DALANG 2013

DALANG 

(2013)

Dalang was the first short film project I involved with another close friend company, Vfilm (associate with shadow man film), owned by Jye and Steve Long. The story about 14 years unsolved murder case involved with a Malaysia traditional Puppet Master (Tok Dalang), the casts for this short film included our independent film pioneer director, James Lee, also with veteran actress Koe Yeet, and Stephen Chua (he is industry famous DOP). 

Basically we all have been flied to Kelantan and completed most of the main scenes there, it was my first time go to shooting locations by plane. But during this short I really impressed by the beauty of Wayang Kulit (Malaysia Puppet Theater), I want to shoot something involved with this in the future as well!

FLOATING SUN // HORROR MISSION

3 Doors of Horrors consider another big influence for me during my film making days. It was a first big project I worked with our Pioneer Independent filmmaker James Lee (eventually I produced for his 2014 edition later). 

3 Doors of Horrors was omnibus film which James Lee executive produced for 3 different directors with different 3 types of horror film. It was an annual project by Doghouse73 pictures, until 2015 it already reached it 3rd edition.

For the 1st edition (2013) I worked as Production Manager for Edmund Yeo section, Floating Sun. once again I got back our actress friend Andrea Lee for one of the main role. the ghost. As well as new talented actress Daphne, and charming Emily Lim, with another famous actress Candy Ice and actor Steve Yap. I guess the theory for the director concept want to gather all pretty girls inside his short was worked. 

It was fun shot but actress have to stand for sleeping on the water for long period, without any complaint, proud of them! 

And at the end we successfully made the premiere along with another 2 segments, Horror Mission (directed by Ken Kin) and  I Miss You Two (directed by Leroy Low). 

At this point, I have to mention that actually I worked as production assistant for Horror Mission segment!!

For Floating Sun, it continued traveled to European Premiere @ Spectrum Shorts, Rotterdam International Film Festival 2014.

Double

DOUBLE (2012)

This short film opened my first step into independent film, which gradually I felt in love the mentality, spirit and the way people make film just for art and trying to express themselves with their own story. It also my first job worked for Greenlight Pictures, get to knew who was Woo Ming Jin (director of this short film as well) thru Edmund Yeo.

As I remember this short film funded by YOMYOMF network youtube channel for a project called Silent Terror Short Film. And I worked as props assistant and production assistant on set, at the first time. It was also my first time worked with actress that I knew for sometime, Andrea Lee. Beside she, there was another famous actress Carmen Soo and Thien See.

The shot was 2 days but good enough for me to make decision that changed my future and which result as what I am for today. So it consider a very memorable project for myself.

p/s: most of the photos I shared took by Edmund Yeo or the personals on set, mine own photos gone with the corrupted harddisc.
