Amazing Borneo; KK trip was awesome!
Short Films Screening
On May 11, Friday evening, we had a Deaf short films screening at Sabah Society for the Deaf, Kota Kinabalu. It was a full house where around 40 audience showed up to give support, included some Deaf students.

5 short films made by the Malaysian Deaf filmmakers were screened; "Bisikan Tangan", "Deaf Capoeira", " Lip Read", "Pelita Hati" and " The Park". These short films were screened during the Hong Kong International Deaf Film Festival 2012 too.

Neal, director of "Bisikan Tangan" and his cast members, which all are from Sabah shared their filmmaking experience with the audience.

After the screening, we hung out with some of them at Mamak stall, and tried Teh Tarik Madras for the first time.

Basic Short Filmmaking Workshop
The next two days, May 12 & 13, we had our basic short filmmaking workshop at Sabah Society for the Deaf too.

27 participants (Deaf, Hearing and OKU) were attended, included Deaf students.

To make it easier for the school students to understand, Kareem, the instructor had done some amendments on the teaching.
In the workshop, the participants were taught about producing, scriptwriting, directing, camera work, shooting, lighting, production design and editing.  The participants were asked to do some hands-on activities i.e. scriptwriting, shooting and editing.
