The new challenge KITAI

Hi guys, I've gone through a busy October and November! My days are packed with thesis and assignments from college, and I did choose a research about the topic of " Which of the Experience and Education is more important for a Public Relations Practitioner?" hmm sounds boring right? Haha. FYI, I'm now a advanced diploma student from TARUC, and I'm in my second last semester before going to UK for further study. Wee =D

Oops sorry seems like I'm already off topic. Paiseh :P 

Yup, today I actually wanna talk about my new movie... *drum rolls* .. "KITAI" ( which means Betrayer in eng )

It's a Malay movie which is produced by MIG (Metrowealth) Malaysia, in the genre of Comedy Action. Yup!! It's a an Action movie XD and I have to fights with the bad guys too! Aries girl knows how to do it :/

There are three heroes in the movie, who are three superstars from the Malay Entertainment industry --> Farid Kamil, Sam Shaizey and also Fezrul Khan. All of them are very good actors and received many awards as Abang Sam is the most Popular Artist in Anugerah Berita Harian 2012.

The playful Fezrul Khan.

And me, I'm really excited ( and got shocked) when I know that I'm the only girl character in "Kitai", which means that I'm also the heroin in this movie. 

 Chit chat w Abang Fezrul and Abang Sam during the press conference day of "Kitai".

Although this is not the first time that I take part in Malay movie, but this is really a shocking news for me as at first I'm really afraid of my own capability in the Bahasa Malaysia ( Malay Language). Like what I've said in the astro Arwani interview, I can talk BM, but not that fluent, and yet my role in this movie have to talk a lot.

This is really a big suprise for me as I never thought that they will choose me for this character. But they chance is always for the person who got ready, so I accepted the job. 

Dialouges is a very important element in the story, it leads the emotions, the storylines, and brings out the personalities of character. I know I must not mess it, not with the senior actor, not with my manager who always back up me, not with the producer who gave chances to me, not with my friends and family who encouraged me alot, and not with everyone of you who supported me in this journey. 

Life is a long journey and and we must go through unexpected challenges; It is better to conquer the fear rather than running away, right? =)

Experiencing my first time to wear "Selendang" during the prayer session of Muslim (scarf for cover over the hair, it's a culture for Malays); it's really fun to experienced other cultures in Malaysia.

The shooting will start very soon, and I'm now doing preparations for the shooting also practicing to fight XD in the movie. May be someday I can become junior of Dato Michelle Yeoh? Haha. 

Teaser for movie "Kitai".

Wish lucks for my guys! 

You can comment about your thoughts too :) love and hugsssss

2013 金筝奖 Golden Wau Awards

50 年的电影梦， 得以在50 年后的今天金光破晓，启杨翱翔。
马来西亚电影业历史性的一刻，就在昨夜的 Bangsar Pullman Hotel 上演。
2013 金筝奖 Golden Wau Awards，是马来西亚电影人50 多年来终于破茧的成果。

真的很荣幸能跟一班艺人朋友们，导演们，幕后工作人员们 - 这一群因梦想而伟大的“造梦者”们一同见证这么感动的时刻。

在金筝奖发布之前，我一直都在想，马来西亚的中文电影该何去何从？
身在马来西亚，华人电影的市场本来就小，资金人才都苦苦寻求。
且说当年的《初恋红豆冰》，那么的不容易，无论在前期或后期制作都不断遭挫。
但造梦者就是越挫越勇！

之后开拍的甚多部中文电影，个人偏爱《甲洞》，且不说里面有我的男神许亮宇(XD)，但从故事内容，编剧，剪接，灯光，大部分演员都呈现了一定的水准，可说让我眼前一亮！

啊，我好像离题了！
赶快先po几张昨天的照片，哈哈！

感谢 The Edge Studio Calwin Wong 的发型赞助，简洁高贵的马尾出自他们手里!
简单的脸妆是自己画的，采用甜美烟熏风。

到场之后就是红地毯啦！

遇见了很多很多的圈内好友，在等待颁奖典礼开始之前，已成为惯例的Cocktail Party。

差不多一整个Cocktail Party 都在吃，在我身旁的当然有当晚很漂亮的美人鱼公主妹妹 Joey 梁祖仪。

大约八点三十分， 颁奖典礼正式开始。
随着一项项的奖项，感受到了马来西亚电影人的团结和坚持。
场面真的很温馨，很感动。尤其是在颁发一些幕后制作的奖项，例如导演，电影美术，妆发服装，灯光，音效，剪接；当他们一个个上台领讲的时候，也许电视机和台下的观众对他们很是陌生，可在我们眼里，这些平时比我们早开工却又迟放工的伙伴们，实在也熟悉不过的。

