Taylor's HIV AIDS Theatre Fest 2008

Taylor's HIV AIDS Theatre Fest 2008
8/9/08 and 9/9/08 were the date of the theatre fest. My group had fall on the second day which was 9/9/08. Its a Moral project by our respective lecturer, Mr.Adrian. As u can see above picture show that my group had won the Merit Award. Merit Award is for the group which they did well in some part of the theatre but somehow there is some weakness in their drama. It might be either their technique problem or acting or voice projection or prop movement. Example like some good in acting but technique problem such as lighting not did well. On the first day, the Champion was clearly shown as they did very well. Its a dance theatre where not dialog with only acting, lighting and music. They all act followed the music and the light. And without talking, they clearly shown wat they try to tell the audion's. Anyways there is another group on the first day which jz slightly lower marks then the first group. All the actors and actresses not really a good speaker but to overcome their problem, they act as typical pasar style. And they did it very well. Well done to both of them.
On the second day, where my group gonna perform. On the same day, we also had our practical class which something bad happen and all of us were in unhappy mood. Anyways, we were the third group to perform. So we jz get ready and wait for our turn. There were 8 group performing on tht day. After my act, I know I had been nominal as the Best Actor but when I saw the last performance by BDH students, I know their main actor gonna get it because he had been acting so well. His facial expression and his way of carrying his character. As in my prediction, he get it and I am happy to lost to somebody which is better than me. Congrats to him. So end of the day, we had been announce to be the first group to get Merit Award and followed by the others 3 more groups. So total 4 Merit Awards had been given out. And for ur information, me, Celes, Andrew, Yen Wei and Jay were those who help out Mr.Adrian for the 6 awards. So I had hold all the awards and imagine I winning them...hehehehehe... included the best actress award. Wakakakakakakaakakaaka....

This our main actor, Andrew. I really happy of his performance. Because before this, his acting was so lousy. And some more he the main actor, so I put a lot of effort to improve him and I can see that he was trying his best to improve. Through out the process, many things had happened and maybe that wat made us feel so worth it when we got the Merit Award. I shouted at him during one of the practice and he cried, so do I. If u are my friends from Trg, u noe wat I means when I said I shouted. My voice will gone high and thats will be very much different from the way I talk. Anyways, wat I can said is, that is the process. Well Done, Andrew. Well done!

Andrew and Jay. Jay act two character in the play. One as Andrew friend and one as my late father where his spirit talks to me.

Me with the Merit Award. I really hope I am the one who hold the Best Actor Award. Not to said Muka Tebal, I am hoping for the best actor award. Anyways, the guy still deserved that award. I acted as Andrew's Father.
