WORKSHOPS: 

1. PERFORMANCE: Pearlly Chua - accomplished theater and film actress

2. SHOOT: Loh Aik Khoon - producer, educator, industry practitioner
   • "Lights. Camera. Action!" This is a beginner level workshop. In this session participants are shown the basics of using a camera and lighting equipment. This is an activity based session and participants will be guided through a short filming process and be given a chance to put some of the tips they've learnt to use.

      

3. SCORE: Desmond Moey - accomplished and celebrated composer

   • It is often said that visuals are for the mind, and audio is for the heart. I sincerely believe it to be true. The emotional experiences we feel, when we view a movie, are affected largely by the music, and the song. Let's have a casual chat on how we can introduce music-song to films. Come get tips and ideas in this short session. We will introduce you to wider connections relating songwriting (lyrics and music).
