Teenage pregnancy is a big problem. In the slums the numbers are increasing. The quality of life in the slums can't produce skilled labor for the future. This leads to crime and other social problems. Teenagers in the countryside are just as at risk of pregnancy because many are deeply lonely. Their mum and dad have moved to Bangkok to work, so they tend to get in to relationships earlier.We want to know what the causes of these problems are, and show it to an audience. This story is highly significant, as it directly concerns the future generation of our nation.
We will follow two pregnant teens, one from the slums and one from the countryside. We will follow them to see their routine, how they earn their money and the difficulties they have to face. We will get to know their family members and see what level of family support they have. The nutrition of food they eat will affect their child. We will see how they are treated by others. We will focus on emotional interviews from both subjects, their families, a village matriarch and a psychologist.

by Thanyawee PhumejitpakdeeThis piece will focus on the lives of slum dwellers, their problems and stuggles.

With the high use of technology these days the world is more connected than ever. However many people do not realize that we are also more disconnected than ever to the world around us, and this can have devastating conseuqnces to our social life as well as safety.
How we will make our film: We are going to find a person to film their life and how they use technology too much, most likely because of their smartphone. They will shoot it themselves in POV style most likely with a GoPro camera. The story will attempt to show the bad things that can happen when you pay too much attention to your phone. These include showing up to class late or causing poor grades, making your friends angry with you, or car crashes while texting and driving.
The whole look of the film will be a modern day technology filled context, where technology is becoming more and more parts of our lives. Other than the GoPro first person point of view shots, there will be some other normal third person shots to establish scenes and provide context.

The story about Eric, an unfortunate son of well-known astro-physicist family, He has been deaf for 28 years. He is interested in science and determines to find an answer for things that are yet, seemingly far fetch from mankind reach. His dad supports him in every ways but people always look down on him including his own mother. One day, his dad has passed away because of cancer he got while working on the experiment. His hope has collapsed and his mom leaves him because she has never felt love with Eric since the day he was born.
He lights his hope up by continuing his dad’s experiment of Alcubierre Drive. He tries to make up the team by contacting his father’s co-workers but everyone rejects him so he tries to do everything he could by himself. Surprisingly, six months later, he finally invented Alcubierre transmitter that can contact with unidentified intelligent life form…that he can only be perceived by Eric. At his first sign of hearing, he was down in his tears of happiness. After that, he is addicted to his machine and began to with intelligent life form in the future.
He presented his work to many scientists in the hopes of people recognizing him like how his father has been remembered but all of them refuse to take him seriously. Finally, one of his dad’s colleagues interests in his work and invited him to join the lab.
Element of surprise:
In an ironic twist, he was taken to a mental hospital and not the lab his dad’s colleague mentioned. It turned out that his experiment about ‘Alcubierre Transmitter’ is a complete imagination. He found nothing and he heard nothing instead after the passing of his dad, he got monophobia.
Look of the film:
The film mostly focuses on Eric’s life and his struggles to replicate his dad’s success The story is categorized in a combination of dramatic and scientific.

You only know how important something is when you actually know how it reaches you. The more you consume it on a daily basis, the less you know this. What do you use in a daily basis in the campus life? Imagine a student canteen just next to your faculty. Do you actually eat there every day? If yes, which restaurant do you like the most? If you have a favorite place, do you know why it’s special to you? Do you know the people who work hard to deliver you cheap and good food? They are definitely part of you life, then why don’t you want to get to know them?
The film depicts one day of the Muslim Cook who runs The Star & The Moon. It starts on 5 am in the morning when the restaurant starts cooking foods, and ends on the time the restaurant is close. The production team will do the shadowing to the cook. The film will mainly show the process of running the restaurant, but also insert several interview scenes of the cook, her colleagues and customers along the main flow. The ending scene would be emotionally touching, but it hasn’t been decided yet since none of the footages have been shot yet.
Since the documentary film focuses on what is happening in the campus, the audience (TU students) will easily relate themselves into it. The audience will also be excited to be able to know how their foods are made and preciously taken care by “grown-ups”, because they might not know what is happening behind the scene.
Possible questions of the interviews are:
The person in charge of this position will organize all the appointments with the interviewees. (Scheduling)
Since the team needs two cameras, s/he needs to lead the cameramen.
S/he will take care of lighting and electricity in all the situations (inside and outside shootings).
Including both above and below the line people, there must be at least 7 people in the team (3 above-the-line people & 1 interviewer, 2 cameramen, 1 electrician)
Setting
Unknown Wasteland in the year 2274 when the citizens of earth have been affected by radiation, they have been fighting and killing over the limited resources available making the world increasingly hard to live in. People who are ‘safe’ have locked themselves up the Vault in order to keep themselves and their kin away from the danger of the outside world.
Main character
Plot
The boy is the son of the person of authority within the vault. Resources are needed, therefore, assigned adult members of the vault take shifts in their resource gathering duties outside the vault. Exit from the vault needs to be authorized for other people such as the boy. The boy uses blackmail to frequently enter and exit the vault as he pleases.
The boy finally meets the girl. Their clear personality differences make the boy hugely interested in the girl and vice versa. As time passes, their relationship grows stronger. Stories of each of their lives are told meaning that both of them now know how much more comfortable living the vault is. The boy sympathizes for the girl, eventually inviting him back to the vault for a more comfortable life.
Looking at the film from the girl’s perspective, her relationship with the boy was basically a lie in order to earn more information about what she needs to do to take over the vault with her savage community. The girl influences the boy in a negative way where he learns bad things from the girl such as killing wild animals or lying. (Before this, the boy seems innocent the people within vault practically in order in routine life) After the boy left the Vault for 2 years, he comes back with a ‘savage’ side to his personality meaning that he can now lie without hesitating even to his own community within the vault(although he still show signs when lying e.g. does not make eye contact).
We now see that the boy wrongfully prioritizes the girl before his own community within the vault. Because the Vault does not allow people outside to get in no matter what, the boy wants to help the girl to get into the Vault as she intended. The girl and her savage community successfully break into the Vault with the boy assistance. The savages take over the Vault by killing everyone.
The boy realized that he made a terrible mistake and question the girl of her action. The girl replied with a bullet and said “You never belonged with us.”

