Sooo... as i was being hurried out of the event hall by my friends, I happened to be walking aimlessly following whoever that was in front of me and also in a deep conversion with bread. And somehow we ended up on a roof top !! ^^
Yay!! Apparently, my friends hurried me out of hall because there were some other people waiting up at the roof for me... with a cake ^^ ( and i was taking taking my sweet time, walking out of the hall... along with a slight reluctance xp )
As usual, funny stuffs happened in my little life. My dear friends got the cake and candles but not the lighter >_< . SO we waited under the hot sun for someone to get the lighter from the supermarket, but ended up borrowing someone else's lighter ( who was sitting near us all the time) . And because its really windy up there, they tried desperately to light the candles. And when they finally did, the lighted candles were rather short lived.... they only lived for the photo shoots.Hahhaa...
I don't remember hearing any birthday song from them, mainly because the candles went out before we knew it and i just started slicing the cake forgetting about the song too ^^ ||
Besides the surprise cake, there's also a card signed by all of them.... along with a special signature and a greeting by toy designer mori chack, the one who designed the famous pink gloomy bear ^_^ ( they said that they queued for almost an hr for him to sign... so i will appreciate it from the bottom of my heart ... muahhaha )
And to the best part ... the chibi L toy !!! Which was another surprise for me ^^
I thought i won't be able to get my hands on the chibi L toy as they are always.... always... out of stock. Mainly because L was almost everyone favorite character in death note. And the shop owners told me that they are not going to restock them again from japan.
Now with L in my hands, i have competed my set of chibi death note characters .... muhahahah....Thank you yp and thank you yh!!! It's the perfect gift ^__^
The surprises from my friends made up for the the short n not-so-fruitful time at the toy fair. ^_^ Thanks to them, today, i wasn't just a person who got a another year older. But a happy girl who is happy to have grown another year older ^^
Singapore 1st ever toy and comic fair....
Sadly, i didn't manage to see much of the toys that interests me. : (
I guess mainly because it was the last day of the fair, most of the toys were sold out, many of the shelves that were believe to be onces filled up with toys were just.... empty.
and its just... crowded... crowded... and crowded... ^^||
And because of the crowds, most of my time spent in the fair were just waiting for the person in front of me to move ahead so that i could make my move too.. LOL
But because of the countless waiting... my eyes landed on him!!
Tim burton's edward scissorhand !!I dunno what you called those dolls actually, seen quite a number of girls carrying those kind of dolls around. And i thought they were kinda of scary. Imagine waking up in the night and have them staring at you... MUAHAHHA... But the edward scissorhand is cool!! ^^
Soon after this picture was taking i was being hurried out of the event hall by my friends...so that spells the end of my trip to the toy fair along with the only picture of the toy i have taken.... lol... ^^
An artwork for a friend... : )
Once again, I entered the sound studio for the the voice recording for stone boy
The overview of the small sound studio for a small production. Which I is good enough ^^
That's the sound designer sitting there, he composed the opening music for the stoneboy. And someone is inside the recording room, voicing for Stanley... the miserable character.... muahahah... ^^
In the recording room ( if anyone can see.. ), behind the microphone , and ready for recording.
I'm always nervous whenever I enter the recording room. In fact I could feel myself shaking slightly.
But after a few successful takes, the nervousness just fades away...There's suppose to be a screen in font of me... so that you could watch the animation as you record. ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶
Stoneboy is just a quiet character, so it didn't really required much voice acting. That's also because, he doesn't really do much stuff in the animation either. LOL.. he's STONE-boy after all. So throughout the whole animation he just go " huh" " hmm" " ahhh.."...
Even though my role in the recording is small n short, speaking as a newbie in voice acting, after the experience...voice acting is indeed tough. It's not just about going up to the mic and say whatever the character is suppose to say. It's also about giving life to the character, literally acting as if you are the character with just your voice. With just a simple " ohhh " i need a couple of takes to get that right. The pitch is either to low, or it sounded to feminine. Cause he supposed to sound like a cute boy, not some gay. And most importantly to sound expressive enough. Sound and music are the good friends to a animation film, a good music could push the film up to a higher level, covering up mistakes, making actions of the character clearer and conveying some stuffs to the audience which animation on its own would not be able to do it. Especially on emotions. ^^ A gd animation film is about team work after all = )
I guess to perform well as a voice actor, your really need to 敢敢做. When the character is screaming, you really need to scream. If its laughing, you really got to laugh. Pretending that the stage is yours. ^^ And applause to the voice actors behind the big screens... because they are really good. = P
