Graduation Video shooting Day
Every year about 1 month b4 graduation day, we will engaged an outsourced comopany to help filming a 10-12 mins video. The purpose of this video is basically to inform and entertain the parents / industry guests on Graduation Day while they were waiting for the ceremony to start officially. For us CPT it usually invove filming some activities in the pilot plant and Q4 labs. Hopefully by next year when there is more labs open and ready, we can have more choices eg Q3 labs for Env / Specity Chem etc.
Each year, I am tasked to call for some 3rd year graduating students to come back to NYP to help filming. Year by year...I kind of feel that it is getting tougher and tougher to get students back. Students are involved in working p/t or full time very soon now comapred to the past cos the market is really good. The best years is of course 030X class ...we have like 15 students back to help. After that we go out for dinner at AMK. That kind of set the trend for later years of what to expect after shooting of videos.
Last year we only have 4 and this year I was also struggling to get more than 5....until last minute another 2 can make it...so we have 7 instead. I consider this already a very good number.
Some students just shy away when they know they need to face the camera, many are working in the extention of their PBP, some already started working officially!! So what is left of the grduating class really is not much to choose from. So really have to have the magnificient 7 who can come back to help. If not, when the video is shown to the parents...all are either MB or SIT students and no CPT students images.
Our filming time is in the morning this year, so the group acted from 9-1pm and finally when it's over, we went over to AMK to have lunch. Actually wanted to buy Pepper lunch, but thanks to Student H, who needs Halal food, then we all go eat Pizza instead. Wow that saves me 1/2 the cost. Thanks!! :)
The one who is enjoying most must be student E (my PEM cum class rep). He never thought he will be selected by the file director to be the main actor and was enjoying the limelight. Who knows, he may get use to it and will consider switch to acting after army. Hahahahaha.
I am not exactly sure when will they show the video...and does every one has a chance to see that video. It could be happening when students are busy lining up outside the hall for their turn so some may miss it. Some don't even know there is such a video exist!! Anyway...as i mentioned, the main aim is to entertain the guests and parents and NOT the students. But it would be very nice and fun if they can watch it.
We also kind of agreed that those who came back to help...get a chance to keep a copy of this v v rare and precious video too!!
