I indulge in self entertainment. No, not that sort.


Well, even if it's THAT sort of self entertainment, I wouldn't be writing about it here. It is purely for personal satisfaction.

I'm talking about my occasional appearance for adverts, independent films and free-to-air dramas. With my inappropriate for camera looks, disproportionate physique and ungainly gait, I do have to say that luck played a huge part in me getting roles as an Extra. Or as they like to make it sound better, Talent.

I was even in an HPB shoot for the National Steps Challenge. Some food truck thingy. I didn't get to try the food, had to return that yummy smelling packet...



Heck, even my hand was chosen to hold the iPhone for that steps counter shot (0:36). 

I'm suaku, I know

The amazing thing was that it only showed a green screen so that they could take their time to decide what to superimpose later on. I had to hold the phone steady, to make their job easier in the back end. Most stressful part of the filming that day.

Looking back at a past filming, maybe my wardrobe should have more colours. Apparently I like blue, a lot.
CID in the house!
Think this was a couple years back for a Starhub TV shoot, an independent drama called Jump Class. And was probably my first real shoot, having interactions with some relatively well-known actors. Wang Yu Qing and Zhang Wen Xiang, who were both consummate professionals through and through. Wang Yu Qing was even continually practicing his lines, albeit with different variations and intonations to find which best suits the scene. I had to arrest him in one scene, that really believable bad guy.


The last couple of forays into Mediacorp were for a Ch8 drama, where I had the greatest pleasure of sharing the scene with Joanne Peh and Yao Wen Long. Can't remember the title now, also cos mine was such a bit part that I think even I would miss it, but do click on the link, and add some likes to my instagram. Followers too. Blatant advertising.

Well, that's about it for now, though I did have a scene for this #WhyBeTowkayTan shoot. But it was mostly the back of my head. 
 
I napped and snored on this sofa


Not really complaining since I was hungover and really needed to close my eyes. I dun think it's out yet, since it was only filmed a couple of Saturdays ago.

Signing off,
