PRODUCTION TEAM
I am sure all members know about the script market that took place a month back (we posted an article in this very newsletter). Over the May to July holidays, a few selected scripts will undergo refining and filming will start shortly afterward.
Are you interested in taking part in filming over the break? nuSTUDIOS is currently looking for dedicated production members to take part in filming, and as long as you have a passion for film production we want YOU to join us.
To join you could:
(a) send us an email indicating your interest to: enquiries@nustudios.org

On a side note we still welcome scripts! People who are interested in submitting your script can send it to Ian. our scriptwriting head @ ian@nustudios.org

PAST EVENTS
Previously…
Road Trip, A Satire of Life (A screening of 3 films)
A screening entitled Road Trip, A Satire of LIfe, was held on 20 March 2009. Three short films made by our very own nuSTUDIOS members was screened at the event . Positive responses were received from the audiences and we would like to take this chance to thank all that had made this an successful event.
Script Market
Script Market was held on 27th March 2009. We had over ten members pitching their potential script ideas to those present at the event. It was a fulfilling session as everyone had a great time listening to all the insightful and provocative script ideas that were being pitched, while the scriptwriters made use of the chance to garner support and meet potential production members.
Song of Kent Ridge
nuSTUDIOS participated in a collaboration project with NUS Chinese Orchestra to produce a video backdrop for their piece “Song Of Kent Ridge”. The video accompaniment to the piece is a story of how NUS has made Kent Ridge her home, and it showcases the vibrant campus life amongst the greenery. During the concert on 7 March 2009, the video was screened successfully to a 400-strong audience at the UCC.
Collaboration with Lee Chee Tian
Recently, several nuSTUDIOS members helped out with Lee Chee Tian, an independent filmmaker, in his documentary production in NUS School of Computing. The documentary explores the life of an ex-student in NUS, Peter Loh, who is less-abled but was still able to obtain a First-class honours degree.
nuSTUDIOS wishes all members a happy and fulfilling holiday! |
