Still Waters

Documentary is a pain in the arse work. Its totally a different medium than short film or ads. We need to figure out an angle, structure a narrative out from primary sources. This process can take up months, years. This is one of my old doumentary i collaborated with MGTF primarily with Hasnul called Still Waters.

My pal Hasnul round up a whole goons to document the lives of people who lives in SG Pinang, mind you i was aghast to see it was so dirty when they previewed me the visuals, so i sat down with Sham and basically spend hours and hours analyzing and conjuring an angle to the materials. The visuals were poor and unstructured. Cant blame them, it was taken by students without any briefings.

Anyway it took me 3 days to make it to an acceptable narrative, its not one my best but i need to highlight it as it was displayed well.
