Amazing Week with Videos and Music

Hiyaa!! Finally a new post!
First of all, allowed me to shout loudly! Presentations are DONE! the busy and nervous week is finally over!

Last Tuesday, we were honoured to attend a sharing session of our SUPER senior(2006) Quek Shio Chuan. He's also the winner for BMW shorties 2011 with his inspiring 14 mins short film "Guang". This video was filmed based on his brother in real life who has autism and attention deficiency disorder and he wanted to create more awareness to the public about Autism. In the short film, Kyo Chen played as his brother who has autism and he has a special "skill" which he told us it called  "Perfect Pitch". Wondering what's that? watch the video then. =) This short film was granted the Best Screenplay Award, Best Actor Award and Best Sound Design Award in BMW Shorties 2011 and had won few international awards recently! *Congratz!* He came to shared his experiences in the media field and some tips on how to "survive" in this field. haha He showed us his latest production which is this year PetronasTVC for  Hari Raya - "Strangers". This is indeed a heartwarming TVC by Petronas. FYI, this video was taken at Uzbekistan. I remember he said 
"if you want to produce a good film, be sure to have enough budget. If no budget, then write a good script. If don't have a good script, get a good actor/actress to make the film good. If don't have good actor/actress, get a good editing skill." This is somehow quite true! remember that ya my friends! =) 
Well, a lady who's a producer at Reservoir Production came out to share about her own experiences and showed us a TVC of Bernas that was produced by her! I can't deny that I was actually moved by that short film and tears were rolling in my eyes.
You can watch the 2 short films by Quek here - Guang and Strangers
THe TVC of Bernas - The Journey
Enjoy! <3

"Guang" goes international! ;D

On friday, I've attended an amazing street music festival with a bunch of amazing coursemates! The theme for this music festival is "用马来西亚的金曲来说爱你"! they are going on a tour around Malaysia and this time they are at Jaya One! We were all excited for this and each of us went hyper and sing along with the performer and the crowd. Oh ya, we brought metal spoon as part of the musical instruments and guess what? We didn't know that metal spoons can create such a nice sound! We enjoyed playing around with our metal spoons and singing along with them. The performers for that day - Geraldine, 赵洁莹, 张德盛,周金亮 and the special guest 关德辉!!! There's a special performance by 手集团 and 2 guys with a nice song "候鸟归". There are lot of songs that are popular in everywhere and sing by popular artists but we don't know that they are actually written or produced by Malaysians! *proud" ;D

All the performers of the night! =)
My BFF in degree! <3
