And it's a wrap!

Had to go for the final day of shooting for Jalan Lama before it wrapped.

Kalao sebelum ni kat Belum, and also FRIM kat Kepong, tonight (yesterday night, early this morning) it was the jungle deep into Gombak on the way to Bentong melalui erm.. jalan lama.

CREEPY!!!!

By the way, sapa ingat keja pelakon tu glamorous, you've got to be joking. It's hours of waiting, just to shoot minutes if not mere seconds before the camera. Dua kali pengalaman aku da cukup nak muntah darah, and never want to do anymore acting da.

Afdlin's little princesses wait patiently..


Waiting however can drive you nuts


And things can get ugly...


REAL ugly!


Ah... here we go


And there's always help to make things get dirty!


Or maybe you can just finish memorising your lines


Aku drop by location about midnight... and stayed until 9.30am! Merasalah! Ni da siang sambung shoot. Masa aku ciao pon, meka lum wrap masih finishing the last scene.

Oh what a beautiful morning!


Er...


Maybe it's just the loss of blood...


That leaves you feeling spaced out


So... let's cam whore! Heh!


Gross!


Among the last scenes


I left with more knowledge of the workings behind the camera. Again, have to thank Gaya and the Tayangan Unggul family for their hospitality mengalu-alukan kehadiran aku menyemak lepa skali. Heh!

Thanks to Flin and the rest of the Jalan Lama crew. Make it big, guys!


PS - Later posting entry baru. I decided to just go for the launch of Tahajjud Cinta. Banyak sangat event ari ni, but settled on one. Tunggu pics...

Aksi berahi!

Beriya je kan title entry ni. Read on to see apa kena mengena headline sensasi nan hado nih.

Wow! I'm suprised!

Hari ni 09/09/09 and setakat ni takde berita membanjiri on the special occasion. Too much happening in the country for people to bother about more trivial, lighthearted stuff kot. Kan elok kalao leh jadi shallow and ignorant like some... that way mentaliti ada aku kisah can just take over.

Anyway, a quick note. The cow-prits were charged today. FINALLY!

Will the law find them guilty? Entah... will it have an impact on the upcoming by-election. Most probably.

Sedih kan. Bukan je negara lain nak hentam kita, orang kita - yes orang KITA -we are MALAYSIANS after all, nak spend more time bickering with each other gak. Gila kan?

Anyway, semalam got quite a bit of work done, pastu rush ke Istana Budaya tuk launching Cuci The Musical. Sounds fun, though honestly don't have a clue how it's going to be presented, but should be interesting.

Ni some pics of the cast involved.







Apart from the main cast in Afdlin, Hans, Awie and sapa nama sorang agik tuh... owh yeah AC, ada gak my faves in Adibah Noor, Vanidah Imran. Ada gak Harith Iskandar. It sounds like fun, so we'll see how that pans out.

Nak more info tu book tickets ke apa, tuh dia info kat bawah!




After I was done with that lepak with kak Vee (not Vanidah, the other Vee in Nur Aliah Lee) kat Pelita. Dinner post berbuka katanya. Banyak gak borak.

Abih je, jumpa the other Vee (Vanidah this time) and gi ke FRIM di Kepong tuk sambungan shooting dalam hutan tuk cita Jalan Lama. Banyak ok dalam hutan. Kecuali hutan ni tak ada... erm... 'penonton' macam masa kat Belum (and apparently kat Hulu Langat, the other location)

Cantik sangat set kat sana. Me likey! Amik ko scene nih.. ada katil tengah hutan belantara!




Tujuannya? Layan pic Vee dan Flin posing sat.



Motifnya tuk hot, love scene (propah kuat ke betul ni) between Que dan Marion Caunter. Erm.. tanak komen lebih. Tunggu cita ni kuar. Meanwhile, this is part of it kat director nya viewing area.

Lepak set dari tengah malam, sampai 7.30 pagik tadik! Aiyo! Malam ni meka last day of shooting before wrap. Vee racun turun padang tengok... sebab dia ada scene. Tengok kalao larat. Esok pon ada banyak event buka puasa.

In order of importance to me, ada preview of Papadom, then ada launching album Tahajjud Cinta by Datuk Siti Nurhaliza, buka puasa MIG dan PC Awan Dania 2.

Kalao ikutkan aku, aku nak gi dua, Papadom dan Tahajjud Cinta.. but see how. Ok nak abihkan keja sikit lagik so esok clear. And hopefully malam ni dapat lepak set Jalan Lama agik.


PS - Just a reminder guys. Kalao korang nak more up to date status aku add me on Twitter at http://twitter.com/klubbkiddkl - and also jangan lupa follow my blog (join up bawah chat tuh)

Sudah

Ni baru bangun nak sahur pas dua hari tak posa. Which brings the grand total to lima hari aku tak 'sempat' posa. Respek my Muslim friends who stick to theirs. Bukan senang ok nak posa pastuh nak function as usual in the day. I know for me, tak merokok tuh yang paling teruk... time keja stress, automatic je capai rokok.

Anyway, ni some pics I uploaded of the shooting kat Belum on Saturday.



The picture above is part of a village created.

Story Jalan Lama ni is quite interesting. Very fantasy! I like!

