Deja Vu in Preproduction

So that's the name of this series that I'll be working on with Dom and Josiah. We're having a little rush on the preproduction phase right now, trying to find casting but things looks to be going well. I've not had the need to break any skulls or rush anyone so that's a good start.

Should be posting up the short story for the episodes soon. Check my fictionpress account next month for the posting. Oh, I'm also taking up freelance writing work for a friend of a friend who's making a Unity game. More details on that sometimes this week.

The Next Move

Dominic has a rough idea of what we'll be shooting next and I sort of have taken quite the liking to the whole thing. We're currently planning the story for the video and don't quite feel like releasing any details yet. But when the time comes, it'll come.

Check it out, my sensei made this awesome video interpretation on a weapons manual.

Writer's Block on Hiatus

With Dominic busy working on his school project, this little video will be put on permanent hiatus. As well, I will be working on my own school projects as well. However, will be helping Dom with his FYP in the meantime so we can expect some form of progress.

I'll be uploading some of my schoolworks as they come, when they come as well. I'm still in the learning process of all the things but I guess that's what all humans do.

Writer's Block

As the month draws to a close, I thought I'd finally announce that REM will be working on another video project titled "Writer's Block". Now, I won't spoil anything for anyone so everyone's going to have to wait quite a long while. Everyone is getting ready and we're scouting for actors and actress. If anyone's interested, please, drop me a line somewhere.

Beginning's End

The New Paper's First Film Festival has officially came to a close tonight. To clarify, I've just returned from the prize giving ceremony. Everyone was really hyped and really cool at the event. They've even brought in Jack Neo to give out one of the prize, which was really awesome in itself.

Shade the Grey didn't win anything but hey, that's life. I didn't really expect our first video to have made much impact in the first place. Still, it was a good start. There were people there who did watch our video and did like it so it's not all that a failure.

In other note, I've recently just uploaded one of the two Cold Stone Commercial Competition video. This one was rejected. The official reason was that it didn't fit the theme. Oh well. It's still good for a laugh though.

A Brief Reprise

So, me and Dominic just finished up the last edits on those two Cold Stone commercials. He's going to take a while week to finish up some school project and I'm going to take the week to catch up on some of my writings. Once the videos go online, I'll post the link here so watch out!

Stone Cold Cold Stone

REM has just finished working on our advertisement for a Cold Stone competition. Thanks to Ezekiel for the reference and Josiah for the acting. We're far from done though as we move on to a second advertisement for the same company. I'm also going to need a good microphone for future shoots so I'm going out of the way today and spending some big cash to get one. If you see me on the streets, you can try to rob me. If you succeed, you can buy yourself some nice stuff!

Shade the Grey Screenshots

Yes, it's done. The editing and everything, it is done. Currently, the video is being uploaded to youtube so I'll post the link once it is up. In the meantime, here's a link to the written version of Shade the Grey done a few months back. Mind you though, though it is the same character, the video and short story are quite different.

Aside from that, here's a few screenshots of the video.

The Last Leg

Alright, we're finally done with the first phase of the editing and I'm super tired. I have no idea why we decided to do this during the last few weeks of our school semester. Dumbest idea I've ever had. Anyway, here's another timelapse video to keep you waiting.

Shade the Grey Production Photos

Finally got around to uploading a selected number of, not over embarrassing pictures taken during our filming. There's more to come though, so expect another timelapse video sometimes this week!

You can view the rest of the photos here!

Here we go!

The editing process for Shade the Grey is underway. Lots to do. Along with that, The New Paper, has extended the dateline for their film festival submission and I'm hoping we'd be able to make it.

Shade the Grey Timelapse

So, me and the guys over at REM are working on a short video titled Shade the Grey. Written by me of course. Makes me so damn proud and all that. Anyways, here's a link to a poorly done timelapse video I made of me, old school drawing one of the scenes for the storyboard. More to come!
