Alrights I shall say enjoy your freedom earthlings! Haha!

Pinnacle studios shoot ended yesterday. Left with OB. Felt weird. I'm leaving a place that I've been with the past 7 months. Plus minus 5 months of filming there. Nostalgic. A place i always wanted to leave as soon as possible after filming and a place which I didn't want to leave so soon yesterday. Thank You Pinnacle. I'll miss you. A few more OB scenes before I say goodbye to this wonderful show. :) Chalet tonight. Lunch with Di tomorrow. Am looking forward to 3rd Year brothers day. Heh. :) Will blog more about the history of brothers day tomorrow. :)

I really forgot that i've got work tomorrow! 730am East View Sec. Haven't been teaching for more than a month now. I guess I better go revise my work. There's post session after that! argh! Okay meeting korkorting to get my last few army items after that. Dinner with him then slack go out maybe.. hmm.

本地学生首创网上连续剧　办“红星大奖”

一群年轻人在资金、技术与经验匮乏的情况下拍摄了三部网上连续剧。有人批评他们制作不专业，也有人劝他们别浪费时间，但这群热爱戏剧的年轻人无畏嘲讽，只想借助拍戏把青春与理想完好纪录。


这群来自不同背景的青年三年前成立部落格，推出独立自制的网上连续剧"The Changing Point"，讲述年轻人在生命转捩点做出的抉择。受访监制兼导演苏朔安(21岁) 说，剧集并非学校作业，完全出自大家对戏剧制作的浓厚兴趣。


播映初期　劣评如潮

3年前，苏朔安招募了十多个对演戏有兴趣和懂得幕后制作的朋友，向学校借了摄像机，便开始利用周末时间进行拍摄。他当时虽然懵懂，却很有野心，一口气拍了十集之多。

剧集播出后，观众的负面反应令大家大受打击。朔安透露，一开始制作技术不纯熟，剪辑、画面处理和拍摄技巧都很生涩。许多观众看不过眼，在部落格留言板宣泄不满。这让制作团队意识到有群忠实网民正密切关注剧集。他们于是听取了观众的建议，加以改进，乘胜追击推出第二系列。


目前，网上连续剧每集点击率约3000人次。小商家也渐渐找上门，表示愿意赞助服饰。朔安说："演员的支持让我坚持把第二系列做得更好。播出后，好的评语多了，对我们是种肯定。"


预映延迟　网友"不爽"


如今，剧组正如火如荼拍摄名为《双尖塔》的第三部连续剧，讲述感化院内一群年轻人的故事。朔安透露，8集的连续剧，需耗费5个月拍摄。有一次女主角请假，导致拍摄进展被拖慢，原先安排的网上预映临时无法推出，结果引来观众反弹。有匿名网友便在留言板上指责："就算是网上连续剧，如果延后播出，也该事先通知观众。你们的做法非常不负责任！"


对此，剧组表示歉意，不过也希望观众网开一面，明白他们不是专业人士，需要更多时间协调拍摄工作。


演员会不会"嫌弃"网上连续剧格局小？"翻版红星大奖"又是怎么回事？


演员只想把戏演好

一部好的连续剧除了完善的剧本和纯熟的拍摄技巧， 更需要有才华的演员将剧本精神充分体现。17岁的黄超群是常驻演员之一，曾参与多部儿童剧的拍摄，和朔安合作已有3年。

在电视台拍戏，超群得到的角色多属配角或"咖哩菲"，拍摄独立网上连续剧，则有机会尝试当男主角的滋味。他认为，和同龄朋友合作，若对剧本或拍摄有意见，可畅所欲言地提出来。

网上连续剧格局小，收视率也远不及电视剧，超群却说："我们清楚看的人不多，不过大家拍戏不是为了成名。我们演技还嫩，如果急着上电视，反而会惹来更多批评。"


办"红星大奖"　提高演员士气　


电视台有年度娱乐盛事"红星大奖"，朔安也在学校讲堂举办颁奖礼，由幕后工作人员进行评选，颁发"最佳男女主角"和"最受欢迎男女演员"等奖项。


入围"最佳男主角"的超群认为，颁奖典礼的概念有些滑稽，毕竟剧组只有十几位演员。不过朔安说："我想肯定演员的努力，让他们的父母了解孩子每个周末都在做有意义的事。我也想让人知道，会演戏的演员不只出自电视台。"

This is my 1000th blog post here. It's awesome. Someone told me last night that i tend to choose who I like more. I feel that it's not completely untrue, but because, the ones i like are normally the best. :) I guess I have blogged about it quite a few times. I get judged and scrutinized more because i'm Sean. Sometimes I feel that if I ain't Sean, people would not judge me based on what they see on the surface. Being Sean is difficult. It seems that it's my job to make everyone happy, but people always seem to forget that i'm also human. I just hope my friends don't expect much from me, because, when it comes to work, it's still business at the end of the day. I would still choose the best and that will never change. Like what I always say, be happy with what you get to eat, for it may be taken away before you know it. I'm happy with what god has given me so far, and i've been eating my fair share. I'll work hard so that I can produce more food for my people and myself.

I really wonder sometimes, who have ever put themselves in my shoes? Who knows the hardships I went through? Who can take what i'm doing? Who have ever judged me as unfair? I wonder. Goodnights. :)
