[Blog] untitled

i arrived back in singapore late last night.. and was greeted with some news. in fact, i did the phone interview that same afternoon while i was still in perth. i thought i wanted to blog about it.. but i guess you guys beat me to it..

something that bordered on assumptions.. which effectively (indirectly) demolished my two characters and erased all my efforts. an assumption which also questioned the professionalism of a strong production team. a conclusion that was made even before my speaking character and also my second role appeared.

how did it feel?
it stinged.
it hurt so very much.

it somehow hurt so much also because the viewing of the entire drama hadn’t even been completed, and yet there was such a comment that was very cruelly made.

however, i am thankful that as i logged on to this blog, i read comments that encouraged me. also in paul chan’s blog
http://community.mediacorp.com.sg/TV/CS/blogs/baguatv/archive/2008/11/28/14-the-little-nyonya-uncensored-14-mins-video-clip.aspx
and The Little Nyonya’s website blog
http://littlenyonya.mediacorptv.sg/blogs.htm

i just want to thank all of you who believe in me. in fact, before i even started filming and working on this project, i had all your encouragements in mind. i had the production team in mind.. because you all believed in me, i wanted to do this such that i won’t let you down. because you all believed in me, your encouragements built a very strong foundation for me to work upon. so i want to thank all of you. for standing by me.

because you all continue to believe in me, it lifted the pain of these remarks. i cried, i let it out, but now i’ve recovered from it. so thank you all..

[Blog] news back home..

it’s been a pretty busy week.. after the anniversary gala on the 23rd, i had to fly to australia for a photoshoot on the 24th.. i’m still here (in Kalbarri to be exact).. it’s a beautiful place and it’s extremely relaxing.. amazing scenic places and i believe equally stunning scenic photographs that you all will be able to see later this month (when it’s published)

i received a call today informing me of some wonderful news.. record viewership ratings for the launch of episode one of The Little Nyonya. i’m extremely happy.. and it more than made up for how lousy i felt for being away when the drama started. i just hope everyone enjoys it.. i sincerely do.. =)

i just thought i wanted to also thank everyone for leaving such encouraging messages for me. i truly appreciate it, and i can’t say enough how much it means to me.. thank you all. i’ll be back soon.. and hopefully be able to post some more photos.. (apparently i’ve exceeded the bandwidth for photobucket..so the photos are temporarily gone)

hoping the photos will all be up soon.. =)

拍戏四个月 娘惹美食最怀念

新传媒新闻报道,以土生华人文化为背景的新传媒年度重头剧《小娘惹》即将登场,剧中演员都以传统娘惹服装亮相记者会,畅谈他们的拍戏经验。

经过了四个月的拍摄,剧中男主角戚玉武在杀青后,最怀念的竟是娘惹美食。

戚玉武表示,“在拍戏的时候比如说我们有吃到正宗的娘惹菜,那时候拍戏的时候就觉得很好吃,有时候都忘记要演戏了。”

而在剧中经历两个年代,欧萱在饰演聋哑的娘惹姑娘,挑战最大。

欧萱表示,“她没有就是对白来帮助,以眼神、以对手的交流,然后又要设计自己的手语,而且那时候手语又不是一个standard,是要自己创作。”

除了能在电视上观赏精彩剧集,观众也将能通过网络以及手机视像通讯第一时间观看独家内容。

新传媒制作业务部高级经理林斯音表示,“我们是放在网上还有3Gmobile,在电视上是看不到的,我们特别就是有另外一组人来写就是剧本、 制作。演员是一样的。”

长达34集的新传媒台庆巨作将在本月底,通过8频道和大家见面。

My TV memories… *Exclusive videos!

MediaCorp TV

What do stars like Yvonne Lim, Jeanette Aw, Joanne Peh, Qi Yuwu and Desmond Tan remember about the 45 years of Channel 8 programmes?

Jeanette AwWith Channel 8’s 45th anniversary coming up this Sunday, we pry into the artistes’ memories to find out the dramas, variety shows and stars that still hold dear to them.

The Anniversary Gala will be telecast ‘live’ this Sunday Nov 23, 2008 at 7pm on Channel 8. The hosts for the event are Guo Liang, Quan Yifeng, Michelle Chia and Dasmond Koh and it’ll boast a record-breaking 200 stars in one single show!

Jeanette Aw

“The first local variety programme that comes to my mind right now is the match-making show Jin Tong Yu Nü Yi Xian Qian. I don’t know why the impression is so strong but the show is really quite a classic! I still remember there was a door panel dividing the male from the female, and the door would open to reveal both parties to each other. Now that I think back on it, it would take a lot of courage for someone to take part in a show like that now! And I remember it was reported that a couple who met on the show really got married! The show was very sincere and I think it’s that factor that attracted viewers and made it into such a success. I remember the female host Huang Yuling’s ‘curry puff’ fringe and though I didn’t copy it, I remember it was always so neat! It was very representative of that era.”