Nowadays, being a doctor becomes a social value that smart people should be a doctor. This career has high income and makes you look better and higher than other people. So, this film will show that actually being a doctor is to help other people.

Today’s people in the society are changing. They are not very nice and kind to each other because they are self-center and becoming more independent. Technology has become a major part of their life especially mobile phones because they are addicted to social media such as Facebook, Instagram, and Line. They are always holding their phone everywhere they go.
Comparing to the past, people are very kind and willing to help each other. It obviously sees that most people know they own duty and their responsibility. Therefore, this film will reflect what have been changes in the society and how people in today’s world adapt to those situations.
This film will show the difference between the past and present. In the past time, we will present the film in vintage style and move to the modern world. For the transition, we will use special effect and computer graphic to change the scene from the past to the present. Showing the old town and building gradually change to the new and tall building that look like the real city in today world.

Thailand is currently ranked as the 66th country with the highest suicide rate of 0.0061 percent as per the total number of population, which is one life every two hours. The highest suicide rate lies in the teen age years to middle ages. The most common method is hanging. And the motives of committing suicide are mostly family relationship, miscommunication, business and lover’s quarrel.
Treatment:
Depression Symptom is a disease that people should be aware of. It is not common a common known in Thailand. How it is danger? It leads people to commit suicide.
A boy name Petch grow up unfortunately in a slum. He is now studying in a temple near by his house. His father did not work, but spent most of the time with alcohol and gambling, that is why Petch’s mother left them behind. Petch sell garlands for living but his father often took the money to spend with alcohol and gambling. Petch did not finish his middle school. At the age of 18, he tried to commit suicide by hanging but failed. Petch woke up in the hospital; beside him there is a psychologist.
Psychologist has a chance to talk and explain the meaning of getting depression symptom. Doctor is willing to help Petch from this struggle. Petch received a treatment and got out of the hospital. He did not waste his second chance, he is currently working in a garage not far from his old house.
Interview documentary: Doctor explains how to avoid depression symptom and how to help people around you from getting the symptom.
Look of the film:
The film will blend a documentary style of nonfiction with mock up story of kid living in slum. For the mock up fiction part, we will use a low saturation to pull out people emotion, to make kid look unfortunate. We might also lower the exposure if necessary. The transition will be jump cut to switch things around. For the camera techniques, we will be focusing on dolly and panning to slow downs the frame to make it look dramatic. For the lighting technique, will be using low-key light along with rim light.

Director
I have good vision how the slum should be shot since I have visited and have shoot a short documentary there once (Slum Klong Toey). I would like to do documentary work instead of fiction.
I want to be a writer of this documentaries and I'm need people to help me to make it happen. Please let me know if you are interested in this non-fiction too.
Most of Thai people are Buddhist and Buddha statue is one of the most respected objects to Buddhist. But how many really know the process of making them. Every statue has its own story and I think that it is very interesting.
The film is a process documentary. I want to show the film in a nostalgic way. The look of the film will be constructed with high vignette, high saturation and rich colors. I want to insert interviews as well as voice over. I want to have a mixture of different shots in the film.
Positions needed in this film are editor, director, producer and a few below the line positions.
If you are interested
There is a nice bronze foundary in Pitsanulok that casts Buddha images. โรงหล่อพระบูรณะไทย There are nice people there and they are easy to talk too. No one has made a really nice film about them, yet. While you are there, you could get some stock footage of the most beautiful Buddha image in the world at Wat Mahatat.
Producer for fiction and/or documentary
For the fiction, I understand the same visions that the director wants. I like to coperate with the teams, manage things, set schedules and negotiate with people. For the documentary, I shot a short video about people with different money and it's very interesting to explore thier lives, so I would like to join that team to make the best documentary happen.Director
I have good vision how the slum should be shot since I have visited and have shot a short documentary once (Slum Klong Toey). Ever since, I have planned everything in my head how the final piece should be. I would like to do a documentary instead of fiction.

The story is very interesting and I would like to apply to be the director for this piece. Also I am thinking about the location, you mentioned both Klong Toey and Kalasin. So I just wonder where is the actual location going to take place or we must shoot for both location? This is because Kalasin is quite far and I think I dont have enough budget to travel there. Please let me know. Thank you.

I want to be a writer for this film. It is definitely fiction and I have some interesting ideas to add to this already exceptional film. I'm only going to suggest some changes in the two main characters story lines. The male lead sounds like he is suffering from a mental disorder called Schizophrenia, please correct me if I'm wrong. He doesn't know what is real and what is not. Since this is a short film, I want him make him the main focus rather than the lead girl. I want the film to act out his daily routines and how people act around him. He will fall in love with the main girl but she will turn out to be his imagination and the film will end after he realizes that she is not real. I want us to be able to portray to raw emotions of the two leads and how real their feelings are.

