I managed to get some time to drop by the ADM Industry Screening earlier this month together with some of my batch mates. It's already been a year since my batch graduated and here we've come full circle witnessing the graduation works of the next group of filmmakers. Definitely brought about lots of nostalgia for me, remembering the whole lead up to when my batch had to prepare for our screening. All the excitement and anxiety! Good days.
Email invite for the screening!
This time around, instead of being held in school, the screening was held at the Genexis Theatre at Fusionopolis. I had never been to that place before so this was a pretty good opportunity to record some videos! Also, one of my batchmates was actually working in that same building! Uber convenient! I, on the other hand, had to get through the 6pm crowd on the train in order to get there on time.

It was really great to see this batch trying out new things in their works and taking risks. Hope they continue to make and innnovate well into the future!
After the screening was over, one of my batchmate who worked in that building offered to give a little tour of his workplace and office upstairs so that was a little extra treat at the end. My camera recording above doesn't do justice, but the view from the open roof on Fusionopolis was pretty awesome!

Also, nothing says "Office Tour" unless you have a Visitor Pass of some sort, so there you go!
Well, it's been a while! (and it's already 2015, wow)
Things have been going along swimmingly. I've been pretty much occupied with work and personal projects since graduation, and that's been a good thing. The last thing I need is to end up being stagnant without having anything to do. While I'm busy with work during the weekdays, I've been equally busy during the weekends with indulging myself in small little experiments.

I've since started archiving my little experiments on a small corner on the Internet, which you can find here on my Tumblr. I never really had the time to explore newer things during my days in university, let alone during whatever vacation breaks I got during my time then. Right now, it's the best time to get myself to basically do stuff and keep doing stuff. I think it's becoming more of a habit now. Not too sure just where else my mucking about with glitch aesthetics will take me to, but I'm just going to enjoy the ride for now.
