YE SAYA RAJIN =)

Hi, td(sabtu 21.02.09) bgn tido lewat sbb smlm tido kat kol 5pagi ...bangun2 je nota2 semua ade kat sebelah, cantik je Xterusik. (ni kes tertido masa membaca la nie...ekekkekee) sampai kelas 9.15 am sikit lewat (15mins) byk gak sbnrnyer, sbb masa utk menjawab hilang banyak dahh... mesti Dr.Salleh marahh nie ....adoii, soalan ade 3, answer all plak tu. Xde pilihan jawab je lah dengan kudrat yg ade... actually test td open book test. so boleh laaa bukak mana2 book, or notes yg kita ade. tp u all tau laaa i rather sit closed book test instead of open. Selak punye selak, Xjumpe2 pon, (padan muke Xbaca) ...adohhh panik masa tu. tgk2 jam dah 9.40am, kertas kosong lagi ....parahh nie ... then akhirnya jumpe jawapan (tau laa btoi ke tidak) kuatkan semangat, tulis je laaaaaaa =) lepas penat/ lenguh menulis alhamdulillah siap 3soalan tu dijawab dengan jayanya ...

"Sebenarnya, dlm menentukan cerdik atau tidak seseorang itu ...ianya agak sukar. Bayangkan, tidak kira sepandai mana pun seseorang itu, penilaian hanyalah dikira atas ape yang dapat anda tulis di atas sehelai kertas semasa peperiksaan. Tidak kira ape juga masalah, atau rintangan, anda mesti menulis jawapan di atas kertas itu, dengan fakta, dan penerangan di dalam masa yang ditetapkan. Jika tidak, anda seorang yang gagal."

pukul 1 ptg plak, ade kelas tourism planning, lunch td makan byk plak. then masa kelas tersengguk-sengguk tahan ngantuk. Dr.Khairil perasan "u getting sleepy... whyy???" hehehe akmal (agaknye sume kot) senyum je... fuh, having kelas dlm aircond kat dewan dengan keadaan yang kenyang adalah satu mental and physical tourture yg sangat teruk .... =(

Skrg nie dah dekat 4.10am, tgh struggle utk kelas finance on Sunday ....susahnye subject nie. lemah-selemahnye. kelas on Sunday mmg memeritkan. di kala rakan2 sebaya enjoy at shopping complexes, cinemas, dating, shopping etc, kami berada di kelas.... menuntut ilmu dengan sepenuh jiwa dan raga. Yaaa, kami adalah pelapis negara ...so this is the time we have to sacrifice ..hahaha =D

tido dulu ehhh, nk rest laaaa ...penat sangat nie ... daaaa

"MIMPI"

EVENT: SHOWCASE MIMPI THEATER
DATE: February 19th, 2009
VENUE: UiTM PUNCAK PERDANA, SELANGOR
TAGS: Second Photographer for Chronicles Memory

Job kali nie lain sedikit daripada yg sebelum2 nya ....kali nie agak commercial sikit, akmal bekerja untuk Fadh owner of chronicleofmemories utk sesi photoshoot pelajar-pelajar Art Management (kalau silap tolong betulkan yaa) utk sebelum theater mereka dipentaskan bulan April dan the Video Conference VC on March nanti. Ok, mmg tugas kali nie agak mencabar, how to manage big crowds in a small classroom is highly challenging. Thats y we came with a quit number of people to assist the photo shoot. Mereka yg turut bersama sesi nie:-

Photographers
(1) Fadh
(2) Akmal
(3) Qayyum
(4) Mior*
(5) Ajib*

p/s:Individu yg bertanda (*) adalah orang2 yang dicari oleh boss mereka pada hari itu. =D kerana menghilangkan diri tanpa usul periksa.

Before the photoshoot begin...
hehhe, akmal sbnrnya bertugas kat dalam another room, saje keluar amek angin, panas sehh kat dlm tue ...eekekkee, kat luar nie tempat photoshoot utk group photo ...ohh lupe nk gtau, theme mereka is cool & elegant. last minit idea, akmal Xmau color orange tu too obvious, so i use the top of the backdrop only... well it works ok for me =)

This is actually one of the Doctorate from oversea (I dont know where he is coming from), one of the lecturer in that faculty. A very nice person, very sporting and humble. Ohh, ok this photoshoot is actually as a preparation for them to came out with a book ...i dun know what is the specific name ...but its like the official potfolio of their theater... sorry if im mistaken yaa

Kami bertolak dari shah alam pukul 9pagi, dengan supercharge toro yg super laju ----> dlm mase 5min(dr kiraan handphone fadh) smpai di UiTM Puncak Perdana. Laju bukan? whoahahhaaa, sampai je terus set up flash dan shoot non stop.