I want to be a writer for The Fighting Cock. Since, I always have an interest with the cock fighting in Thailand and always wonder about the origin and reason behind the fight.
For this story I want to focus on the relationship between the cock and the owner, as well as how they raise and train the cock. Moreover, cock fighting is a long time debate topic whether it is ethical or unethical, so I want to include an ethical issue in the story as well.
As a writer I will plan the story of cock fighting and reveal the unknown truth about this tradition fighting sport.
The story will start off at the cock keeper house; this will allow us to see how he/she train the cock to be a strong fighter. The story will go along and lead by the cock keeper, in other word; we will shadow him/her. We will include the relationship between the cock and its owner, as well as the training. It is very important that the story need to be solid so that audience will follow the story till the end.
At the end we will show the climax scene at the cock fight stadium. The particular cock and cock keeper that we are all following will be in the battle. This is the scene that audience is waiting for, so it must be excited and be able catches their concentration.
Finally, after watching this non-fiction (documentary) the audience will get an interesting knowledge and angle towards cock fighting in Thailand.
I am an enthusiastic writer. I’m looking forward to work with you all. ^ ^

- 4 DSLR camera man is needed, every moment that we can capture is essential because we do not know what is going to happen, and that is the excitement.
- Writer who can capture the sport detail and emotional content together.
- Editor who will be able to identify the most important and essential content and footage that is needed.
- Producer who can manage to get the team out of trouble.
- Sound recorder
- Lighting crew
My position will be director and I am waiting for you all to join me in this thrill ride.
I want to be a producer for this film. Since this story is very interesting and I love that how you wrote it. I love to do managing the work like budget and schedule the date and I want to take this as my responsibilty. Also, I like to negotiate with other people. This will be an oppurtunity and challenging for me. I willing to help you out. Thank you!
Daniela, it's not enough to simply ask for the position. You must make yourself so valuable that they can not refuse. For example, this story is still very weak. Can you find a writer to create an exploratory draft and then post it for them to see? A producer will be responsible for casting. Can you find some head shots of actors who perfectly match the part? Or the names of some casting companies? Do you have any ideas for fund raising? Perhaps you could start a crowdsourcing campaign for this project.
These types of activities will make you an indispensable team member.
I want to be a writer for this nonfiction film. The “Bodybuilder Documentary” film will be representing the passion and dedication of the bodybuilders. I want to reveal the true life of the bodybuilder professionals who have a firmed self-control for an excessive progression of exercise and strict eating routines. Moreover, what interesting and importance about this film is the inspiring story of the bodybuilders who have transformed their body into a musculature and represented this sport as the beauty of body figure. Most of all, I want to bring out this film as a motivation for the audience to concern more about their health and exercising.
Moreover, the concept of this film will be like a reality show which shadowing a life of particular bodybuilder athlete. The film will be representing in the inspirational and vibrant theme. Most of the setting will be at the national bodybuilding sport complex, a professional bodybuilder’s house, and fitness.
Essentially, I’m look forward for a productive director, producer, editor, and around three to four people for below the line position. I hope some of you might want to work with me on this project. Let’s join me friend!

Bodybuilder is the process of developing the musculature of the body through specific types of diet and physical exercise, such as weightlifting, especially for competitive exhibition. I’m interested in this topic because nowadays many people had misconception about being beautiful. They think that being beautiful should be skinny and white but in fact strong can be beautiful too.
This film will be documentary. I want to shadow one person who prepare for a match in body builder contest that will happen soon in April. I want to shadow them since the first day they start until competition day and also I want to show how hard they try and how much time they spend on this. To make my documentary more interesting, I want to focus on women body builder than men if possible because many people think that men can only have muscle, in fact, women can too. Also, I want to show another angle of being strong is beautiful thing too.
This film will be shoot at National Body Builder where they practice and I need 2 camera for this film.
I want to be producer in this film because I think I’m good at negotiate with people.

