TPS Orientation Party: A Very Very Late Update

Late update, I know. Hehe.....
Our Orientation Party was held at 13 of March, also known to most people as last friday.


So what did we do?

Built towers out of straw. O.o










Some minor minigames. (Holes in straws. The real challenge, it would seem, was the less-than refreshing taste of Soy Milk without sugar)







Took part in a "recycling" project, if it can be called that, with our very own envriomentlist.


Played with alot of interesting gears.






Shot at things.








Later, some food. (Okay, "some" is a misleading term, I would prefer the term "overwhelming amount")

Jumped for the skies.






Great thanks for all that showed up.

So, any suggestions when should we will have a film-showing session in conjunction with the FilmAp club?

Films/Documentaries/Things to watch
On the list:
  • Manufactured Landscapes
  • Born into Brothels (Winner of the 77th Academy Awards)
  • Shutter? O.o (I'm scared some people would miss out on well-deserved sleep at night though)
  • I'm trying to get a documentary called "The Photographers" from National Geographic. link

Also a big (hmm, no larger font size...) thanks for showing up for the Taylor's Model Hunt finalist round. Anyone who wants to show off or share some of their excellent work is welcome to.

-Fong, or Saunder, or however you want to call me.

Details:
Event: TPS Orientation Party
Date: 13th March 2009
Day: Friday
Time: 3.30 till 9pm (or late!)
Venue: TUMC Cafeteria!!!
Price: FREE!!!!*

See ya all there!

Taylor's Model Hunt!

First of all, a BIG thank you to SAUNDER & QIAN WEI for helping out!!! (we didn't manage to grab a group photo, but, whatever)

Saunder got his thank you the day itself!!!



















*hint hint* guys (& girls, of course) there are many more oppotunities up for grabs! I need 6 more fellas on the 20th!


The day started with a row with somebody (it must always start that way) who didn't really know what was going on and only knew how to point her finger to give orders; which unfortunately for her doesn't work with us.

Despite that, we continued shooting with a simple set up of 3 lights and a white backdrop. Despite the crew being greenhorns (no other connotations intended, see above if you don't get it) they were great!

Some photos of us at work:








































Benazir and the crew were awesome as well! They helped us sort out stuff and helped us print the photos as I couldn't get an instant printer.
Bena & Crew

These are some of the takes from the day:

*added by Saunder.

Some of the models are really stressed...(it's not easy being in front of so many lights and gear.) Kesiannya. =P

Nice to see some people just doing casual things in front of the camera.(except doing so did make a rather large hole in Eric's backdrop paper)










NOTE: I NEED 6 MORE PEOPLE ON THE 20TH!!!

With love,
Eric Soo
