Besok final preview "Dunia Sempit" di kantor Squarebox (production house), yang akan dihadiri oleh client Biore dan agency Dentsu. terakhir ketemu client dan agency mereka meminta gue untuk mencabut tiga line dialog yang mereka rasa terlalu kasar untuk project Biore mereka. sedang menurut gue dialog-dialog inilah merupakan kunci utama film ini. so, solusinya adalah gue membuat director's cut. Banyak problem yang gue temui di project "Dunia Sempit", tapi gue rasa probem-problem inilah yang ngebuat makin 'kaya' dalam pengalaman membuat film dan dealing with client . but... Banyak teman baru yang gue dapet di project ini. mereka adalah orang-orang yang 'beautiful' . Riri Bogar the founder of extra large community, she's amazing and also all the cast and crew. some crew were not too good to be discussed. Overall, i have another short film, "Dunia Sempit" a story about BIG girl and BIG dreams. Let's see tomorrow. :)

Film poster for "Dunia Sempit" design by Alam Taslim. Cute, sweet and naive. just like what i imagined. We had this green screen shooting and filled with the illustration work of the same poster designer Alam Taslim. This is the scene where Arie confess to the extra large cummunity about her dream... The extra large community perform belly dancing activities... Aty Fathyah sebagai Ririe Bogar, perempuan pendiri X-tra L community, komunitas orang berbadan besar dan Pinky Ovien sebagai Arie Preswanti, seorang cewek gemuk yang ingin kerja di dunia Fashion. Dalam kesehariannya, Arie hanya didalam rumah mengerjakan pekerjaan rumah seperti menyuci baju, menyetrika dan memasak, jarang keluar rumah. Arie merasa tidak nyaman dengan ukuran tubuhnya dan terkadang menjadi ejekan orang. Suatu hari Arie menemukan xtra large cummunity di Internet. This is me (glasses) with my DoP on my back. we collaborate before on some films. Dunia Sempit adalah sebuah film pendek yang dibiayai oleh Squar...

Hi guys, its been a while I didn't update this blog. Actually cancelling to stay at Bali is a big decission. because I'm doing short film project for January. This involve's Biore products and Squarebox films. it's not a TVC but a short film. i'm so excited because the story is very inspiring for people. I will re-write the story with my scriptwriter partner Baskoro Adi.

Yes! Audrey Hepburn.....

For the concept, i was trying to choose which scene is potentialy tells the story within 2 minutes. My producer allow me to do more than one scene but limited me to do less set, it was 2 sets. the room and the corridor. so i was trying to chose based on these sets. after I choose the scene, actually not the scene but the shots in the scene, then i made the storyboards. from these two sets i can make some scenes that enough to tell what's the story all about.

This is one of the scene that will appear on the trailer. I drew this storyboard. It's bloody hell.

Since I took this job ( direct a TV programme) i'm so fascinated with the richness of Indonesian culture. this will be a very good inspiration to my films. While i have to abandoned for a while for my first feature film. but i still thinking about it. :) the tv project will be take 2 weeks.