I would love to be the writer for “Never Easy” since I have a lot of interest and knowledge upon LGBT or gay issue in both romantic and social concern aspect.
LGBT issue is needed to be concern even more in the time of its expansion especially in Thailand where people and media are trying to promote the homosexual to the public. It seems like the society already accepts these LBGT people but the fact is, gay people are still being different in the eyes of many people in society. This film is trying to show the audience that gay love is just normal as other kind of relationship and shouldn’t be refused from the society. Also, it try to encourage the audience that the main important factor for LGBT acceptance is starting from the LGBT people themselves and people around them before every others. It is not only enlighten the audience on LGBT issue, but also to entertain with a love story between two guys which may change the attitude of someone toward the gay love into the better perspective.
There will be two important characters which are A and B, a roommate from different faculties. A is our main character studying in faculty of journalism who has a pale skin, a bit short for guy, skinny with big eyes. He has a habit of chewing gum almost every time. He is always confusing within himself and thinks of every little thing around him, we can say that he has less self-confident. For B, another character will be a taller handsome guy with a balanced muscular. He doesn’t talk much to other except A, looks so high in other’s eyes but when he is with A, he usually act like a spoiled child. The timeline within the story will cover around one semester of their university life, taking place mostly in their dormitory, around university campus, and some scene in the character’s house. The story will mainly revolve around A who has fallen in love with B for a while, but he never want to accept or tell B because of his fear, anxiety, too much care on society’s perspective, also, his family doesn’t like the homosexual. A is trying to reject himself and hiding his feeling toward B but it’s not easy at all. Everything B does to A is just making A falling harder for him and it even creates the stress and confusion for A since he doesn’t want to love B and be gay. The film will latterly reveal that B is also falling in love with A but he never tells because he afraid that A doesn’t love him. After B knows that A is also love him, he will try everything to makes A accepts that feeling and accept of what he is showing that being gay is not wrong. Finally, A will understand and accept himself at the end. The whole story might looks basic and plain, but I hope that it will come out cute and encouraged. As it can helps changing audience attitude toward LGBT love for just a little bit, I think it is enough and worth making it.
There should be at least two cameras needed at a time. The place includes university, dormitory, and house. We need two guys for our two characters, A and B, along with at leases 10 extras. The story is definitely including many scenes, I wish we can finish shooting each scene within a day to prevent the continually errors. The director who has the same vision and interest like me is very essential. Also the best editor is needed.
I think it would be nice to work with you guys, if any of you interest on this story, please come and join my team in order to make this treatment into reality! I’m looking forward for helps :D
I wanted to be part of the film "Fading light" as a director or an actor because of this following reason. When I read the plot story of this film, I was able to see pictures of each scene and the theme of the movie in my head. I can able to think of an awesome dialog for this movie. And if I get to be an actor for this film, I think I can make a good performance on it. And also, I really like the ending of the story when the girl put a bullet into the boy, I think that part is unique and not cliche at all, it sounds a liitle bit like a psychopath film and for me it was cool.
What if your brain were exchanged with someone else, would you still you be yourself or you would be considered the guy who exchanged brain with you. What if you accidently killed the guy who exchanged brain with you, did you killed that person or you actually killed yourself. It brings up a question, who are you and what can represent you? Your body or your brain? This is a fiction story about brain exchange. A man and a women were caught by group scientists who want to discover how brain work. Their brains were exchange and they were sent back to their home —where the brain used to live—during their coma. After they wake up, they find they are living in others body. They didn’t know each other before, they have never met. But now they have to start find each other, or their own body.
The movie starts from a laboratory, group of people are exchanging brains of someone. We can’t see the face of brain owner now. The scene back to girl’s apartment (she is in male’s body now), she wakes up on her bed, feels different, she goes to mirror, she is scared. She only remembers she was caught, but she has no idea what had happened. People around her don’t believe what she says. They consider her as another person. She is lost, and asks “who I’m I?” the girl and man who exchanged brain heard their brains were exchanged and they start to find each other. End with the girl in man’s body killed the man, her body, or maybe herself.
I hope there will be a great team to finish this film. A good producer is required for helping produce. Also actor and actress are important, because I think characters in the story are very hard to act. Their psychological movement, feeling and thought are very complicated. Need a good editor. I am willing to be either writer or director. I hope this could be big.
This is the fiction story that I want to do long time ago. This is a story about one couple in their anniversary date. Start with the cliché scene, the clock alarm woke 'Guy' up. He closed the alarm and sleep for ten minutes. That's why he's late for 35 minutes. Lin was very upset because this isn't the first time that he's late. They having lunch together. Guy seems bored and he always play with his cellphone. Lin asked him to stop playing cellphone today because it's their three years anniversary. Guy pretended that he cares but whenever Lin unaware he started look at his cellphone again. After their lunch they went to see movie. Guy fall asleep while Lin was enjoy. After finished the movie, his phone were ringing. When Guy see who's calling he secretly went to answer the phone. Lin saw that. She was so disappoint that Guy treated her this way. She decided to go home. Then Boom!! The car crashing. She died.
Clock Alarm sound Guy woke up again. He was shock. Everything feels real. Start with the Cliché scene. He dressed up and went to the date late again. Lin was saying the same thing like his dream. He felt weird and thought to himself that it's just a bad dream. When they finished watching movie, his phone ring again. His mistress was calling. Guy decided to not answer the phone. Jane, his mistree, texted him. He used a few minutes to text back. Boom!! car crashing sound. Lin died.
Clock Alarm sound Guy woke up quickly. He tried not to be late. But this time the bus was late. This time he was nicer with Lin. This seems to be a fun date. He turned off his cellphone and walked Lin to the taxi. Then Jane was there. She shouted at Guy. Lin was at the road and she turned to them. Boom!! Lin died again. Clock Alarm sound Guy arrived there before one hour. Then Lin showed up. Guy ask Lin to go to other place but Lin refused because she already reserved the table and the movie ticket. Guy won't go there no matter what. They started to fight. Lin decided to go home. Boom!! Guy couldn't save her again. No matter what he tried he couldn't save Lin. He saw Lin died many times. Then when the day restart again, this time Guy decided not to go to the date. Maybe if he won't show up this can save Lin's life. He turned off his cellphone and sleeping all day. When it came to 6 p.m., he turned on his cellphone. His friend called him and told him that Lin got in an accident. She can't make it. Guy was screaming and ask god to restart the day again.
Clock Alarm sound This time Guy doing everything with his heart. Lin was very happy that the old Guy who treated her like his precious thing was back. While they were watching movie, Guy hold Lin's hand and looking at her all the time. Lin felt weird that he acted this way, but that doesn't mean she didn't like it. Then before they went home. Guy hold Lin tightly and confessed that he cheated on her. He knelt down and started crying. He didn't beg for forgiveness. He asked Lin to not going home and punch him in the face. Before Lin break up with him last thing he wants her to do is to hurt him in physical but please don't go home now. Lin was looking at him quietly and said that she knows everything. With all these years Guy have done many good things to her. If he promise to not hurt her again she will forgive him and start it all over. Guy started to cry again. At this point he realize that he was an A**hole and Lin is the best girl in this world. They go eat an icecream and the day stop to restart over.

