Well, this is seriously Sarah and that's all you need to know for now.

Another Time…

Remember 48 Hour Film Project? Tiramisue has finally uploaded the director’s cut on youtube! You can watch our film here.

Fun fact! It was a collaboration between Singapore and our other team in Vancouver!

The requirements for 2011’s Singapore 48 film project was:

Character: Jason / Jamie Chen
Prop: Apple
Line of Dialogue: “Time will tell.”

The genre that our team got was “Time Travel” which was a wild card and we won for Best Use of Character! That and a set of Crocs shoes for each of the crew cause they were one of the sponsors for this year! In fact, if you got to see all the films this year, a lot of them were very good and some were even done by people from productions companies?!.

Not sure how 2012 will be like but at this rate, the films are turning out more like a typical film fest but done in a less amount of time and even with the requirements needed!

Oh with less angst of course. 48h has always had more comedic short films and it’s pretty fun.

SDS 3.8 – I Believe I Can Fly

In this episode, the crew and I went to Sentosa! Wooooh! Sarah Does… Sentosa? Well, it’s still Singapore. This time I wanted to try out the new iFly Singapore. It is the first building or the most obvious building you’ll see if you took the Sentosa tram and stopped at the Beach Station.

In a design sense, the website is pretty rubbish cause it’s made of FLASH! That means you can’t check the website out on your iphones/ipads or if you have a slow connection. I hope they will eventually redesign it because it IS a hassle to get information to book a slot from there.

Heading to the Room of Requirement

Those gearing up for the Harry Potter Party at the multipurpose room of the National Library on 9 July, 6.30pm can check out Popcorn for movie memorabilia and props! You’ll get a 20% discount from 1 July – 26 July for Harry Potter items there. Hurray for them giving us a discount for the upcoming movie!

Just flash the coupon above on your mobile devices or a printed slip to them when buying your Harry Potter merchandise there.

In related news, no discounts for Caesar’s but they’re selling lighted wands there. Apparently they typoed Voldemort to Valdermort in their flyer… BUT ANYWHO, yeah if you want to LUMOS, the wands are pretty good since I tried them out when their stall was at Cosfest.

NOW! More details of the HP Party.

  • We’re expecting a LOT of people since response is like WOAH. So to be sure, remember this is a LIBRARY and we need to keep the noise down so be “quiet” like you’re sneaking to the room of requirement when you’re just entering the place.
  • Also due to the woaah response, if the librarian says no more people allowed in, then no more people allowed in. However, let’s try to all get seated inside eh?
  • It’s a fan event by fans! To make it enjoyable, hope you guys will participate or it will be sad.

Yeah, that’s it! Just remember NLB let us have the place so we’ll have to go according to their rules ok?

So here it is.

Let’s start with the wand first since it’s easiest and the robe tutorial will be below it.
