Nokia N96 Jump

Thursday, October 30th, 2008

This is the final post for N96 Launch event

So it was my turn to play Asphalt 3D using the N96.

Nothing much to do after that… so I took more photos of the device itself.

The N96 playing the promotional video, “Face The Task”

Then talked abit with the N79 girl and asked her to pose.. and as usual.. the peace sign. ahha

Soon after, a local band started to perform.

The N96 caught in action, recording a video of the band.

As we were near the ending of the event, we took some group shots… Victor, Will, David, Joshua and Me.

… and I jumped before I left.

N96 launch event

Wednesday, October 29th, 2008

This is part 2 of “N96 launch event”

So after the big guy announced the N96 on stage, models came out holding the device showing off to everyone.

The nokia managers joined them.

During the event, there was band performances and booths for ppl to try out the Asphalt 3D game on the N96.

A crew member is placed at each booth to guide us on the gameplay.

Victor and I stood there waited for our turns to play…

I figured it might take some time to wait for my turn so I went to snap the models again but somehow forced by my friends to join them to pose with the N96.. ahahhaa

… and finally it was Victor’s turn..

Here are 2 videos from that night.

MORE TOMORROW!

Porsche Cayman Jump

Tuesday, October 28th, 2008

Phew… finally 3 days of Double Exposure workshop has ended… starting now onwards it’s pure competition.

Anyways, here are 2 photos from today.

What are the chances of one being able to jump next to an RM700,000 Porsche Cayman with studio lights? Haha (Added to smashpOp Jumpilation)

OK back to my posts.

On 26th August, I went to the Nokia N96 launch event at KL Hilton.

I was the first 5 to arrive at the venue.. at around 645pm… then the people started to fill the registration area around 7pm onwards.

Ringo was there too.

Other then launching the N96, they also announced N85 and N79.. and we got to play with it 3 months before its available in the market.. so not bad … oh its out already by the way… can go buy at phone shops nearest to you.

Here comes the N96 launch speech by the boss.

MORE PHOTOS TOMORROW!

“My name is CRAP… POPCRAP”

POPCRAP 1

Today is the first day of our Double Exposure journey. The 30 of us were at the workshop whole day to learn about photography, getting to know each other and getting teammates. Unfortunately, today is the only day that we can bring cameras there cos tomoro onwards everything will be confidential.

Here are some photos taken during lunch.

2nd day is tomorrow.. and the challenge and evaluation will be very strict… and we are not allowed to bring our own cameras there… so no more photos from me til we finish recording in Feb! lol

POPCRAP 2

Few days ago, my colleagues and I went for lunch at Sushi Zanmai, Pyramid.

2 shots taken using my N96.

Bird Park Jump

Saturday, October 25th, 2008

Woot! This is the last post from bird park… but fret not.. there’s another additional post comin up.

What else did we see or do there?

We got attacked by angry birds… look at its face… omg

Then Joshua was so excited he wanted to take a photo of the bird.

“No! Dont! If you lie on the floor to snap it you wont have enough time to run away later!!” says richard..

“Aiyah… don worry lah… I’ve got Quick Focus LiveView”

He then put his A300 on the floor while squatting a bit to look at the pop up screen and took a photo of the birds… thanks to the liveview, he didnt need to lie down straight on the floor to take super low shots.

We quickly ran away… Phew! We escaped…

I was too excited I jumped… with two foreign tourist looking at me funnily. LOL (Added to smashpOp Jumpilation)

I like this shot. Do you?

We saw ducks too! Cute can!

OK la… thats all… we then left bird park..

.. but before that…

Another shot of me. ehehhehahehaheah

Parrots!

Friday, October 24th, 2008

Just came back from the movie… It’s not bad actually… though I prefer the first 2.

Story was very flat… but the dance choreography and music was superb. Rate it 7/10.

This is part 2! Many of you commented and say.. “how come bird park photoshoot but only 2 bird photos?”

So today I’ll show you a lot!… A lot of parrots! ahah

We went to this area where we can actually get up close with these parrots… feed them too.

Can really get close to them lor.. as long as you give them food, they’ll like u.

That’s us.. shooting at everything from different angles.. haha

More parrots!

… and then we started lying on the floor trying to get to the same level as the parrots eating.

This is one of my favourite shots.

MORE TOMORROW!

BirdPark Photoshoot

Thursday, October 23rd, 2008

On 17th august, my colleagues and I went for a photoshoot outing at KL Bird Park.

Richard, Ijan, Josh, Rames and Me… The weather was ok but the sky was flat white… damn dissapointed but don care.. since we were there already.. heh

I actually took quite a lot of photos but im just gonna show some that I like la ok. Like this one… we were greeted by a waterfall right smack in the middle of the park.

Then we saw some birds eating. This species of bird is called “Western & Victorian Crowned Pigeon”… damn long lah the name.. it’s like calling myself “The Magnificent Ultra Cool & Hemsem Smashin’ pOpstar” lidat.

Then I saw the gang kept shooting at a bird up high… then I joined them.. ended up I was the one who stood there for 15 minutes trying to get a good shot. haha

Once I was done I tried to catch up with them and they were here shooting something high again.