Open Your Eyes.
As I'm interested in fiction film, I want to develop the film 'Restart' and make it happens. As i read along the detail of the film, I understand what the look of the film the director wants it to be and I realize that I want to be the producer of this film because I think I have the ability to find appropriate characters for the film and I want to add some characteristics of the main characters. I think I'm good at cooperating and communicating with teams. So, I think I can manage well. I also have some interesting locations in my mind that will be used for shooting such as the location for the restaurant and the house.
I want to be the producer for this film.
I interested about this film because it can be a documentary instead of fiction. I introduce you to use the location around Rama9 slum community where we can shoot a different life styles of both poor and rich people at the same place. This area also located near by the community school named Param 9 Kanchanapisek School and Param9 temple as well. So, it would be another perfect location. Moreover, I also have connection with the people in this area such as the teachers and the monks since I used to studying at Param 9 School long time ago. I thought that the angle of camera will have lots of medium shot and close up to see the detail of the object or activities that they the people in slum do such as what they eat?, Does it a low cost product or not? Why they still use a fake Louise Vuitton instead of the bag that they can effort to buy it?, etc, … I plan to shadowing them from the sun rise until at night to show everybody what are they usually do during the day, what the relationship of people in slum or does it differ from the others. I wish to see the over all film looks a live. We should make our documentary by using the main character explain about his/her life and tell the all part of the story at the same time.
This is the example of the film that I plan to apply for our work.

Dear A.Sam
I did steal the idea of restart the same day from the edge of tomorrow. But I have never seen other films that you mentioned above before. Thanks for your information, now I have to add three movies to my must watch list. Those films looks interesting anyway. <3
I will contact Miss Patcharapa as she seems to be a good producer to my film and we will discuss more about how to make this short film different from others. Thanks for your reply.
Watcharakorn
I'm very interested to be a part of producing this movie. I really like the way the movie is told and how it plays with the repetition of the situation but with changes to make the movie develop as it goes. The role I want to do is a writer as I think I have enough ability to make Watcharakorn's vision come real through words. Also, I like to write both in Thai and English, so I think I could make the script well written enough to be understood clearly by everyone in this production team. Moreover, I also have some idea for the mood and tone of the story and know how to describe different scenes on the script. I have also thought about some of the dialogues that the characters could say in order to make conversations go along smoothly with the film.
Moreover, I think if I could discuss about this movie more with Watcharakorn (the one who came up with this film), I could help make the piece better as I thoroughly understand her vision and the overall image she has in mind about the film.
Lastly, I really like this kind of movie that plays with the repetition of time, and I think this is the good opportunity for me to improve my writing skills through the kind of story I'm very interested to be involved with like this "Restart" film.
Hi mook,
Thanks for you input.
For this page, it would be much better to post examples. Instead of saying, "I have some ideas for the mood and tone…", say:
INT. RESTAURANT - NIGHT
GUY and LIN are staring into each other's eyes over a candlelight dinner. The lighting is a soft yellow fuzz. SOFT MUSIC plays as the clink glasses.
GUY

I'm sorry.
LIN

It's alright.
See what I mean? Don't say what you are going to do. Take a stab at it.
A. Sam
Welcome Miss Benyaphar!! Actually, I want you to be my writer in the first place due to your writing piece in class. Let's see who else seems interesting in our film so that we can have a meeting soon.
To Ms. Watcharakorn
I'm really interested in the idea of witnessing someone being killed over and over!! I also love this story plot because it's fiction, which is usually not boring because we can inject every drop of our imagination into it. I'm wonder if I'm a DP for your story, I might be able to release my imagination through the angle of the camera. So, I'd like to join your team!
After reading the treatment of this story, I am totally interested in it. I want to be a writer in this production. Although I think the treatment already show good plot of the story but I also want to add some changes in the story that will make it better, especially when the main character, Ake, try to find Nam who had disappeared. I feel like there is a hole in the plot that why Ake did not go to the police for finding Nam. I want to create another mysterious identity of Ake’s character so there is a reason that the main character, Ake, cannot report the missing person to the police. I also want to use that mysterious character to create situations between Ake and Nam before Nam disappear. I believe adjusting the plot can help to make the story stronger and become a really great production.
Restart
I want to be the editor for this film. I personally agree with your ideas. After I read about your film I really interested about your fiction film, because the Edge of Tomorrow also my favorite fiction film. If I have a chance to working with the production team and produce the film that similar to my favorite one, it will be great!
Moreover, I can do a difficult job with thoroughly skill especially for using the final cut pro programs. I appreciate to make this film come through and develop some ideas of the story with the effect in final cut pro for expanding the enjoyable of the film. Thank you.

Takato Mitsunaga (5507640281)
I would like to be a writer on the story. The writer on this documentary must come up with the good questions, storylines, and when the film is once done, the writer has to promote it by elaborating a press-release. I have been writing news these days, so I think I'm appropriate to the position. I already formed a group of doing this project. I wil post about it later.
for this film, I want to be a director or editor because I was the one who help to build the treatment and plot of the story. so, I got many things about this film in my heart. I have think about the sequence of the scene. And imagine mood and tone for some scenes. The emotion of main actor, Aek, is very important because it bring the story forward, so it will be good if i can work with this film.
I want to be editor for Life in Slum because document film is one of my favourite one too. I do watching the non-fiction thing on TV, because it really happen in our world and they show it by using the art of story telling. Life in Slum is an interesting one, poor people stay around ove the bangkok so they pay very important role in our province and country. I was thinking about doing non-fiction film for long time.

