Bryan’s new short film.
Its been a busy 3 days for Bryan and me…. Today is the 3rd day of filming for Bryan’s short film - Ethan. A project by NTU students. It was pretty tiring but the production team were very nice and friendly. We were all well taken care of despite the long hours of filming….
Everyday, its about 12 hours of shoot…. Bryan shooting and I’ll be waiting at one side using my laptop either surfing the net, doing my work or watching VCD.
On Wed, 1st day of shoot, we faced the extreme slow internet connection due to the Taiwan quake…. I was so bored…. so after being on MSN chatting for a while, I started watching a japanese serial drama - 24Hours ER instead. That helped to kill some time off….
Yesterday had outdoor shoot… and halfway through, it started raining. So I helped the crew to carry umbrellas while they clear the equipments from the rain. Then it was another 2 different locations of shoot indoors. Lots of travelling around, so didn’t get to use much computer either.
Today’s shoot is much better.Cos its all isolated at the same loction. So I can be in the comfort of an office using internet thru the LAN connection as well as continuing watching 24Hrs ER VCD. Yap, thats my laptop and table…
Tomorrow’s shoot will be a night shoot. Starting at 730pm and ending at 6am. Wonder how its gonna be… As scheduled, there will be one final shoot on 3rd Jan. But today, they mention due to rain and over run scenario, they may need another day. So that will make the total no. of days of shoots to be 6 days instead of 5 days. Bryan is enjoying every single bit of it. Especially with his co-actor - Fish Chaar. Whom in the show, acted as his professor as well as father.
Fish is an interesting guy. Bryan loves to hang around him and listen to the many experiences and stories that he tells. I’m glad they got on well. Alright, thats all for now…

Wah!!!! So long disappear liao!
Yap! I disapearred for a while… been really busy with sorting out my life….
What I mean? Simply cos I have decided to give myself another challenge! Together with Kheeliang, Vivek and Mark, we finally set ourselves to start up our own company. Yes! After squeezing our brains together for a long time, MediaCraft Eduservices Pte Ltd is born! Its all exciting, fun and of course, lotsa hard work!
Every weekday, we report to work at my home office at 10am. Work till about 6pm. Calling schools, preparing quotations, going for presentations and all. Its been about 3 months down the road…. We had a number of projects for our production arm.. like web designs, brochure design, translation etc…
Do take a look at 2 of the websites we have done;

Training wise, we are still keeping our finger cross that we can confirm some training deals soon for next year… It can be demoralizing when deals are not confirm yet. But we are keeping strong cos we believe we can make it happen!
While working hard for my own business, I also went back to Lavera to help out the busy busy Christmas season…. "Lavera", now known as "Phyto Organics" is the skin care product store located at Raffles City, B1-74. I started working part time there since last Cristmas. The people there are nice and the environment is nice. So occasionally, I will go back to help out and earn some pocket money too. However, there had been some issues arising within the staffs… our full timer there seems to be getting a little "uptight". Maybe stressed too… but anyway, which working place got no stress right? So we just take it with a pinch of salt.
Oh, one good thing came out my recent return to "Phyto Organics". Our boss - Jason, ask me to design the shop front for Christmas. With a token fee, I did up the whole shop front design as well as decorating the interior of the shop. Hee… a very new challenge for myself, boosting my confidence as a designer. Cos so far, I only design posters and websites…. store front… wow! 1st time!!! Hee…
So much about work, what about my personal life? I’ve finally got myself to spend some time reading up my friends’ blogs…. like Edrics and Winnie. Oh, Edric had been appearing everywhere ever since he took up the commercials for starhub. And Winnie, my very close pal had gotten married to Canada and so, communicating with her is done online now. As for love life, I am considered lucky to have Kheeliang by my side all this while and we are still as loving hehe
As for small Bryan, he was casted for another short film project by NTU students. His shoot will start last week of December. Recently, one of the short film he acted in won some award in Tokyo. Not sure what award but it was aired on TV. So when we attended my cousin’s wedding, my aunties and uncles were talking about seeing Bryan on TV. Hehe… By the way, if you wanna catch a glimpse of the video, click on the link below to watch it. The title is called "The Letter". Its filmed by a group of graduating students from Nanyang Polytechnic.
