What is the value of 5 ringgit? This story follows the journey of a 5 ringgit bill on one hot sunny day, transferred from one hand to the next, from person to person, from story to story, always changing in value and significance according to its owner.

The film is directed by Anna Mariana, a dear friend of mine. Comel orangnya... hehe. Anyway, the short film is one of 74 entries for BMW Shorties. Nice message, cute presentation and to me, it's about how people view things differently, and this is one of it - Anna's point of view.

Have fun watching it!!
(As Seen On YouTube)

* Part 1 and 2 are made since Youtube only allow uploaded file not more than 10 minutes each.


KELAPA

Synopsis: This is a story of one naughty little boy's search for a remedy to help cure his sister's illness. In the process of searching, he discovers that life is not all about fun and games, and this story captures his journey in discovering his creativity, resilience and the meaning of growing up. Or does it?

Finally, cerita KELAPA (my first entry for short movie competition) dah ada trailer. Walaupun x menang, tapi aku cukup berbangga sbb dapat tersenarai dlm geng-geng finalist yg lain.

Anyway, seriously... takkan ada cerita ni tanpa bantuan raaammmaaaiii org... especially Zaini dan Anna, keluarga Kak Linda yg bertungkus-lumus mengorbankan tenaga utk belakon (for free-itu yg aku kagum tu), auntie Zahariah dan auntie Maimunah, Junaidah Ramli (merangkap penyedia alat make-up), Kash, Jozz (kameraman) dan ...kalau aku x sebut nama tu sorry ek!?... sbb lupa!!! kalau tak lupa aku sebut satu-satu.

So, anyway, sudi-sudikanlah nengok trailer ni... thx!!.