For myself, I would like to be in charge of the visual aspect of this film. I believe I can do this because I know that what matter in a good film is the quality, or a good vision of a director. Not only that, but I also have a good communication skills to speak the vision into life. I can be a good leader with creative vision who can understand and execute the craft and I can physically and mentally handle the demands of the job. I am very enthusiastic after sharing ideas with the groups. This topic is very interesting in term of boxing in general and the content we want to generate. I believe that this film needs a great amount of Thai vibes (ไหว้ครู/ร่ายรำมวยไทย/ Thai waving flag/ sounds of ring when each round ends/ crowd cheering on the game/ Thai traditional practices) to make it more unique and moving. The story needs a professional boxer to reveal his opinion and feeling about boxing for the viewers to feel even more involved with the film too. The hardest part of this film is the vision of the overall film. Every year people make a film about boxing, but I believe non has done it in a way to show the long-established history of Muay Thai in a beautiful moving way. I am beyond excited to start this project. It will definitely be a fun, adventurous, educational and a great experience! Location is still undecided; suggestion for now Lumpinee Boxing Stadium and Rajadamnern Stadium
Production Needs:
2 Camera Man
Quality and style over everything! As mentioned earlier, this video will be presented in a unique perspective which will be reached, in a very moving way! We need someone who can put this in mind and in heart because it is through your lens the story will be told from.
Producer
Muay Thai Warrior needs to access two locations. The actual combat station and the tradition boxing camp. Both of the location need an access to the location. We need spaces and locations must be available. Not only that but the place need to be filled with energy. Also, we need to contact a boxing guru who has been involved with Muay Thai for a long time. Anyone who can be responsible for obtaining difficult permission and manage budget and distribution of the film after completion.
Writer
Someone who has a big vision and a good sense of imagination. Someone who can see beyond what there actually is in the actual world. Someone who can draft this project into life and not just that but also enthralling and moving.
2 Editors
Someone who has good skills of editing and a sense of good style. An editor who has great skill and good taste, can definitely help bring out an outstanding video style with a pinch of perfect touch. A good skill to edit softwares and after effects and also has an interest in Muay Thai.

<A Day in the Life of a Cook>
I would like to be responsible in the position of editor for a work of this non-fiction. During my sophomore year, I was involved in making a video for the university, and I was a member of the editor team. The editing work took much more efforts and time than I had expected, yet it helped me understand the whole process of creating film. The job as an editor requires a person who is patient enough to deal with the whole story line and is able to carefully check the little details. I believe I have those skills, and moreover, I have an experience of using the Sony Vegas, and therefore, they will contribute to a process of making high-quality film.

To me, this movie sounds very exciting and I really want to makes this movie happened. I want to be an editor for this movie. I actually have some skill for editing since I used to edit some work before. I know that film editor need to very careful because they need to go thourgh every footage and I think I am pateint enough so this won't be a problem forme. Moreover, I will go to each location while shooting the movie so that I will know the sense of how the shooting is processing. Therefore, I am looking forword to be part of this team and I hope that my editing part will be able to reach the vision for the film.

After I read this story, I have a clear vision that this film is going to be interested to make so I want to be a producer to manage this production. In my mind, I already plan a perfect location in Bangkok such as a house, bar, and designer’s workplace. The studio will be shoot in Thammasat University because it has a photography workshop for a male character. Next, I have a connection with a clothting store owner in Peninsula Plaza. This can be a perfect location for designer's workplace. Lastly, I want to add 2 more supporting characters to be in this story because I need a main characters to intereact with their friends. I'm agreed of what the writer have said, the male lead will be a main focus rather than a female lead.

To Miss. Watcharakorn
As I just finished reading your idea, I think it is very unique and interesting. I have been wanting to be a part of creating fiction film. I want to make it happen. If you still have editor position available, please consider me to join your crew as an editor as well. I have some experiences and skills of editing video. I want to try editing the part where she has been hit by a car. It should be fun. I want to edit romantic drama film. I have some more ideas, that I would like to suggest you to add into this film, like making it very emotional everytime the girl gets hit by the car and using white fade and good sound effect every time the day restarts. This is a very good opportunity for me to develop my video editing skill.

I wanted to be a Producer for “A Day in the Life of a Cook “. I always love to eat! , food is one of my big passion and I use to wanted to own a restaurant or a bakery shop (still do), I think that by being a producer for this documentary will gave me a chance to look deep inside about what is going on behind the life of a cooker, what hardship or challenge they how to face each day and what is like to own a restaurant.
Being a producer means you have to control the overall production, producer has to find and acknowledge promising material also as a producer you have to have a good communication skill as you have to work and organize things with many people. As for myself I like to communication with people, I like to meet new people and I believe that this is also a good opportunities for me to use that skill as a producer for this documentary.
I want to be a cameraman because I think above the line are full of people. Haha.
The way you presented your idea makes me want to join you and the team. The reality type and the another side of the story; the intimate relationship between the coach, the cock, the family and friend. I want to be your editor. I have a skill in editing and a sense of good style. I think I can help bring out an outstanding video style and show the intimate relationship between the pet and the owner very well. I believe I have the eyes and skill to identify the most important and essential content and footage that is needed. This is exciting! It would be nice to edit a document that is a reality TV form.

