Hello, hello. Testing.
PD: Hi!
Hello!
PD: Do you talk to your parents about your job?
Yes!
Actually quite a lot.
From time to time.
My dad knows I edit videos, because I edit at home quite often.
I think he also knows I film.
But I'm not sure whether he knows I come up with the ideas.
I'm in the creative department.
So I do videography, photography,
and recently I became the head of comedy pillar.
PD: Does your child talk to you about her job?
All the time.
I know she's a videographer, she will edit it.
I also know she does comedy.
Because she laughs a lot in front of her laptop.
It's something like video editing.
Makes some music and combine it all together.
Photoshoot.
Presentation.
PD: What do you usually talk about?
When I take photos and edit them,
I don't know which edit is better.
So I will ask my family.
I usually refrain from talking about the technical side.
Because I know there's a lot of jargon.
I will just update them when I get a new project,
but I won't go in depth into what the project is about.
Usually I just show them the final product.
PD: Do you have any questions in regards to their job?
He needs to do a lot of things that we are not familiar with.
It's too technical for us to understand.
Sometimes she need to work long hours.
I just wonder if it's because of time management (issues),
or if her work really takes that long.
PD: On this episode of Singaporeans Try,
PD: you will become a mentor while your parents
PD: does your job for a day.
Oh wow!
I will be my parent's parent.
Nice to try, such as taking video.
Adjusting the lights here and there, quite interesting.
Excited. Scary. Because I'm not...
IT savy.
Ok Pa, so now I'll be bringing you around the office.
So this is the meeting room.
The whole team will come together and we will bounce ideas around.
So after we come up with the idea,
next is to research and come up with the video's flow.
So usually I do that at my desk.
This is the creative department,
and this is my seat.
That's where I know.
We have a collection of boards over here.
Oh
Whenever there's flat lays stuff, I will come here to get the boards.
This is studio S.
Usually when we come in here, we will set everything up like this.
Ok, I'll bring you to the next studio.
♪ Xue hua piao piao ♪
This is the chill area.
Usually I will come here to shoot comedies,
because it looks like home.
So TSL have 3 studios.
There are some simple comedies that we do,
we can use this entire room but film in different angles and diiferent parts (of the room).
So it looks like it's different place,
but it's actually the same room.
Now I'm going to show you some of the stuff I've done before.
We will start with flat lays ok?
I'm just going to show you an article that I took photos for.
Ok?
O. K.
A flat lay is usually an overview of what you are going to be looking at,
or reading about.
Understand?
Yah.
Hold on.
How to swipe to unlock? It keeps swiping.
How to unlock?
We are done with the textbook version of this training.
Ok...
Peps: Are you ready for the more hands-on -
Yes!
Bring it on!
You sure?
Yas!
Ok great! I love your enthusiasm!
Yes!
Ok!
*Grunts cause they are tired and bodies are aching*
Actually I was pretty impressed by how proactive you were.
You need this?
You want egg?
Salt?
You want mayonnaise?
Wow but that was a challenge, I swear.
I'm going to show you one of the drawings I did for TSL,
which is the thumbnail.
So what do you think of my artwork?
At first look, it looks very impressive.
But there are no words at all.
"Alamak (Oh no)!"
More life.
Add in more sound.
Then you see, your friend came to check as well.
Hello!
Now I'm going to show you how I usually do it.
So, I'm going to take a picture of you first.
Ok, can also.
You want to cover your face?
Ok.
You see.
Your father so old already, you know?
So many lines already, you know?
Now you know right?
Huh?
Ok, I will draw fewer lines for you.
Pa, I got a lot of hate comments.
This is the hand that carried you when you were born.
I was the first one to carry you.
Pa, I have a lot of hate comments.
People leave hate comments for me.
Why they give you hate comments?
They say I'm annoying and stuff.
AH HAHAHA!
You always laugh like that.
Laugh properly.
It's the way I laugh?
Why they give you hate comments?
Sometimes, sometimes I'm...
I'm a bit annoying.
But you please this one, you cannot please that one. You know?
They like you, they don't like other people.
So, it's normal in this world.
This is the drawing.
This is my dad.
Doing the... Do the thing.
You go and do a transition.
Let's move on to the next one.
Go and cover like that!
You must seen just now, I used my legs.
So I keep my arms still to make it smooth.
Try, try.
So fast?
Ok.
Lock in.
The fingers... How?
Up to you. Whichever works for you.
Wow.
Ok, camera rolling.
3, 2, 1 and action!
Oh my gosh!
Oh my gosh! What is that?
Ok.
I don't know what to do anymore.
So you have 2 challenges.
The first one is sketching.
So we do the same thing -
Take picture first.
Wow... You're already ahead of the game.
Just turn. I'll take (a picture of) your back.
Turn your head to one side.
So, are you ready to sketch?
My nose come from you?
I think I got your eyebrow.
Hope I don't have your hair.
Give me a sharper jaw.
When the PS5 come out, can buy for me?
Why you never answer me?
Ok, ok. I'm concentrating, you know?
Not bad.
I told you don't hunch, you see!
Even when I draw your picture also hunch!
I never hunch! I... I...
My dad is finally done with his work.
Very tired.
You want to do the reveal?
Just now I was drawing my son.
After using the phone to take the picture, and...
There.
This is the one.
I think for his first try,
I think you did a pretty good job.
60?
5... 50 la.
51 also cannot?
Just now i took a flat lay of fillet-o-fish right?
But yours will not be fillet-o-fish.
Ok.
Yours will be...
Bread and peanut butter.
