& this is why I am in WKW

& this is why I'm in WKWSCI

After such a long time of keeping it all hushed up until yesterday's (it's past midnight already) 206 videos screening... here it goes!

COM206 1 minute video

The fruit of our labour (:

Please do comment/ like if you want to [no bribery here]


As we sat there in the overcrowded LT (loads of people not taking the module crashed the screening) & the music of our video began, my heart pounded strongly against my chest. Thousands of emotions & thoughts were running wild in my heart & mind in that one minute.

Would they like it? Would they laugh at certain parts even though it's a sad video?

As we all sat there & I felt like I couldn't breathe, when the credits came after the clip finished airing, the audience in the LT clapped. (hahas we all clapped for clips we liked/ appreciated)

In those claps that surrounded us (well, we were seated smack right in the middle of the LT) It was fulfillment at its very best. It was joy at being understood. It was gratefulness at others' appreciation.

They were all so kind~!

In that instant, I knew this was what I wanted to do
This was why God let me step into WKWSCI (:

Thank you all who made this video possible.
Our tutors, Daniel Heng mainly
Kin Mun for bearing with our sometimes confused directing & helping us to carry our heavy equipment
Junming & Mdm Parimala for letting us use the houses as our filming locations
My mum for driving us & our equipment to Jalan Kayu
& of course, Charn my dear brother & "sort-of mentor" who gave valuable feedback & comments on how to improve our editing+ how to make nice credits in the shortest time possible.

Thank you all who supported this team consisting of Santhi, Eunice, Jade & myself.
Thank you Santhi for bearing with my sky high expectations & all the hard work gone into editing staring at the same thing over & over again x) OPS
Thank you Eunice for sticking with us even though sometimes the 3 of us have arguments about how best to shoot this sequence & for the awesome narration & music you found!
Thank you Jade for agreeing to sacrifice in acting such a !! role even though you're in CS too & for finding Kin Mun who's such a co-operative male lead! & for readily agreeing to do the scene in the rain which we cut out in the end (yes! sobs)

A million Thank You's to all of you!

& the biggest thank you goes to my bestest best friend, God! Because You made everything work out well~^^ & You brought us through the toughest periods of rushing for other assignments & quizzes in the midst of filming



Now I'm smiling like an idiot just thinking about this @_@ aaahhh stop smiling already!!!
