yesterday

it was a long day.

early in the morning, i got a text from my main talent, YF. she is having high fever and can't make it for the shoot. i don't have much time to consider and finally came up with a decision.

i took up her role.

this was the second time i directed my own short film. the first one was at 2006. and this one is a lot tougher. i was not panicking, but i was stressed.

keep on being in the mood and getting out of it is not an easy task. utmost, i'm not prepared.

we were back schedule in the end, as predicted, and it finally finished without a car scene at 11p.m. five of us, exhausted and exploded (tang exclaimed that when i told her Raz asked if it was exhilarating).

the shoot is quite done except for the car scene that i'm going to do it later or tomorrow. but somehow, i feel like i'm still in a mess.

did i do the wrong decision of not postponing the shoot and be the talent instead?

then i thought, its no use to cry over spilt milk. as a matter of fact, its done. (though tang did advise on re-shoot)

i'd want to edit it as soon as possible, to see if i achieved the flow at least if not the acting that pumps in life to my story.

a pool of mud water... please get it cleared...
