Completed AMDAL and handed it up. The screening of it was a disaster, having a bad projector to screen a movie that's got characters silhouetted half-the-show more or less made it a non-film (with film actually having images one can see). Don't even mention the sound, the film depends entirely on the answering machine messages filling in the gaps but in the end it just came out all mangled over the speakers. Sickening person who wiped the MD track. Who does that anyway (inside joke)?
Damn me and my not placing subtitles. Remind me sometime dear readers never to bother with deadlines because they can be changed (if enough voices are raised in protest).
On to the topic at hand then!
The December Films
In December we're going to make films, first, I'll go to get permission from the school, then draw out cameras, refine the script, work the locations and props, then proceed. Due to the subject matter at hand, we'll more or less be making every genre of film ever conceived.
Which is going to be hard work. But I think we'll manage.
Two would be short films, and one would most likely be a feature, considering that we probably will need all the time we can get to deliver our message.
Brainstorming on a piece of paper now.

This is the rough edit of the film, music courtesy of Monofone (via Hui). We had a lot of trouble making this film, considering that we're moving into the zones of attempting some special effects and loads of sound manipulation. Not to mention that the colour is totally off from what we filmed and edited. Problems with the exporting.
Special Thanks to the following:
Low Koon Yen - for being Icarus Tan, and proving that he's not a mere actor (cleans!).
Chang Haw Han - for being Winfred Chong, and for helping out from his busy schedule.
Faiz Law - for encouragement
James Mairata - for the vetting of the original script and suggestions.
And everyone else who have helped with filming. Those involved you know who you are.
Cheers,
Erwin Nah
