My Life My Way

They say that a picture is worth a thousand words. What do you think of the following picture?



Ooh, I know what you think! Some of the possibilities that crossed my mind:


1. This fellow damn lansi face ar. Wanna bash it in!

2. Very gaya ar!!

3. Whoa, karate-ka! Looks so fierce *shudders in fear*

4. Huh? We won?? Yay, we won!!!




That's right folks. LA Productions participated in a video contest late last year, thinking that the prizes were cash (RM 8000 for 1st place, RM 3000 for 2nd place, and RM1000 for 3rd place). We missed out the fine print that says "prizes worth RM8000 (in form of digital products)". Well, if we won some camcorders, it'll be real helpful for our future shoots, multiple cameras on location!


Go check out the glory! (pooh, the only reason you [Malicious] are asking us to check the site out is because you guys won, pooh pooh pooh!!) The link is below.

We would also like to thank all our friends who voted (and made an effort to vote) for us, and supported us in any possible manner. Now which video did we submit? The one and only with a significant storyline to it of course!






Just remember not to steal the belt belonging to the guy in the picture or you might just get your neck snapped...... like me!

Thanks to all who supported us once again!

Likely Malicous, signing off from heaven because I got killed in the video =p

LA Productions introduces it self to CUM

CUM

How do you use this word? I can imagine a few examples.

1. "Cum la, join me at the cyber cafe now, we go play Left 4 Dead and pounce on some unsuspecting Survivors!"

2. The director of this short film cum cameraman.

3. Summa cum laude, or in English meaning with highest praise (cum meaning with).

Several of LA Productions guys were CUM-ing at Palate Palette, KL last night and managed to mingle around with some really nice people! And you'd be imagining now, what's CUM??? Check them out.

There were an abundance of short film makers, stage performers, students, and we were proud to be representing the minority of the film industry in Malaysia - fight and stunt choreographers!



Left to right: The 'Hey, wassup man? (Hong)', Emo kid (Terry), The dreamer is the real you (Choon), I haven't had any drinks and I'm high already (Daniel), "What the #^%* are you looking at?" (Garry)

So we were there, and we got to chat with interesting people. Nice to have met all of you whom we got to talk to.

To Juli of TheFactory, we're looking forward to seeing you on our Saturdays.

To Sani of EMP, hit us up when your show's ready.

To Kylie, keep on rocking and eating those oh-so-yuck-popcorn *shudder*

To Adeline, see you at the next capoeira event if we happen to be watching.

To the taekwondo instructor cum occupational therapist who's name eludes me at 3am, hit us up too!

To the guys who made the short film "Baby The Rain Will Fall", great job and hope to see more soon!

We had a great time.

Practice

I've always wondered why in the healthcare sector, there's this thing called 'medical practice'. Doctors put their knowledge to work everyday, calling it practice. So if everyday is a rehearsal, when is the real thing gonna come? I know, the whole argument is flawed, and it's just a play of words.

For us action performers, our 'practice' involved hitting each other in the face (not really) and striking the opponents' limbs till they become red! Check out Hong's arm at 0:42 of the video (or maybe because he's so fair, he turns pink when struck)!



Speaking of play of words, here's a joke (if you're offended by anything at all, do not continue reading, and we're not mainstream media, crude jokes are allowed).

"
In medieval England, there was this queen who could not be satisfied by her king (in bed of course), so she sought the kingdom's magician. He produced a stick, and gave the instructions "By commanding it 'Flying stick, flying stick, _________' (yes, wherever you want it to go), and behold it shall please you. To have it stop, just say 'Jingalashamistic' and back to its sheath it shall be". So the queen was happy for a long time.

One of her maidens found out after a while, and wanted to try out the excitement! So she went "Flying stick, flying stick, kiss my lips and make me happy!! ............... Oh dear! Oh my word!" (Just use your imagination). Alas, she did not know the magic word to stop the flying stick, and after saying "Stop! No more! Away! Shoo!" did not work, she started to try escaping from it. As she ran towards the castle guard outside, she told him that a flying stick was chasing her. And his response in disbelief??

"Up my @r$e!"
"
Thank you for bearing with me. I had a frustrating day so far.

Screenshots of Putrajaya's Putra Perdana Park

LA Productions recently paid Putra Perdana Park a visit. It's a nice place, really....that is if you minus the extreme heat wave and the smell of manure laid by the gardeners in the park. I mean, the smell's everywhere!
Anyway, we were all over the place, having arrived at the park at 1430 hours on Sunday. The park is actually quite well maintained, but the water features were out of commission and under renovations works... and that gave us the opportunity to jump into the water features and have some fun!


Believe it or not, we didn't really plan out much of a storyboard this time, and we just made up a lot of things on the way. I guess shooting really ate into us, and we now know what to prepare for in general. After having some prepostorous ideas here and there, we were already shooting when we were supposed to warm up. The sun already did it's job, and gosh, THE SUN SCORCHED OUR SKINS! I mean, look at how we were suffering already!
You can see the heat wave everywhere! It was so hot that all of us started to run around like madmen going berserk after lying under the sun being dormant for a couple of secs.
But you know what? having jogged and run around Putra Perdana Park, made me realise how similar this felt when I was playing Left 4 Dead. You know, that zombie game which 4 survivors had to blast their way past zombies across towns and some forest area, with those special zombies that could either puke on you and cause other zombies to be attracted to you, or pounce on you from some far off lamp post, and even grab you with it's super elongated tongue and drag you across the screen?
Yea, here comes an angry zombie!
Stay tuned for more.