看着平时为了做好电影无暇打扮自己的他们，今天一个个美艳动人，帅气逼人的上台拿奖，心里真的好感动，眼泪在眼眶里打转，久久不能释怀。

终于，他们的辛劳有了归属。
虽然我只是一介新晋演员，但我感恩自己生在这个时代，这个马来西亚电影终于破茧的时代。

Days with Malay Production

Hi Everybody,

I'm currently doing a shoot for a Malay Drama called "Dia Suamiku" means "My Husband" in English, so while waiting for a few more scenes before it's my turn I decided to blog something about the entertainment industry :)

In Malaysia entertainment industry, there's only a very niche amount of Chinese artistes that would venture into a Malay drama/movie production. Probably its because of the language barrier or the working ethnics.

As for Chinese production company, their schedule is always very hectic as it may go up to 20 scenes per day or even 26 hours continuously(Which i've experienced it). Plus if you're the main character of the drama, there wont be any time for you to rest because everyone wants to end the shooting the soonest.

It a very tough job, I know some of you may think that Actors or actresses gets to sit on a coach and being served like a King or Queen but I'm sorry to say but it only happens in Hong Kong or China Movie production company. There is one word which can describe the working ethic of Chinese production company in Malaysia is:-

FAST

If you're a workaholic and loves to work efficiency, Chinese production company is totally suitable for you ;)

无间行者 The undercover (Ntv7) - Me as the bad bad girl 慧君

Okay, back to a Malay production company :)

They are always a very relax and laid back type of style when it comes to working.They will even treat the artist with tea-break in the evening and you can have splendid of time to prepare for your upcoming scenes. I LOVE THE FOOD they serve during the shoot. They have many variety and delicious food for everyone including the crews unlike in a Chinese production company we always eat tabao :(

Honestly I've never thought I would venture into a Malay entertainment industry sebab Bahasa Malaysia saya tak berapa baik :P , sometimes I find it difficult to understand their dialogues which makes it even harder for me to act/react on it :(

The best part is my current company MIG , 98% of their productions are Malay dramas and movies which means I have to adapt and learn from this new environment. Who knows hopefully years down the road I will be more success in the Malay entertainment industry :P Muaha ha ha ha ha ha he he he he

with Yana Samsudin, the famous Superstar in Malay's Entertainment industry.

Its a very tough decision because I have lots of challenges to go through. This might even effect my career as I have to give reaction while memorizing the dialogues in the same time. ISH ISH ISHHHHHHHH

But it will be okay, as I keep telling myself that I have to always challenge myself with things that I'm not familiar with so that in that way I can become much more stronger! :)

Although there are differences between the various entertainment industry, I have the utmost respect for people who sacrifice for the love of arts :) They might not earn big money but yet they still hold on tight with their dreams! SALUUUUTEEEEEH!!

Alright ITS A WRAP because I have to continue my shoot! Bye love you all ! Muuackzzzzzzzzzz

Nah, Just a Korean Braid that my hairstylist did to me today =)

Name me Student-Actress.

Life.

Hmm. Just feel that I should write down my life journey so that I can still recall them when I'm 70 years old. *and due to my poor memory, it's better to write it down in case I forgot who dumped me when I was young LOL

Acting ac couple with Lawrence Wong in my first movie - "Glorifying Love"

It's been 3 years that I joined into entertainment industry.
This acting journey has made me a little bit different from the others that similar to my age. 
Yea I always admitted that life is too short and too bored to become an ordinary person. 人不轻狂枉少年嘛！ 
So, I think that I'm a very lucky girl who got the chances of being an actress in my life compared to others =) Well, will talk more about the Student-Actress life in the next post kay?

Making faces in "Glorifying Love"

And because many of you are curious about an Student-Actress life, I'm gonna reveal few facts in life of a Student-Actress.

1. Never get enough of sleep. *If the exams and shooting are crashing, you might even can't sleep for few days.

2. People might think that you are a rich arrogant young girl. 

3. Always got shocked when people suddenly ask for photograph in the University. *Especially you are very focus in reading or doing assignment. But I still love you guys kay? just got shocked only. Please do come and ask for photograph or say Hi to me, I love that!  =)

4. Get to know many great/successful/amazing people in the community much more earlier than your classmates. 

5. Hard to blend into new gang of friends in the class. *You will be late for class, or may be sometimes need extra help in doing assignment due to busyness. Not many people nowadays are willing to share their tips to help a teammate that only can provide a little bit of effort, no matter what is the reason. But I'm lucky because I have one =)

6. Your must be well manner in the public, no matter is a public event or private event. *You might get comment on your fb post "I saw you at Cheras XXX, you are digging your nose LoLL" 

Not-so typical Aries here I am.
