"hey did you get test mail 1?!??!?" "no!??!?!" "$@%#^^$%^#%$^$%!!!" they gave up too... chian concluded some guy in the building was d/l-ing porn videos... thus the horrible connection... was utterly horrible for the co. though... felt very unprofessional when i had to call my client and tell her i'm having prbs with my mail... sending them mails with my personal email... trespassing into other co.'s FTP to upload stuff... oh well... two shoots today... one for jeweller... and another for a angmoh boss and his wines... was running ard the office like siao... phones ringing... now i dont really give a damn when i have to scream for olivier across the whole office... no more... walk over to the main hall... and "olivier, i need you to check this for me/blah blah called/should we call Blah blah?..." ate in... vince went out to buy... ive got fried rice today.. it was yummy... the really dry type that i really like... so in case i forget... i owe chian - 70 c for kopi... olivier - 4.30 for chicky whopper jr... vince - 3 bucks for fried rice... lets pretend i dunnoe... casted one pan-asian guy today... came ard 6... had to stay in for him... olivier was out shopping for props... vince and chian at rooftop shooting... took some pix... chian came back... kinda warned the guy being casted that i got reputation for taking horrible pictures... and making good looking pple look horrible... guy was nice enough to come to my defence... saying tat all i had to do was press the shutter... it's the models responsibility to look good... hah... coz chian was complaining i made him look terrible in the photos yesterdae... oh well... there's a reason why i'm not the photographer... i do think he looks really good leh... esp in his starhub ad... been speaking to a lot of really nice pple of late... like i was complaining to one agent that i was being driven nuts... and she told me abt another horrible client... well... people who would go out of their way to help you... and sound really happy when you talk to them... for that i'm glad... i'm learning loads abt the industry... gaining good exposure and experience... it's not THAT bad afterall... ----Stef stopped rambling at 21:32 --Link to Post |
