Lost Night (Official Video)



Debut music video, with music and lyrics written by Victor Chua, in between mugging for his university exams in Europe. Great escapism stuff, singing in the woods in the dark of the night. #victorchua #indie #indiemusic

Lyrics:

I lost my night through strange events Looking for sleep in the dark Have you found my inner peace Cos I'm still looking for that spark And I'm tired of trying to be neat So tonight would you have that dance With me

So tonight would you have a dance with me
Let's break the walls that they built Let's build back some of what they've broke Running away Running away From all that secrets that we keep That left us empty, unachieved It feels so good To be free
It feels so good When we just let ourselves be And we'll make it Yes we'll make it For you For me So tonight would you have a dance With me

Closure


This is a Ngee Ann Poly student film "Closure", adapted from the book "Men from the Boys" by Tony Parsons. It was again a late night shoot, given that the whole story happens in the evening.

The story is about a teenage boy struggling with his biological mother's attempt to come back to his life.

The working title of this short film was "Mothers", but it was changed to "Closure", as the former comes to close Darren Arronofsky's "Mother" currently screening in the cinemas.

This is my first time working with James. My second time working with Ling and Carin. You may remember seeing Carin playing the role of my daughter in "Father's Devotion" :). See here.

Now, the film itself...



It was quite a struggle remember long convoluted lines after midnight. That is why late night shoots are to be avoided where possible.

Fatima














"Fatima" is a story about an older Malay resident who meets a middle-aged Chinese man during her final days of her life in a nursing home.

I love acting in Malay films. It brings back memories of old Singapore when the language was more commonly spoken. However, as this story is contemporary, more English is used in my dialogue.

See the video:


 It was a hot day and the location was very noisy. So the perspiration on our faces were blotted/powdered away and the sound laboriously cleaned up and designed. Thanks to the industrious crew.