Dear, Watcharakorn
I really interesting in your story, it is full of emotional and complexity. As I read through all details in the story, I really excited to make this story happens so that I want to be a producer for this film. I ensure that you will not disappoint on my work because I am very flexible and have a good responsibility. I know how to manage the schedule and budget as well, and I also have ability to negotiate with other people. Now, I can think of people who suitable for two main characters. They are my friends from high school, and they are really good at acting. For the location, I also have ability to find the suitable place for shooting such as the bedroom scene of male character, the movie scene, and the restaurant. Lastly, if you already have a producer position, please consider me to join your team as a co-producer. I am willing to help you guys develop your film and I am sure that I can work so well with your team. THANK YOU.
Life in the slums
Personally, I really like the documentary film because you don’t have to set up the scene for making it interesting like fiction film, the content will create and show its whole story. So, after I have watched the old one of this documentary film. It made me interesting to be a director of photography because I know how to tell the story through the picture and I know the right composition as well. For this film, I want to develop some part of the scenes to make them more interesting by focusing on the expression of slum people in Klong Teoy. If this position is unavailable, please consider me as a cameraman. I really want to work with this challenge film story and want to be a part of your team. THANK YOU.
The Perfect Departed
After reading the Perfect Departed, I think I kinda like the plot of this movie. It gives me some mysterious feeling like someone just disappeared in one’s life. But in the end the plot is twisted. It seems possible to make this movie happened. I think I want to be a director for this movie because when I read it, I imagine in my head like which scene is going to be like. Like the scene that Ake’s girlfriend disappeared, everything that his girlfriend gave him like the dolls, flowers or anything just disappeared when he tries to find it. He grabs the key and then he drives to her house and then he sees another building that he does not even recognize at all. Everyone thinks he’s crazy, so he tries to prove that her girlfriend really exists by open the voice notes that her girlfriend once sent him, but when he opens the voice notes, it became empty. The scene will provoke the audience like What? How could she disappear? It will give the enigmatic sense to audience.
Sorry for not mentioning about the vision for the film, so for the vision about the film “The Holy Buddha” could be in a artistic way. In my imagination, the shots for this type of film would mostly be CU shots since I wanted to focus on pure gold colors in creating a Buddha Image. Therefore, I wanted to make sure that every details that are used to create the Buddha Image are carefully captured and every procedure are not overlook. For the treatment, I think that Phunchaya already mentioned it above. :)
Okay, nice try. Pee Paah.
Try posting a shotlist. For example:
1. CU of Praputtachinarat
2. MS of Praputtachinarat
3. LS of Wat Mahatat
4. CU of People worshiping
5. MS of Monks walking into the temple
6. LS of Sunrise
Life in Slum
If there's any under the line position left for me, It would be a great opportunity for me to work in your film production, I have the ability to deal with people in slum and I think that I could make the vision of the film successful and become realistic.
The thing about under-the-line positions is that THEY NEVER RUN OUT. People always need help. The more you help your classmates, the more your classmates will help you.
Like I've been saying in class, find a way to make yourself valuable, and help everybody. When you need help, they will be there for you.
Never Easy
I would like to be a producer of this film because I basically love to communicate with other people. I’m happy to dealing business with new people every day. But the reason that I attend to this story is because the content. Its detail is very interested and challenged. The story talk about sensitive topic which is sex especially on sexual deviation or LGBT. It’s hard for you to put the right man on the right job. You have to choose the best actor who can express the character feeling between conflicts inside his mind. He was confusing with his taste that was opposite from his nature. Meanwhile, he try to pretend like normal guy. He feel anxious about what social thought, if he choose what he really want. I think this will nice if I can work with someone who are interest in something that similar field as me. I can’t wait to work with them now.

Life in the Slums
I want to be a director.
For me I think this story is really interesting. I think that it would be great if I can join and work with you. I think there are many slums in Bangkok. We might be able to find a good place here in BKK, so we don’t have to travel to Kalasin because it quite far away. Since this is documentary piece, I think we can show every angle of Slum and shoot a closeup shot to show the feeling and expression of people who live there.
I really interested to this topic. I would love to be an editor in this documentary film. As Aj. Sam had mentioned before that we cannot find 'a really good muay thai documentary' on youtube. I want to create a wonderful documentary film which everyone can enjoy it. I also have an ability, skills and familiar with editing program. I can picture myself enjoy edit this film. I want to make it happen!
I would like to be the writer of Fading Light. I really enjoy the setting and theme of the story. I am a big fan of the weird futuristic story like Terminator 2, Mad Max, Logan’s Run, and A Clockwork Orange. With me working with the team, I think I can help the team develop a deeper character and a richer story. The story of Fading Light is basically the Romeo and Juliet love story to me, except that Juliet is the evil character here. I like the main idea of two characters sharing each other’s world from two different points of view. As a potential writer of the story, I would keep the main concept of the two characters exchanging their world, and change the part that the female is a member of a caravan of travelling merchant instead of an outlaw scavenger. I believe this could add a deeper story for the female character of how much she has seen and experience the world, rather than a brutal scavenger. She could be portrayed as a little travelling girl who has seen enough of this cruel world.
I am happily looking forward to develop this story with the team with the same interest in this genre of story.
I'm actually a big fan of the twisted ending films, the ending of the story here is really similar to mine (Terminal A and my individual piece) When I worked with the terminal A team as a writer, I had a lot of fun doing it, it feels like all the ideas were literally flowing in my brain. I love how it ends with the imagination's of the other person. I think mindfuck movies are fascinating! like leaving the mysterious puzzles to the audiences, and making them go like Whaaat just happened?! I have a pretty good idea of how I'm going to write, let's say the man doesn't know that his friend is not real so the story could start off with him living his normal life with his friend but at the end we could do the flashback in the same certain shots but this time we will do it without his friends. I think it would be a pretty good idea to make the audience go OOOH! The film Fight Club (1999) and Donnie Darko (2001) would be the best references of the Story of Us. Warning this may contain spoilers, both of this films have something to do with mental illness, hallucination, and plot-twisting. I think it would be a perfect example of the film.
I would like to be a director for this fiction film because Air and I are the one who create this plot of the story. I’m also interested in LGBT or gay issue and I think I could help to bring the best out of this story. To be more specific, I would like to put the stress/pressure that society gives it to A (main character) through the expectation of his family (maybe we should add that his family are Chinese and expect him to have baby.)
As Air mention before the location will take place around campus area. The two main characters have to be very cute when they are together. So, we must find the actors that have good chemistry and also be attractive not by their look but by the role and personality to get the audiences into the film. I would like to create the film that enlightens audiences about LGBT. Let the audiences be more open minded about the issue.
I also would like to be the editor for this documentary. First of all the topic is very interesting. I want to give myself a try to be an editor and serve Ged’s idea. I’m good at communicate and basic Premiere pro so, Ged please give me a chance.