Basically it's about two brothers on a roadtrip. Both Que Haidar dan Hans Isaac play the brothers, who pas their father passes away, si Hans nya watak ni kena bawak balik watak Que untuk di 'kembalikan' to asal usul dia on his 25th birthday (something his dad would have been supposed to do tapi sebab da kiok takleh) - to a perkampungan belonging to a tribe deep in the forests.

A lot of strange, spooky stuff happens before and during the roadtrip and Que's character realises who he really is.

Best jalan cita dia.

And a lot of other names involved too. Afdlin and Christina, his wife was responsible for the script if I'm not mistaken. Afdlin directs too and holds a small part in the movie.

Starring is Que, Hans, Vanidah Imran... and ramai involved termasuk Namron, Ahmad Tarmimi Siregar, Liyana Jasmay, Corrie... ni some pics of the scenes masa shooting at Belum.

Que arrived about 6pm. Ni the start of the day about 6pm


Gaya, Afdlin... why is there an abandoned Giant shopping trolley in the middle of Belum? *larikkk*


11pm - Gaya pops out the M&Ms. Seb baik beg dia very the kuasa Doraemon. Ada je makanan.


10pm on. Que moving into second ke third scene.


11.30pm or so... Afdlin perah otak jap. Getting his creative mojo


Helmi - a killer director of photography


Some of the extras in one of the village scenes


Setting up for Hans and Que nya scene with the mysterious tribe


1am - just before the wrap of the scene to move into the fight scene


A very preggers Linda. Maintain cantik walaopon tengah ngandung (and she spent the whole time on set... loving sangat)


Extras sempat cam whore sat sementara menunggu set up


Helmi sempat tea break...


Sebelom lari balik ke station dia


Vanidah... fresh walaopon da masuk 2 pagi!


Que pondering his scene, Linda borak ngan Juan and Hans gets a back rub from the crew


Gaya - still cheery!


What a job! Dress up scary, in the middle of the jungle - in the middle of the night... rehearsing lines


Being fitted for her look




Rocking the horror freak look


It was fun walaopon tiring.

First of all, one thing I have to say. Nak shooting dalam hutan tengah malam is HORRIFIC! Memang bukan aku je, tapi everyone I think, could pretty much sense we were being watched.

Tapi takde benda pelik berlaku, even though aku as usual 'nampak' lelebih.

Seronok nya pasal though, tak perasan pe pe sangat. The last set of pics tuh, Vee tengah siap make up prosthetics tuk watak dia. Nice!

Make up artist nya si Edd. Kebetulan, si Edd ni dak junior aku masa ACS Klang. And memang dulu rapat gila ngan dia. Dengar khabar dia da gi London ke haper dua tahun lebih belajar make up. Tup tup... after years tak jumpa, serempak once dia balik ni.

Memang dia effects work cantik. Takde main campak sos tomato je ok. Sebab aku into effects make up, especially more to horror and gore (tengok je my Halloween pics last year yang wat sendiri), banyak la curi tips dari dia.

I think the end result is going to be quite grand.

Tanak give anything away for the moment. The movie is expected to be out only in 2011 tahun depan.

Aku lepak on location for the shoot (yang delay because hujan ketika berbuka - sempat rush balik resort) sampai takleh tahan.. ngantuk sangat.

Tapi the 50 something strong crew, and the artistes, serta over 80 extras bertahan. Salute!

Pagi smalam masa aku nak gerak da, heard bebudak semua balik pas wrap scenes kat Belum about 9am or so. Aiyo! Koma la sekor sekor nih. Plus, Monday dengar meka da sambung shoot balik kat KL. Dengar ada lagik shots kat hutan kat Gombak dan Hulu Langat lagi nak settlekan.

Wrap shoot by 8hb. Hans ajak tuk PC Cuci The Musical di, while Afdlin reminded of the preview screening of Papadom on 10th.

Takde masa lor nak cuti sebelom Raya nih. Pe pon, story banyak nak abih. Esok.. make it later today, banyak nak abihkan. Nanti je update lagik.

Masuk utan ni stressful lak. Heh... tapi nak sangat balik cuti kat Belum. Cantik abih! Everything was so... green!

Ok la.. nak sahur jap pastuh nak tido. Ta all.

PS - Tengah layan single baru Samsons - Tak Ada Tempat Seperti Surga. It's been on permanent repeat for the past few days dah sejak Irfan bagitau. Heh... Bams messaged too. Samsons the best! Siap hapal da nyanyi skali. Heh! Memang their songs semua simple, but poetic dan mendalam.

Samsons – Tak Ada Tempat Seperti Surga
Tak ada tempat seperti Surga
Untuk kuhabiskan hidupku denganmu
Senandung alunan terindah
Akan kulakukan teruntuk dirimu cinta
Separuh darah hidupku

Tak ada tempat seperti Surga
Untuk kuabadikan hidupku denganmu
Barisan syair yang terindah
Akan kulakukan untuk dirimu cinta
Separuh sukma jiwaku

Ku persembahkan hidupku
Tuk selamanya padamu
Kan kuserahkan cintaku hanya untukmu
Selamanya

Ku abadikan hatiku
Tuk selamanya padamu
Kan kuserahkan ragaku hanya untukmu
Selamanya