Untuk sesi nie, kami bekerjasama dengan Shaza + and Ryan. Mereke berdua, mewakili their batch (final semester) utk This BIG project. Thanks a lot to both of you as well as all the students to give full support to make the shooting session more interesting. Mengikut perkiraan, seramai 70++ students dan 12orang Lecturers took part in this session. Fadh,Qayyum, and Mior handling group photos, meanwhile me in charge for personal photoshoot (70++ students) in the other room. Agak seronok menekan shutter, shoot yg bermula 9.30am finish at 3pm. Ehh, time running very fast, thats y i felt quit exhausted, mcm amek wedding rasenye plak penat die ...whoaa =O

BEHIND THE SCENE
*thanks mior + ajib amek gambo aku.

*seriously, I am quite exhausted ..I shot approx. 15-20 shots per students... comprising formal and so called 'daring pose' hehehhe .... setaip org akan menggayakan style mereka. each of them akan bergaya atas, bawah, ke tengah, tepi pusing belakang melompat (I pon melompat [tipu] ) and many many many more ...and my camera have to follow all the pose they made .... hehheheee my leg nw is painful (sikit je sebenarnye) macam panjat bukit (seriously) ...whhoahahhahaaa.... but nevermind Im happy to do it... =D

all photos are randomly chosen, the rest is well kept in the hard disk
hopefully u happy working with us ....thanks again ... see u again!! =D

EVENT: RECEPTION - ELLY & NADIA @ WISMA SEJARAH

OUTDOOR - TAMAN TASIK PERDANA
DATE: January 26th, 2009
VENUE: KUALA LUMPUR
TAGS: with yus, mattranggie

Hi, just after 2 days gap, akmal sekali lagi dijemput oleh yus utk membantu beliau dlm next assignment (alhamdulillah eyy yus, aku tumpang gembira) ...oh kali nie 4org dtg bersama shoot at Dewan Wisma Sejarah, Kuala Lumpur - yus, akmal, nain, ajib and azizi. alhamdulillah sumenye berjalan lancar. Akmal bertolak dr shah alam 8.00am, utk cover nadia's make up session, but then i am appointed to cover at the hall and ajib took over my position... ape yg special? dewan wisma sejarah nie mempunyai sistem lampu yg terang, so mudah utk kita dptkan gambar yg clean + clear. and, sgt special, akmal lagi sekali dpt pinjam 5d MII en. nain. actually mmg dpt pakai masa outdoor last day. Sumpah dah Xnak jumpe nain nie lagi, sbb racun parakuat die sungguh mujarab!! ahahahaaa alih2 ade pulak muncul kat dewan hari nie .. adoi, pening Xpenng mmg kene layannn jugak 5d MII nie ... syiok je member nie shoot at 6400 iso's ...adeiiii majlis elly and nadia berjalan lancar, everyone is happy ...

Akmal Xbyk shoot di dalam dewan, i byk bertugas in PR, helping the OP- official photographer to arrange group photos, and some couple of pose etc's... yet very exciting job, since I only facing little pressures not as an OP does. You know what, it is a very big pressure for an OP to work in such environment, 1. Limited Time to produce best pictures, 2. Environment in which Mood and Location is always changing, 3.Tricky Light/ metering, 4.Managing a big crowd of people, with different kind perspective and belief, and Controlling the sophicicated photography system .... It is not an easy responsible to be an OP ....a lot of things to put into consideration ..... =D

Ohhhh, sorry2 ...mesti byk yg merungut nie, byk pulak membebel kali nie.... ok ok smbg citer, after shoot kat dewan wisma sejarah, kami terus ke Taman Tasik Titiwangsa, ramai btol manusia, tp mmg best, kami dpt mencari all the best shots ...abis jalan satu taman yg besar tu, tiba2 rase kaki dah sakit, sebab sgt penat wakakakkaaa ..... enjoy the pictures okaayyyyyy !!!!!
