Karma – Another Crappy Project

Okies, as i mentioned before, that im in the middle of creating another short film.

Well yesterday, out of nowhere suddenly came this idea on the rough storyline bout my next project.

Owhh, btw, i called it Karma, if u check my previous post, i did mentioned that my next short film will be about Karma(the first one was Deja Vu)

So, i wrote down the rough storyline and possible characters as well as locations. Emailed it to mira and also YM! ammar about it.

Mira YM! me about the storyline and he said its an interesting storyline.

As i said, its still a rough idea about the movie, so we might need to sit down together n discuss further regarding the storyboard n script.

At least, i am confident on this storyline…huhuhuhuhuu….hopefully people can easily understand what im trying to present(okies…dun ask me why, but so far, any theater or short movie that i directed, most of the people don’t understand what im trying to prove…T_T)

Okies…just ignore that…

What i can confirm now is, there will be lots of fight scene……i guess…..hahahahahahahahahahahaha

okies…till next update…

Another Short Film?

Just now, suddenly my old friend aka my mentor n sifoo YM! me. Asking me to play an online game. Then suddenly, he asked me:

rush mira: mau bikin short film lai tak?

N i was like…………Yesssssssssssssssssss!!!!

Of course coz i was thinking bout creating another short movie since end of last year.

So we discuss the theme….and possible storyline…

This time, i leave it to him to create the storyline as i sux big time on the previous short film….

We were thinking about a fight scene, and i do really mean a real fight scene…..

Yg sebat org sampai pecah kepala, terajang org tak ingat dunia nyer fight scene. hahahahahaha…berangan la neh…

Anyway…from the preliminary discussion, we going to focus on angle instead of effects. A lil bit of Guy Ritchie style with some Mike Takashi touch, combined with our own recipe…..

So nothing yet, not sure bout the team, but Mira will bring 2 guys with him, 1 editor n 1 cameraman…(Jaja, his fren)

As for me, i’ll bring in Ammar on this one.

Most probably next week we going to start discussing the rough storyline and come out with the budget list….

This time we are not making it for any contest….just something to experiment with….

So….wait for the next update….

Btw, here are some of my lame HDR attempts, trial n error with Photomatic:

HDR Attempt 1 with Tone Mapping

HDR Attempt 2

HDR Attempt 3

HDR Attempt 4 with Exposure Blending

Software i use: Picnik and Photomatic

Well, its lame, i know….sigh…need better quality image….but still…when got quality image, photomatic crash due to insufficient memory…wtf!!! 2gb dy…

I guess, i still need photoshop to process the RAW image first….before i can edit it from photomatic….sigh

ICE Upgrade!!

Last month, my blaupunkt Head Unit died on me. Sent it to Proton to check, n they told me the Head Unit kaput. I was like, WTF!!! its only been a year n the Head Unit already kaput. They tell me they going to sent it back to Blaupunkt(in Penang) to claim warranty. I ask them, how long would it take?

2 Weeks.

Here i am, a month after sending the Head Unit, still no news from Proton. Call them? Im getting tired of calling them. Luckily, Slaxe loan me his previous stock head unit for a while.

Went to Drex’s shop to fix the problem with my headlamp, Ali offered me his component set. At first it was just the component set, Sony Xplod, but then, he started to make me an offer for the component set and also Kenwood Head Unit.

As usual, the poisoning process which took around 2 days, n i decided to buy it from him, 1 Sony Xplod Component Set and also 1 Kenwood Head Unit.

And now, im a happy men.

The good part was, i drive much slower now as i would like to enjoy the music inside my car more. Next upgrade would be some amps, and woofer……perhaps…

Engine Wash + Nano Mist + Complimentary Car Wash

Last monday, me n a few friends went to Sunway Pyramid. Our purpose to have our dinner at Ole Ole Bali. Reach the parking and could hardly find any. Since my car currently dirty, i decided to stop by at CARS and asked them regarding the car wash. Im looking forward to wash the engine since i never did that before. So they quote me RM13 for the car wash(non member) and RM50 for the engine wash. Suddenly i saw another thing which attract my attention, the nano mist. I’ve been facing problem with water coming in my car since i change the front speaker and reused the original bracket from proton, this cause the leaking and everytime it rain, it will cause me a problem especially with the odor. So i decided to take the nano mist spray which cost me RM28.80. Since i took the Nano-Mist and Engine wash, they gave me a complimentary car wash, thus it only cost me RM78.80 for the whole package. Here are the results, mind the quality of the picture, i took it with my not so powerful camera phone:
