Video Shooting Madness

The Teenage Girl's drama team was at Cineleisure Damansara, filming their part at a shop called Seraphina.

The team was assessing the shop and planning where to start.
Last minute planning between my co-director with the first few girls before the video shooting began. And what was I doing taking pictures?????
CUT!!!!!!! Shouted the co-director and back to the scripts for them............. they managed to mumble their words at last.
Kerk said "I think this angle is not right". All we had was just a handheld video camera but it was good enough. With the number of people inside the shop, other shoppers thought this shop's goods were fantastic and they came in to have a look as well.





Halfway shooting, I noticed that the payment counter and changing room were resemblance of a kitchen and a shower area. Really cute.


After finishing our video shooting at the shop, we went to a karaoke place located 2 floors above Seraphina.

Nope, we were not celebrating the success of the video shooting earlier but to continue. Yeah, the drama entailed a scene at the karaoke place too.

Now this 3 guys, Lud, Jon & Terence were supposed to be 3 customers enjoying their time in the karaoke lounge. They were testing the microphone's working condition.

Kerk, our cameraman, worked unceasingly trying to capture the best angle and moments.


The papasan (missed his face) 'introduced' his girls to the 3 customers. The papasan was the karaoke caretaker and we managed to talk to him to play that special papasan role ......... hehehe. Producer's role lah.
So, the customers were enjoying their time chatting with the girls, who are college girls trying to earn extra income to sustain their lavish lifestyle.

Ain't it true. It's a fact which is happening in the real world.
This picture was taken just before Niki's (right) parents found her in the company of these men.

A fight erupted as her dad was too angry. The mom held on to the daughter. Didn't take any pictures as I was busy directing how the fight should be, how the others should react and where should stand for the best angle to be captured by the cameraman.

Long day indeed for some of them. The video shooting started at 4pm by gathering at one house to take the scene in the girl's room and moved on to Cineleisure Damansara. The whole thing ended around 12 midnight. So, it was a solid 8 hours involvement. For me, 4 hours was tiring too.

Some of our friends found out the long hours we took to film the drama and said "Wow, it must be exciting and you fellas must be making sure the best is done".

Upon hearing that, another friend said this "Those fellas took so long to film it because all amateurs and not Hong Kong movie stars. They kept having CUT!!! Do it Again! No, No, No, not like that one, cut, cut, cut...........". Nevertheless, we enjoyed our time.

“Panties for Peace” Campaign

You ladies out there who are reading this particular blog posting. If you had any compassion for the recent oppression by the military Junta in Burma (also known as Myanmar) on the monks or its citizens, you can play a part in protesting against such harsh treatment by the military Junta.

Activists based in Chiang Mai of Thailand has started a Panties for Peace Campaign where ladies will send their panties (whether worn or clean or those got holes in it) to Burma embassies throughout the whole world.

Liz Hilton, a supporter of the Lanna Action for Burma and a member of the Empower Foundation said this: “The people of Burma are doing what they can inside [the country]. We should do whatever we can outside. Most of us are not politicians, we are not powerful people. But women do have the power of their panties—let’s use that.”

You must be wondering of all things, why a lady's panties. Am I being sexist here? Well, according to a supertitious belief, the Junta members or military regime will lose power the moment they come into contact with those ladies panties.

Todate - Burmese embassies in UK, Thailand, Australia and Switzerland have received the panties. I wonder how are those embassy staff are reacting to it.

If you wanted to support this campaign, please browse for the embassy's address nearest to your place of stay. Ain't women fighting for women's power, now is the time to show your power.

How Adam Got Eve?

Adam was hanging around the garden of Eden feeling very lonely.






So, God asked him, "What's wrong with you?"
Adam said he didn't have anyone to talk to.
God said that He was going to make Adam a companion
and that it would be a woman.

He said, "This pretty lady will gather food for you, she will cook for you,
and when you discover clothing, she will wash it for you.






She will always agree with every decision you make and she will not nag you,
and will always be the first to admit she was wrong when you've had a disagreement.
She will praise you!




She will bear your children.








and never ask you to get up in the middle of the night to take care of them.








"She will NEVER have a headache and will freely give you love and
passion whenever you need it."







Adam asked God, "What will a woman like this cost?"
God replied, "An arm and a leg."






Then Adam asked, "What can I get for a rib?"

Of course the rest is history......................

Taking Corners

Recent concluded Moto GP has seen the best of the best trying to wrestle their way for positions in the last race of the Moto GP calender.
Not to be outdone, 2 local guys were trying to emulate them when taking those steep corners.
Another 2 guys took it a step further while riding a bicycle.
A stuntman tried it with a car instead.
For no apparent reason, this guy diced with his own life by using his head instead of his knee to give support while taking a corner.
But the winner goes to this group. The picture says it all.

Tiring Video Shoots But Fun

Well, really want to say kudos to the Teenage Girl's Life's drama team that pushed themselves to the limit in getting their video shoots done. A few of them were involved on their video shoot since 4pm on Fri afternoon. That 4pm scene depicted 3 girls in one of the girls' room where they had girls' talk.

I went over to the Curve to have my dinner while waiting for the team to have their video shoot at the Cineleisure Damansara.

Could see that Curve's was having a Malacca Day with performances by the Malaysian Portugese community. Had a quick dinner at the Paddington's with my family.

Oh yeah, my sis has a shop at the Curve, called ETC (stands for etcetera???) which is just above Marche restaurant or opposite of Colonial Times restaurant. Her shop sells coffee machines, coffee beans, higher grade chinese tea leafs and lots of kitchen wares (will blog about it next time).

Actually I didn't ask her why it was named ETC.

The night is here and walked over to Cineleisure Damansara to meet the team.

We had our first shooting at a shop called Seraphina at around 8pm plus. (more pics in next blog posting)

Wanted to blog about this yesterday but I can't seem to log into www.blogger.com. Of late, it has been like this.
