scrawl studios

cool.....everything is nice and cool...i love this feeling...so much.....

i feel that i'm now enjoying a nice spa after a long work.....my chefs preparing my favourite dish...my mansion is located up in the snow capped mountain...i can see some nice bamboos....10 oscars, 3 nobels, 7 golden globles, 12 grammy, 2 world cups, 33 golden horse, 8 mr universe, 99 cannes, 2490 crowbars, 99 worst dressed, 101 best dressed, 700 CG-Talk choice awards, 60 Times magazine cover, 45 olympic gold..all on my 10 storeys high mega shelf..... and 10 girls waiting (anxiously) inside my room....everything is jus right....muahahahahaaaaaa........

(okay, i've exaggerated how i feel ....)

aniwae, i shall talk about my attachment to Scrawl studios.

the company consists of up to 30 workers, including the bosses....quite big.....there's 2 pillars inside the work area...(why i mention that?).....they are purple in colour.....(sian....).....its rather round....(kk....)
so, yee long and hou yeung are in da hse! we are currently sitting closest to the counter which is near the gate...but not facing the gate of cos...we are not here to be the guardians of the gate...LOL.....we are here to learn FLASH! yup...before i'm going to talk abt flash 8, we actually took a test on the first day....may not be able to disclose the content...but its generally abt our ability to draw hand holdong an object , colour (pencils) sense, storyboarding, character design...perspective....ya tats the inside stuff...oopS!
then, huiying .....(one of the many females in Scrawl...2/3 are females...i find it weird somehow)
....took up the responsibility to teach us flash, a software that is very easy to use....(yes, the noob of all softwares say tt it is easy to use!)
right now, we r using flash to trace the character (pencil art) to vector art....simple....
however, i am slow........shit shit shit....i'm using mac, the mouse one button, mi half a brain...how to be fast?
they saw e softcopies of our sch and personal works.....they like our works (of coz, they do).....now we r waiting to be allocated to the right deparment for us to showcase our great talents.....
i lov the way i put it.....hahahahahaa

ya...bugis.....lots of food.....during the one hour lunch break.....we'll meet lixiong and zhiqun from VHQ....to eat together.....tats something i never thought i can do during IAP, i thought i'll be alone.....no way! working in bugis is never lonely....there, yl and I oso got to see yang chen ling (taiwanese singer, actress, host)....promoting her 'lesbian' movie....lol....

more fun to come!

Moving forward...

HELL, IT'S ABOUT TIME.... to blog.....(and to play starcraft of cos!)

i hav so much to say rite now! a new chapter of my life has just begun.....

first of all, my 3rd year's Final Year Project is fianlly over....3 months.....totally wild, tedious, fun, tiring, frustrating, inspiring, emotional, mind-blowing...tats all i can say...limited vocab....sian....
the project is not a failure...its not wonderful...its bittersweet....
why? my teammates and i expected to do something really nice...(everyone does think it tis way, esp me)...but well, life is unpredictable....i've learned and experiences something that i never thought will happen to me....its something once in a life time...i've live it to the fullest...
the outcome is not to my satisfaction(i'm really hard to please when come to story telling).....i've never managed a 3d project before tis, and ya....i pretty much screwed up the production pipeline....(laughed when typing...cos i made moi teamates suffer along with me)....

suddenly someone asked: i still un understand why it was a 'bittersweet' experience?

leehouyeung: hmm, the bitter part was that the outcome was not wat we want....the sweet part was that we've all gained valuable experinced in tis project tt all of us will never forget....its really bittersweet ya noe?

another person asked: so wat is the VALUABLE stuff u guys hav learnt? be more specific leh, director lee...

leehouyeung: cough cough~ let me summarise then....
lixiong - never work with lee hou yeung ever again
shihan - never work with lee hou yeung ever again
clara - never work with lee hou yeung ever again
huixuan - never work with lee hou yeung ever again
leehouyeung - never work with lee hou yeung ever again

my original fairy tale...

once upon a time, there lived a beast...who lived in the tower..37 storeys high....but he just prefer to live at the 33rd level somehow....aniwae, he awaits the beauty to turn him back into a prince.....(shiatz, its the beauty and the beast story isn't it? nvm, i love tt classic disney animation piece...so nvm....nvm...)
