Ipoh Trip
August 3rd, 2010 | Published in Blog
Quick notes:
4am Woke up
5am KL Sentral rendezvous with Syukri (Cameraman)
5:30am Train left on time
8;30am Arrive Ipoh as scheduled
9:00am Taxi-man got lost
9:15am – 2pm Indulgence Restaurant
a. Met Mark & Mdm Julie Song, Amy Ng (Mass Comm graduate)
b. Set up camera at downstairs lounge
- Lighting was challenging.
- Getting the right shot was trial and error process
- Limitation of 1 light as opposed to 2 lights
- Recorded on hard disk, 60GB
- Microphones work flawlessly. Mic very sensitive, picked up traffic ambient sounds
- Half shot, head shot, zooming in while interviewing, different techniques
- Commands: Standby, rolling
C. Personnel
- Met Lee Cheng Hooi and Mr. Chin Sek Chuan (Ipoh manager)
- Met Gerard Ambrose (Portfolio manager, one word investment firm, 8-10 characters) KL Kepong & Batu Kawan didn’t invest!
- Jessie, restaurant manager
- Tan Sri Dato Lee Oi Hian interview was smooth. Pick out good points which builds story about Property Ipoh
- Chinese Chamber of Commerce, Mr. Lai… very careful person.
3pm – Went for shots (B-Roll) at Train Station, Indulgence outside shot, Airport (hello, goodbye) but most required shots are train station. Got Tambun posh / high end housing, very nice shots (3-5 good ones, as fillers)
Other footage of Ipoh scenery, about 3-4 along the journey to the different destinations.
D. To-do
In total, we have all the throw-ins and throw-outs required (train station). Voice over needs to be done ASAP between Intro & Julie (first interview)
Get Charts from Cheng Hooi (KLK on his laptop for his piece)
Hello, goodbye piece must be perfect. Shot enough footage for a cinematic appearance & departure from airport. (mark)
