Greetings fellow occupants of the universe,
embarking on this project directed me to a light of hope. It was a project of ambition and we chose to take that challenge but is it taking a toll on us now?
I chose the story to be inspired by Love Exists. Most of us do not really know what it actually does. It is just a reminder. For me, you and everyone else. No matter what ever shit happens and gets shoved into our faces, we know it will be worth it in the end. It kinda hit hard on me when Zee and I had communication breakdown about shooting a certain scene. I do not know why but the team has very poor communications but we just choose to ignore it.
Before the production phase started we discussed about meaning. But I feel all that meaning we've discussed about is gone. But I know it'll be back once we pull it through. We are really behind time. Who do we blame? The Producer. I am suppose to keep everything on schedule but I was too weak to draw the line between being a friend and being a team member.
I believe there are conflicts that happen we just choose to ignore, hoping things to get better naturally but this set back is too much. We have to finish post production by 8 Nov. We just have to make use what we have and change the story slightly. I am sorry Zat that your script could not be fully realized unless someone gives me a full proof production plan.
Forgive me my team mates if I am not communicating properly before. If you have any problems with the way I work, I will not mind to change so as long work gets done in time and to fit how you work and your efficiency rate is top-notch. I do not want to be a spoil-sport for all of you but at the same time I need assurance that work can be finished in time.
I've indulged myself in the journey of self until I have forgotten.
That I am not alone.
Love exists not by fate by through our own efforts.

3rd October Meeting with Lam fung again
Members Present:
Jaya
Zat
Location:
School Library/Cafe Galilee
Duration:
Approx. 30min
Ghaz and Zaman fell sick unfortunately. There seemed to be a miscommunication with Adib. Anyways only Zat and Jaya were able to meetup with Lam Fung. He seemed pissed that we made him wait as we had to loan out filming equipments first, be patient dude.
Lam Fung seemed worried on the form of our project. And does not fully understand the whole thing. But it was good that he brought it up because it kinda slipped our minds trying to rush and finish shooting. So fung thanks for refreshing our minds and hopefully prepare ourselves for mid-point presentation!
The main thing was how to make the film the focal point, the new media element and packaging of our final product.
