Drama & Theatre II

ok.....here i just wanted update my blog because suddenly i have a free time eventhough im in the middle of the examination weeks......anyway....here i just want to show and share about my drama and theatre final assesment....

the technicians during the performance

actually there is not much to talk about.....but what i liked about the drama and theatre so much is the people that i worked with.....i love working with them as most of them i can say "masuk air"....

the director monitoring the rehearsal...

during the rehearsal

before the performance

the story we picked for our drama presentation is Tuah and Jebat : The Mafia.... the drama is played using the concept of realism and experimentalism(i dun want to explain what they are).... we performed our drama on the 7th November

to reduce pressure before the performance

the director and his assistant

we have a great time during the rehearsal and performance eventhough we faced many difficulties and problems on the way......but its all worth it.....eventhough im not on of the actors......but working as a technician is considered as an important role for the production....

Tuah Jebat Production....its a wrap

after the performance, my ko-q drama & theatre II is finally over and i hope to obtain a solid A for this......thats all for now, until the next time.....salam

Digital Art Competition 09 Final

"Harmonizing Art and Technology"
thats the theme for this year Digital Art Competition(DAC) and i can proudly say that im one of the finalists for the photography category.....

my 1st artwork

my 2nd artwork

this is the first time ever that i enter a photography competition and i wasnt expecting anything much....but i was surprised to hear that they choose me to become the one of the finalists and present my artwork at the final presentation....also, i will be representing my university as the finalists are from utp and usm

so, on the 10th of october, i went to the final presentation with a nervous heart....of course im nervous because i never ever presented anything in a competition....so, this is my first.....but the nervousness suddenly dissapear when i got the mic....i dont know why im becoming very confident during my presentation and i got a few good comments from the judges....

during the presentation

but the competition was fierce....i cant even guess who will be the winner....and at the end of the day, i manage to win the 2nd runner up prize.....eventhough i didnt win, but i was purely satisfied with my performance and it is normal because usually people dont win with their first try, they learn from their experience....

2nd runner up is not that bad right...

im looking forward for the next year's competition and i will also try to improve my skills in photography and also presentation skills....thats all for now....until the next time....salam

Media Class

audio....on,
lighting....on,
prompt....display,
stage...set,
floor...ready,
now the ceremony can begin......

i never thought that handling the technical side of an event can be so complicating and so complex until i joined media class on the 5th of september....

mic and mixer

"i always love technical stuffs and media as well.....and i would like to explore more of it"
thats the respond i gave when they i asked me why i joined the class....the class was held at mph and for a lengthy 12 hours but it is very worth it as i was able to learn lots of new things....

this class is specially made for teaching those who wanted to become a crew(those who handle the technical side of an event) and one of the reasons that i wanted to join this class is that i wanted to experience how does it like to become a crew....

ok....the technical parts of an event i basically divided into 5 parts....floor, stage, audio, lighting and projection(as i mentioned earlier)....and was led by the floor manager....the floor manager in charge of everything and can control everything on the technical side....while stage manager control everything on the stage such as the flow of performers, mic, and light adjusting....

one of the crew explaining about the audio system

the other 3 parts sit in the control room led by control room manager.....for the audio side, the audioman in charge of controlling the audio channel from various sources such as microphones, computer, tape recorder and many more to the output, which is the speakers.....

the lightingman controls the lighting whether on the stage or on the floor and there are many lamps that they must handle such as parcan, cyclorama, freshnal, dimmer and many more....
the last part is the projection controlled by prompter....anything that is displayed on the screen is controlled by them and its not easy as it sounds because there are many rules to be obeyed and difficulties to be handled.....

participant + crew

at the end of the day, i was satisfied and happy to learn all of these stuff and gain new experience in the technical side.....but sad to say, i cannot enter the crew unless i sacrifice my post as a photographer in the creative multimedia department......after long consideration......i decided to hold my post as a photographer since i love photog more than becoming a crew......
eventhough that i will not become a crew and handling all these equipments.....but i was happy and satisfied to know all this knowledge.....
ok thats all for now.....until the next time.....salam

From IXUS to EOS

from 8 mp to 12 mp,
from compact to dslr,
from Ixus to Eos,
from Canon to Canon......

finally after been using compact camera for all my life.....i finally able to take it to the next level....a digital single lens reflex camera also known as DSLR....on 18th july 09, i bought(well, actually my dad bought) a camera known as Canon EOS 450D at Low Yat Plaza.....i sacrificed my evening from watching MU vs Malaysia for this purpose......but its really worth it

with this new camera, i think im ready to improve and enhance my photography skills after years of learning basics and fundamentals of photography from a compact camera.....not to say that compact camera is a piece of junk, but your options are really limited when using it.

i have used many cameras before this one
here are some brief history bout the camera that i worked with...

Olympus Camedia D-390

Canon Ixus 75
Canon Ixus 860IS

Canon Eos 450D(now...)

if you want to see some of the output that i produced by these cameras, you may visit http://www.flickr.com/photos/ehsanphotog/

after aquired this camera, i hope that im able to produce better images, enhance my skills and fill my free time more....
ok....thats all for now.....until the next time.....salam

on the 22nd june, i finally made it to mjsc kuala lipis.....after more than a year i never been there.....and the best part of all....i dont have to take the bus....bawak kete....yeay

my journey begin at 10am after waiting 2 long hours for isyam n the gang to arrive at tmn melati.....well, cant really blame them becoz they're not from kl after all.....we actually arrived at lipis at 12.10(i really cant believe that it only took me 2 hours to get there)....we arrive exactly with the other two groups....(well, not excatly la coz they actually waited for us, hehe).....smpai2 je kat lipis, first thing first, spm certificate n sijil2 tertunggak....

me with izaan

bnyk gile visible changes dlm infrastructure maktab compared to my time there....the changes is mainly due to my batch excellence in spm....the juniors should be very grateful to have the pleasure based from our hardwork....antara benda2 yg baru ialah jambatan ke ds, astaka, kafe baru, susur gajah, ayaq terjun n some other more.....

on the new lipis 'skybridge'

whats the point of going to maktab without seeing your teachers rite?.....after all....they played a very important role in my batch success....we jumpe cikgu and chitchat2 for a very long time....topic? as usual la....how ur life after school, study kat mane, course ape, beza x idop kat mktab n kat u.....smpai citer pasal mara xde duit nk anta student ke oversea pon ada....mmg mcm2 la citer....mklum la..rindu kat cikgu...huhu.....tp bnyk cikgu dh pindah...yg tu je xbest..

our chemistry teacher ckgu azah

miss hanita the head of science department aka physics teacher

we enjoyed ourself too much there until we dont have time to eat.....we finally went back home at 4.30pm after taking our certs, meeting with the teachers and juniors and posing for the camera here and there around the maktab..hehe....

we made history...

we stopped at genting sempah for about 4o mins for my 'lunch'(breakfast, lunch and dinner for the others....hehe) and arrive at kl around 7.20pm.....sori for those who tumpang me coz i cant send u to the nearest komuter station due to the kl's heavy traffic(plus i dun know the way...hehe).....overall, the trip is very fun and really worth it....i really hope that i can go there again...hehe...ok, thats all for now....until the next time...salam
