Had lots of fun today at Clarke Quay today as we (Dorothy, Jing Wen and Jonathan) went to a Karaoke outlet and sang our lungs out. Hmm, I think this is the first time I have ever hear JW and Dorothy sing . They sound really good. And Jonathan? Well he's still Jonathan...hahaha well he's not bad either.

Who cares right?

When you go for Karaoke, you just wanna scream and sing like a maniac. At least that's how I sang.

Then afterwards we went up Fort Canning Hill to check out the scenery. It's really beautiful watching the sunset from that view. Wish I had recorded it...I brought my handycam but had forgotten the DV tape(oops).

Okay, that's about it, cya later!

Beauty killed the Beast

I never truly understood why he (Jack Black) said that.

Did he mean that Ann had unadvertantly set in the motion the events which gradually led to Kong's untimely death?

It is true that Kong could've escaped and ran away but where to? Could he have swam back to Skull island (even if he could find his way back)?

I think Kong realised that he was outside of his elements. He was King on his island. However out there in the manhattan jungle he was basically, a captive. It was fundamentally a situation that he knew would eventually head towards tragedy.

Kong was a not only a prisoner of circumstance but of love as well.

You could say the kind of love he had for Ann was primal. He offered protection and a beauty in his heart that is human. The kind that transcends form(?).

IMHO

I don't understand what's this attitude that my drawing teacher, Mr. Jiunn is talking about. I do get the idea in general but it's vague to say the least. I want to do well but I'm not sure I can get the right attitude for my fantasy figure.

Then there's claymation, sighs...I don't think our group can make the deadline. I really want to see the product of our hard work. SO frustrating.

Tea stained paper
I can't believe that I had to stained four pieces of A2 catridge paper with tea...one for me, 3 for my friends. Ahhh so back-breaking...and the end result seemed like an absolute waste of time, not to mention paper.

this is where I found some tips on making tea stained paper...

Okay I'm going to read my books now...bye

Hmmm...how am I going to complete my clay animation project....?

Everything is falling behind schedule(mine obviously...lol) my group's supposed to build the set today but we ended up conceptualising.

On the other hand, we experimented with paper clay. It felt good to have it between my fingers unlike superclay (another modelling clay) which was in my opinion - too oily.

Some groups were already shooting and most of them were using blue and green backgrounds. These type of backgrounds are good for inserting digital matte landscapes. (i think..)

We're the only team creating a real set...

I think it's great we're doing it old school (even though we're using a digital cam?) but I just hope it doesn't cost us too much time because unfortunately we have about two weeks left until the deadline.
