A month back, went for an audition for some Malay telemovie. They didn't call up so I figured I didn't make it through but eventually they did call up to ask me to help out in a scene as an extra. I thought to myself what the heck, lets just do it. After all, its the first step before making it big. If there's such a thing as making it big here. So here's what happened.. and after every line, we shall end it off with my favorite line, "what the fuck"
1. They told me to come at 7 pm and the girl messaged me at 6.50 pm saying "if you're on the way please come by at 8 pm". I was like "what the fuck"
2. It was already 8 pm and when I called them and they said that they were on the way. Again I was like "what the fuck"
3. Eventually they did come but they reached at 9 pm. I was like "what the fuck"
4. They starting setting up briefed the talents and did whatever they needed to do and only started filming about 10 plus. Now we all go "what the fuck"
5. Best thing is, I only came onto screen at about after 12 midnight. Shouldn't we go "what the fuck"
6. Packed up said our goodbyes and reached home about 2 am in the freaking cold. "What the Fuck!"
I always thought that 'professionals' did their work very 'smooth'. Like they follow schedule, followed lines and stuff like that but they were like doing the same things we did when we were having our FYP production. Maybe slightly better but there were common things between us and them. Only thing we lacked was probably the good equipments and some crazy fat ass light but the overall feel was the same. I felt like I was doing FYP all over again. Damn them. Lucky for me I had a friend there so it wasn't so bad after all. Shit, now I've got to see my face on screen.
Thanks to the girlfriend for being there to wait for me. She's the best.
