\"State<\/a><\/p>\n

Tune into State of Sarah<\/em>, every Thursdays only on Seriously Sarah<\/em>. That’s what it would sound like if this was on a TV channel.<\/p>\n

But it’s not.<\/p>\n

So there. You have to use your imagination for the voice over.<\/p>\n

Unlike my Monday posts on adventures around Singapore or Extended Edition<\/a> which is like an extra supplement to the Monday posts or general extra things, State of Sarah is going to be about me (GASSSSSP!).<\/p>\n

This is<\/em> a blog after all. So if you’re missing reading blogs that aren’t advertorials or lists, this is it for Thursdays, Singapore time.<\/p>\n

State of Sarah because SoS so ahhhhhhhh help me or something.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, what have I been doing? Quite a bit of video production managing really.<\/p>\n

The short version: I quit my job in 2012 to work on my books and in the meantime I am working temporarily at a friend’s company for a bit of money or other places now and then. Some weeks ago, I had to draw a storyboard for a TVC (that’s television commercial).<\/p>\n

\"What<\/a><\/p>\n

Yeah. I’m not a storyboardist but apparently this actually helped visualise? So you know, even the most basic of drawings really help in planning how it will look like.<\/p>\n

\"My<\/a><\/p>\n

So ok, wow. You know when in (film\/design) school they say it’s ok if it’s a stick figure or whatever as long as you can KNOW the shots? Well, hey if it this kind of storyboard art is ok for just reference, then yay.<\/p>\n

\"It's<\/a><\/p>\n

Mind you, this kind of storyboard art isn’t<\/em> used for animation or for animation students because they should be able to draw the characters fully including the background.<\/p>\n

And oh, this is how the actual thing looks like!<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you watch local TV, it’s on Vasantham and I think, in some weeks or months it should be also screened in Malaysia too?<\/p>\n
