Bobbi’s Pole Studio Singapore is a premier pole dancing school that offers unique opportunities for both women and men to learn pole dancing from professionally trained instructors. Every once, or sometimes twice a year, there will be a showcase opened to the public called Amateur Night where students of Bobbi’s Pole Studio get to participate, gear up and take center stage and perform for a huge audience!
This August 2012, Amateur Night was being held in Loof and I had the pleasure of documenting one of the participants, Chwenny, (a.k.a Mrs Sabotage of Royalefam) working her magic on the pole!
Special Thanks to Jamie for providing a secondary angle with her iPhone!

White Antler is a lifestyle brand that specializes in handcrafted home decor ornaments made for Art Lovers, Collectors and Connoisseurs alike, their product is the result of pure passion of a combination of DIY, eclectic style and daring design.
Conceptualized by Linda, founder of White Antler, The Skull Kitchen portrays a day in life for Linda which depicts the start to end process of handcrafting a Skull with a clever twist in a form of a cooking show.
When Linda shared her thoughts with me, I knew I had to capture some interesting process shots that would help make the whole film interesting. I wanted to highlight all the processes in a way that it would capture the audience attention and more importantly, to understand the passion and effort that was put into the making of the skull.
I really enjoyed producing and watching this video as it has reminded me to always operate out of passion in whatever you do and the results would show.

We started Purple Lights as a social running event where we meet weekly to run at beautiful routes and conclude it with a nice meal. Our commitment is to approach running as an expression of fun. Using the run + meal concept as a subject, we have formulated a project that consists of episodes profiling some of our members on a day in life film which would accumulate into a documentary that tells a b-side story about running.
It was a challenging task for me to document this event because I was running together with the crew and I had to hold a camera in my hand as well. However, I was not constrained by the lack of equipment (Tripods, Monopods, Steadycam etc) as my intentions is more of to tell the story than to get the perfect shot. Being clear on my objectives had allowed me to capture the raw essence of the whole event throughout the morning and afternoon.
I am really proud with how the video has turned out, what truly made the video worked for me is because it was an interesting subject, there were movements involved, beautiful textural shots, the typography, beautiful colors, proper direction and finally the music to portray the mood.
