Day 16

Original plan was that I am the main cameraman. Due to my injury, Gary took over.
We shot Nafisah's segment today at the art studio at 5th floor. We dropped the idea of the reporter approaching her. We shot her with Zaihan beside her, fiddling with the clay with her. After that she would be interviewed at another corner of the studio. Footages of the clay works were taken too.
I guess Naf was tired and Nervous during the interview. She couldn't remember the script, so we had to write it on paper and place it behind the camera to let her read.
She told us take she is more of a practical person than theory person. I told her to sound more professional in the sense that when people are looking at or listening to her interview they can see that she is confident and familar with her work.
I tried to make her smile during one of the takes by smiling at her throughout the take. She burst out laughing in the end and i got reprimanded by Gary. I am sad because i got scolded but happy to see that Gary is more serious than me! Wow.
Ya, in the end my team felt that the shot was ok. I guess she tried her best. My team complained that my direction standard set too high. Haha.
We took some still shots for the animated sequences.
Met Justin (lecturer)in the art studio while shooting. He told me he has the same birthday as me. Talking about birthday i injured my thumb on my birthday. To add on to that, Justin told me Paris Hilton also have the same birthday. I groaned and comforted myself that Michael Jordan has the same birth date too.
I had to go for Justin's class, so i left my team.
First day of trying to do production with my left hand only. So sad can't help out as much as i am supposed to.
