Christmas, Christmas time is near

Hi bunnies,

It has been a few crazy weeks of shoots, presentations, more shoots and finally, UT that stares me in the eyes at current. Life :')

So I finally got to meet Lenne thanks to the shoot J dragged me to a couple of days back. She introduced Haim to us and I tell you, I'm completely bought over. Done. I'm in. Fangirl waving hanky and weeping by the corner equates to my present state of being.

Now here, ass kicking music has to be shared so:


And they are like how chio please.
Okay puking rainbows aside, I've decided to save up for a camera and do some happy shooting on my own! Reason being that I'm so addicted to snapping and editing photos and it seems to be something I've dedicated myself to doing the last 2 years (if you've been with me on instagram and if not, @seatheskies hello nice to meet you). I figured it could be time I bought myself some gear to level up the quality of stuff I might possibly be able to produce.

So. I consulted some awesome people, JZ in particular who set my perspective in place (not just with cameras, you are the boss la thank you #wipestear) and I'm taking his advice and going with the Canon Rebel t5i (700D) that comes with the 18-55mm lenses.





And from there I will "grow with the camera --" wise words from the boss. I guess everyone starts somewhere and I hope I start here, and soon teehee.

ps: if you'd like to contribute to my camera fund for christmas I will lavs youuuuuu ~
ALTERNATIVELY, you can offer me jobs so that I can save up for it on my own (HA)


And I sidetrack here to say, my next cover's coming up!!!! Just did the track and am in the process of planning the mv for it which I will get done asap hopefully, and I'll try to post it up in 2 weeks max!

So goodnight fellow cotton cloud candies, and have a good night!

love,
sam

Toffeenut

Today, I headed straight for starbucks and I could smell christmas just about a hundred feet away from the door. :'D

Okay so I'm exaggerating but seriously, Toffeenut ALWAYS is the best sign that christmas is about here. Love it. 

Anyhow, this is what I've been up to in school. 







Can I just say I haven't enjoyed school this much in like, everrr ~
Maybe also, school hasn't felt this relevant the last year and a half. Nonetheless, I'm thankful that things are moving. 

HEADS UP,
I am looking to do part time/ portfolio building for any production: photoshoots/ plays/ music videos etc.
If anyone's looking for a make-up artist, art director, crew or stylist, do drop me a comment or email me @ samauditeur@gmail.com :)

Okay back to face work, good day all! I am so looking forward to dinner.

Song of the week (and to my own surprise):



Love,
sam

Carpenter Girl

It's rest day from insanity today. (phewf)

Inserts more mandatory after work out selfies from the past few days:




Okay I know I know, the last photo macham like sweaty vogue. 
But honestly, it was an accidental shot heh.

As of the last 10 mins whilst I'm typing here, it's my first week checked! Holey peanut butter james and jackers. #threecheersforself #whoknew #imstillwalkingyo ---- Okay getting ahead of myself.
I hope this spirit continues to last as the weeks progress.

On an encouraging note, I'm no longer aching horrendously.  #yay

Anyway.
I had stagecraft mod today and we...... constructed a hard frame from scratch!

Check this out:





















I might have hammered my thumb and breathed in a bit more than a little wood dust but yeah whatever. I walked out of the workshop looking like I did insanity (#werkin'them arms) and feeling all, "I are carpentarh!" 

Goodnight y'all, I will hug my heart and sing about something soon, you have my word :)

Love,
sam

Shiver

We uploaded the cover today finally!

Some background -- we recorded the track in about less than 2 hrs including the audio glitches (YIKES) that happened right after we exported the song :'D and so we took turns to film just 3 nights ago.

Here's my attempt at making the cover shot look like a film poster:




















Okay I kid. It just turned out looking like a one sheet.
(I might be hanging out with the chapman folks too much.)

*inserts random feels screen shots teehee.* 



Can I just add a heads up that I'm super embarrassed at how my "alone" sounds in the track. Jean taught me some vocal control shizzle and I was focused on trying to get the technique right that my diction just went out of the window :' *arhhhhh*

Nonetheless, I'd like to think this was one of our best covers thus far heh. Speaking of which, J and I are gna be doing a slot at the Swap & Shop event this coming Christmas!



Our show is on the 23rd, 4pm - 6pm @ the Marine Parade Promenade.
You can find out more about the flea event and their other cool stuffs here  :)

Alrighty so, here's Shiver by Lucy Rose performed by Jean and I :)



Thanks for stopping by you cool bunnies, have a fantastic day!

love, sam
