I had my first shot at acting! And in the next sure-to-be-highly-rated drama series, 未来不是梦, starring RuiEn, Elvin Ng, Shaun Chen, TayPingHui, Jessica Liu etc.
But well, just as a calefare aka extra.
But it was so fun. I guess both YS and I have good camera sense--we were always looking out for the camera angles, and strategically place ourselves opposite the camera to increase chances of being captured. For all the effort put in, I'll be a little disappointed if I don't see myself onscreen.
I realise it's such a tedious process to film such a short segment. I didn't know each conversation has to be filmed separately and repeatedly at different angles, and they copy-and-edit. I had always assumed that they have more than 1 camera to shoot the single conversation from different angles. But Nope, only 1 camera, so the actors must repeat again for the camera to take from another position. (and after watching an episode of 小娘惹 after my calefare stint, I could now realise some not-so-well-edited conversation parts). It takes 2 hours to film a segment less than 5 minutes. How tough it is!
It's gonna be an Engineering-themed drama, which explains why they were at NUS Engine. And I was so glad to have asked to take a photo with the cool RuiEn. (She's veeeeery slim!!).
This was taken at the 'Career Fair' Scene.
And here's Shaun Chen in the 'Career Talk' Scene. Really admire how actors memorise pages of technical stuff and regurgitate them word-by-word, and able to start from any part of the script as and when requested by the producer.
I'll definitely remember to catch Episode 3 when it airs in the not-so-soon next year.
人生是黑白的.
