Radio Script Recording @t Astro

On 27th June (Friday), I went for a radio script recording (three languages) together with my mentor and three language copywriters....I felt excited because this is the first time I step into Astro as well as go for radio script recording ^^

We went there at around 10am++. After registered ourselves at guardhouse and met with client, we are brought to the recording room by Sukhbir (AMP Account Executive). He is a humour guy,hehe..When stepped into the "Fridge"(so~~coooold~~ ><) recording roOm, the talents already there and prepared themselves to record the radio advertisement. Firstly,they record English version, Chinese version and last but not least, the Malay version. During the recording, the copywriter will let the talent know when their voice need to be louder, which sentence need to speak with excitement voice, the feeling and so on.."NG" quite many times, it is because they want the best outcome..after recorded the voice over and announcer voice,my mentor,the copywriter and client decided which pre-record special effect is best to be used in the radio ad..then,the sound engineer cut and modify on it and mix together with the sound effect..the whole recording and sound mixing took around 1 and half hour~

The client suggested to have lunch together at Astro cafeteria. The dishes were looked tasty and I finally ordered mix rice~not bad^^,it is far more different from normal cafeteria. During we having our lunch, Sukhbir shared something regarding to Astro with us, namely the staffs, how the AMP operates, the food in cafeteria and so on..He also kept joke with us, saying that our company Bali feel let him felt that he went into a kopitiam( the pantry there~~haha) so relax and nice, but when looked at our office(workstation)..wow,that is 2 different worlds in the company,kekeke~

AMP(consists of era fm.my fm, hitz fm, mix fm,
lite fm,sinar fm, X fresh fm and Thr fm)

Overall, I treasure the chance to go for radio script recording..I was told by my mentor which most probably she can bring me to the coming TVC shooting..i am looking forward for it..

The Beauty of Coloured Glaze - 琉璃

琉璃....

~* 可以吸纳华彩又晶莹透明，可以美艳惊世却又 霎间毁灭，可以化身万象却又亘古安静 *~

此艺术品是一种中国古法材料，它的原料叫人造水晶玻璃，是一种化学物质.主要成份是二氧化硅、氧化铝和矽加助化溶剂氧铅..它极具穿透性，表现力极强，空灵高贵、细腻含蓄、静谥从容且极其脆弱~

我因新加坡<<红星大奖>>而知道琉璃这艺术品,而琉璃工房/Liuli Gong Fang发起人杨惠珊特为他们设计琉璃奖座(见下图),且每一年都不同颜色(还记得第一次是青中带点蓝与黄),整体设计简洁却高雅,为此我被它深深吸引了~也是我见过各类奖座中最美,最为印象深刻的..

之后,就开始留意琉璃的一切~对我而言,它的美不是三言两语可以诠释.如今,琉璃工房已经来到了马来西亚Pavilion,让琉璃收藏家与对琉璃艺术与对琉璃艺术有兴趣的人们光临:-

How Is Your Internship?

On the 2nd June morning.....

there were 3 interns from UTAR & one from UITM ready for their 3 and a half months training @t BatesAsia. Due to that was the first time, they arrived Menara IGB earlier and welcome by the Bali feel environment.

....They are waiting for the management personal assistant-Ms Viviene to assign them to their respective department and bring them to get into the office environment.

There is an intern named Triple L has been assigned to Client Handling Department.Her mentors(2 in a group) handling the 100 PLUS,Levis Jeans & Dockers, and Starhill accounts. Because of this department need to deal with clients' deadline and integrate with Creative department, the atmosphere is serious + stress during the necessary period.

Without a long time, 4 of them have been given their own extension phone number and personal email address. Between, like other staffs,each of them need to create a personal folder inside the company public folder so that it is convenient for them to share,put whatever necessary file or document on it.

~ * ~

The 1st thing that Triple L learnt about the Client Handling is the Job Requisition, Her 2nd mentor explained to her the function and the procedure, then she has to go and get the approval from Traffic Manager then photocopy to the related staffs~through this process, she get to know & recognize the staff's name and position.

1st day,nothing much to do, this Triple L online read newspaper(lolz),searching for some informative things, and have a look for the previous artworks,presentation slides, and docs in the staffs folders.In the evening, she was brought by her second mentor to Damansara Height to hand in the Levis Press Kit to a PR company. She treasure a lot as her mentor told her those useful information about advertising field when on the way to and back to office.

Although the official "knock off" hour is 5.30pm. Of course, the staffs and the interns never left the office on time, perhaps that 5.30pm is just for receptionist and minor of staffs gua~('' ,)Thus these 3 UTARrians went bk at 7pm++ on 1st day.

Btwn, there's a medium size koala bear in the Creative Dpt which makes that Triple L want to bring it home~~ Ehem....don't dream anymore~let's go bk home..

............................................................................................................................................................................

2nd.3rd.4th n 5th day~

Nice to know the other interns(came in a month in advance)which are Pei Wah(from USM,same dpt v Triple L), Kumutha(USM as well) and Joey, a funny girl from Taylor's and had lunch with them. They are so funny and helpful to 4 new interns..

Basically, this Triple L already learnt to use the scanning machine(and how to retrieve via network),comb & binding machine as long as the fax machine(sorry for the 1st blank fax doc that UTAR received from 3 of them,kekeke).Did the research for band profile and ppt slides.

She read through the WPP Annual Report 07 & creative briefs from Bates Singapore branch. The company has their own template for that. It is damn long and very detail than what she has done for previous uni assignments.

"Don't ever go bk on time if you wish to earn extra new knowledge"(by Ms Penny)is so true. On the 3rd day, after finished her task at around 6.30pm++, her mentor specially printed out the Print Ads, TVC & Radio steps and procedure charts and explained step by step for her, including the jargons they used.

~ * ~

After familiar with the job req, her mentor started to let her writes the Job Req and modify the C&B(after client already approved the cost estimate).. Besides, through helping mentor to search the pictures, she gets to know more image bank which never use before.

Thus, she is looking forward for the coming orientation and assignment that will given by Adrian Ng(GM for Bates 141) and continue learning....
