A busy day again!!!
Held audition again..this is the 4th time...Holding audition is not easy..*damn tiring* final one tmr,,hee hee
it's fun though...i can see all kinds of pple..haaa ...*disappointing...the only singaporean who came today...can't make it...*geez* her mandarin sucks and still wanna come for a mandarin production audition...she was shocked when i tell her im fr sg as well....mmm..she tot im fr shanghai or taiwan...when i speak mandarin to her...gosh..dun think my mandarin is as good as theirs...maybe to her ...this is the standard lah...she has the cheek to say..cos singaporean's mandarin doesn't sound fluent and dun dress like that..and dun look like that..(i admit i was being mistaken many times fr other ctrs but not sg)..well, maybe they have a stereotypical image of how a singaporean looks like in their heads...mmm..she said singaporeans like her are more casual...mmm...what is she trying to say...*sounds like i look like a clown..well...im jus a little more colourful that her...that's all....haaa..
*Singaporeansssss....the casts who can make it for acting and language are all from taiwan, shanghai and malaysia....
* Education system need to be reconsidered*...Singaporeans' mandarin incomparable to other asia ctrs...They speak proper accented English and proper accented mandarin....Sometimes, jus feel Sorry for the "jack of all languages" Singaporeans (including myself) well, at least, i can say my mandarin is a lot better than many singaporeans...*sound overly confident*...nuh it's true...when i compare myself and the other singaporeans who are studying here...GOSH!!! haven met one that could speak better ...I feel ashame if i dun noe how to speak proper mandarin..Geez im a chinese man...jus can't understand why so many singaporeans are proud of their poor mandarin...ignorant I can say..incomparable to many fellow asians...Well, Singaporeans still living in their sheltered shell...not knowing that pple esp native chineses are truly considered as EFFECTIVELY billingual. (i may sound like i'm complaining 'politically') Pardon me..that's why i truly think..
Well, I do need to learn a lot from them..* Some of the 'deeper' chinese characters in the script..i dun know how to pronouce....haaa..*paiseh*..have to ask the other asst director fr shanghai...once pple know that im fr. singapore, the "poor mandarin" mentality jus appeared in their heads...haaaaaa..can't help it...the image singaporeans have..*SAD*
*feel the stress in the production team already* authenticity and good command of mandarin seems so impt for this mystery thriller directly adapted from the London's play..The Mousetrap... Reckon my mandarin is going to improve ....working with these pple..hope so! well, Wanna change to shanghai 1940s setting....*I LOVE it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!* I went wild when everyone agrees on the 1940s theme...can't hide my excitment!!!! *i admit i have slight obsession with nostalgic things* esp shanghai 1940s glamorous era....A fusion of the orient & the west!!! Oriental beauty wif touch of European influence!!!! Awesome!!!!
*Zhao Li(the other asst director ) said i'm crazy....haaa...Shit my excitment shoot up! when i heard he's going bk to shanghai to look for appropriate costume!!! I WANT cHEONGSAM as well!!!! how can an A.director act like that..he muz have tot...haaa....how i wish i can go with him...ARgHH...nuh...have to concentrate more on directing their acting...but but but but....hee..beautiful cheongsam!!!!!..haaa...force the costume pple to make for me...haaaa *nuh, not that evil* *grinning*
I can now imagine my Wong Kar Wai's *In the mood for Love* leading characters' in my play...hmm...expecting too much...haa...well, that's one of my goals to bring out the characters....set, costume & make-up.....v.impt!!!!....gonna be hard on costume, make-up & set team...they r all excited as well...haaa..though it's gonna be tough...heee..IT's POSSIBLE with PASSION!!!! okie, i shall stop rambling on abt my blah blah blah production...