Oh! But you'll be using a phone.
Beginner. Beginner.
Ok, so...
Condescending much.
Oh you gonna - You're already gonna do it?
Yes!
You want plate?
No need!
I will find out myself.
Your cloths are ugly.
Eh!
Actually I really meant it.
It's all ugly.
How do I do this?
How about you search for inspiration?
I think now you're a bit lost, right?
Yeah.
Or do you want magazines?
I think we have.
Hold on.
1, 2, 3.
Yas!
Do you like it?
Yeah.
I also.
Ok!
What are we going to do now?
We can go into editing now.
Ed-
We need to edit?
To enhance it a little bit. It's like makeup.
It's like you're already beautiful as you are.
Thank you!
But just you know, a little bit of makeup.
Ok.
So we're going to put it on the tablet,
because it's easier for you to edit.
You can see it bigger.
Like this, or like that?
Like that.
Ok! Happy with this one.
You can see the comparison. This is before.
You see! Pale right?
This is after.
Yeah. That's why when I saw this photo I was like,
actually it's ok but it can be enhanced a little more.
Oh yeah!
That's why you're the teacher, and I'm the student.
Now it's time for my father's final challenge.
He didn't want to do the peanut butter sandwich.
So you want to explain to us what you have in mind instead?
Ok, I'll be using the...
Tadah!
The sword!
Got this action.
And got blackout action.
You want me to use it, or you want me to call?
Don't need to use. Just pretend only.
Go.
You want me to stand up first?
Yeah.
Ok.
Ready, go!
Move forward.
Too fast.
Aiya! Never record!
Are you serious?!
Are you ready for your final challenge?
Yup.
You know you have to do a comedy video right?
Yup.
So the concept is,
what parents do when kids are home versus when kids are out.
I think for pre-planning, you can take maybe half an hour?
We are done with all of our different scenes.
And we have re-angled it to
life with kids and life without kids.
Just because I think it will be simpler.
I think we will shoot it faster also.
Yup.
Focus.
I am.
I think it took a lot of my brain power.
No wrong!
The single first, because it's like...
No! It can be both.
But usually you're single first before you become a mother.
The life without kids is the second one already.
No! This one is life without kids, means
she already have a kid but the kid is not at home.
No! Is single!
She's single! It's the same.
So we're done with the ideation and, good job.
So you're constantly looking at the time.
Looking at this and thinking, where are the kids?
I am a mother.
Action.
Hello! Hurry up! Bus is coming already!
Aiyah!
Very good.
Action!
When ah?
Oh! Wait, hold on.
These children...
These -
Wow that was - That was genuine.
So now we're at the final step,
which is to edit your beautiful footages.
Before we start editing,
we have to transfer the footage from the phone to the laptop.
So it will be the same as how we did it with the flat lay.
Ok, nice done!
Yes!
Ok.
Are you ready to watch?
Yas!
Eh! Breakfast is ready!
Hello!
Hurry up! Bus is coming already!
Ok bye! Be good in school.
Bye!
Oh! You're going away?
Oh, when?
Wait, hold on.
These children...
What are you doing?!
Done!
Yay!
Ok! Let's watch our final (video) one more time.
Ok!
Beautiful!
Thank you.
Thank you.
Personally, I will give it 10/10.
10 somemore?!
If I was legit your supervisor,
I will fire you.
On the first day.
But as your son, I love this video.
PD: How was the experience?
Very fun, very tired, very energetic. Is it?
How you tired and energetic together?
That's why!
This job makes you - You know?
It was really quite an experience.
It was funny, it was frustrating, it was tiring.
But I think you passed with flying colors.
When you talk to me you're already frustrated,
but you can still say "Ok, it's a good concept."
I see him - The way he work was very professional.
Very skillful.
Not an easy job.
Plus the new technology can *static sound*
Woah.
Something like when you transfer (files), don't need to plug in cable all these.
Just put your phone down there, and just go to your laptop.
Amazing.
He always do this. He always just use sound effects to explain.
You are somewhat known to be a 'same day edit' person, right?
Yeah.
Weekend she hibernates.
There are times where I was talking to her father and I'm like,
I didn't know it's humanly possible for somebody to wake up at 3pm.
But now right,
I know why. Because it's not only physically tiring,
it's also draining mentally.
In the past, sometimes for a few days
he never come back.
We are worried as his parents.
So when he comes back we ask "How come you never come back?"
He will say "Oh I'm working there. Very busy." all these.
So now I know for videos they create that's only 10 seconds,
takes so long.
Plus all the edits and everything...
PD: How well do you think you did today?
Ok.
So I know people need to be humble, but...
Let's put that aside for today.
Because this is the first time we're doing it as a team.
As mother and daughter.
And looking at the finished product, I think we did well.
Yeah.
Because I'm doing drawing all these stuff,
so for sketching I think I'm quite ok.
Only the video side,
I don't know what to do.
Honestly the flat lay really surprised me.
The comedy also.
It's not just about being able to laugh,
but having the storyline also.
Yeah.
I think it's all there.
And camera angles are all there.
I think we did great.
But I think more importantly is we had fun.
I can proudly say that I am very proud of my father.
For whatever he has achieved today.
And I feel this is a memory that we will both share forever.
Yeah, that's right.
PD: If we offer you a position to do this job, will you accept?
Depends on how much you pay me.
Oh!
Of course, why not?
New skill. Now the government - Learn new skill.
It's 'if' we offer.
If we offer...
You need a bit more practice.
Yes but I got ideas.
Ideas are better.