Story
It is a story of a father who has amnesia and schizophrenia after a car crash. He wakes up and finds his son comes running towards him, asking if he is okay. They talk and spend time together while he is recovering. Then the doctor comes and asks about his current conditions to check up on him. The father asks him when can he go back home. The doctor says it depends, it may take a few more weeks or a month. After a while, his friends pay him a visit. They seem to be very worried about his physical and psychological well-being. His friends and his son come to visit him regularly until he is fully recovered and head back home with his son.
The father continue to live a normal life with his son until one day he goes out to celebrate his recovery with his friends after he dropped his son at the school. He then announces to the group that he has to go soon, because today is his son’s birthday and he needs to buy him a present. He then proceed to buy the present and head back home. The father then sing happy birthday, while his son welcome him with a big hug and laugh out with joy. Then the father tells him he has a present for the son. The facial expression of the son becomes emotionless and he just raise his arm to receive the present. The father then drops to present onto the son’s hand, but it falls down on the floor. The father then asks his son why he won’t take his present, then give the present to his son again. It falls down on the floor again. Then in revelation, the son is not actually there. He was dead from the car crash. The father suffers from dementia and has hallucinations of his son and continues to repeat giving the present to him again and again and again and again. The end.
Look on film
This story is a fiction, setting in modern day Thailand. This is a drama/thriller movie. The location of the film will be in a hospital, restaurant, and the main character home. The story will displays a normal life of a father and a son, who just recovers from an accident. We will focus on a relationship between the father and the son as the father recovers from both physical and psychological injury. The story will first shows that the father can recovers because of his son being there for him, but in the end he is stuck in his hallucination loop not knowing that his son is already dead. But deep down he knows and the shock lock him into that state.
Plan of realization
The film will be shot in formal shots. There will be normal timeline and the timeline that reveals the truth at the end. Meaning we will have to shoot the scene when the father spend time with his son twice. One with the son and one without the son. We will include flashback of the accident at the end as well.
I want to be a director of this film.
Positions available
Producer – can manage everything and contact everyone.
Director of Photography – have good vision and picture on how the film would look on screen.
Writer – want a script with a realistic dialogue, because we want to make the film look real to the audience and help the audiences relate with the story.
Editor – need 2 editors, have a good editing skill, know what to cut and what to add. To convey the exact message to the audiences.
I am interested in a producer position for The Last Present. After I read the plot summary and look of the film, I think that this film is posible to make. The plot is quite good, we might need to build a stronger relationship and characters background. Period of time in this film is present time and location is quite simply which I think I can make an arrangement. For the casting, it might took sometime and I have to work together with director and writer as well, I cannot make decision on my own. I would like to be a producer because I could manage overall production, I might not responsible for visual interpretation but I have right to say if I like it or dislike. During production time, I can switch to first assistant director as well to manage timing and shooting schedule.

Most people go through their everyday lives doing what is normal to them without ever really noticing the world around them. Those same people often use various forms of art such as movies and music as a way to escape their lives and relax. Many people don’t notice the art that is all around them. We want them to notice it. Sometimes something is so easily available it becomes taken for granted and then ends up completely unnoticed. We also want them to wake up out of their every day routines to see and take notice of the rich world that exists all around them. This film is our way of doing that.
The film focuses on the various forms of art on display or available to every person in the city of Bangkok, many of these being public art. In the first part of the film we will evaluate four different types of art located throughout the city. First we will discuss public art done by the government such as statues and monuments, next will be cultural forms of art such as shrines or temples. After that we will look at art in conventional galleries, and finally unconventional art such as graffiti. Some of the locations we will shoot at are Victory Monument, MOCA, and the Chao Mae Tumptim shrine. We will analyze these forms of art according to many factors such as style, forms of delivery, and intended purposes. The second part of the film will include a critique of the overall impressions, effectiveness, and impact of each. We will use interviews with average people at each location to get an idea how these are all viewed and experienced by the public that sees them every day.
Because the focus of this piece is art I want this to be a visually appealing film. Wide shots showcasing and focusing on the art, lots of stationary shots to keep the film feeling “grounded” as ooposed to busy and fast moving. This style will also hopefully mimick the way art is often viewed for effect in a gallery or other display venue. A few time lapse shots will also be included to contrast the art with the busy world that moves so fast around them.
Authoritative Source – do not currently have, would like an official from a gallery or professor of art from Thammasat

I really interested in Fading light plot which is my group work. At the first time that I worked with friends and edited the plot together in the class. I felt I like this story. When I read the story again and again, I imagine in every words of the plot of the story. For example, I imagine about the Vault which is the home of main character will be look like and and the place that will be used in the scenes. I can visualize the order of each scene in my head including the environment in the movie. In the last culminating ending, The picture in my head is more clear. I imagine even the acting and the scene of the girl kill the boy in the Vault. I know if this story have a chance to make to be a real movie, this movie will be a good one. But it is not easy to make it perfect because in my head the environment in eqch scenes have to be real and perfect as possible like a hollywood movie.
From the reason that I give above, I want to be a director and make the movie in the best I can to make audiences enjoy with the story.
Editor - I would like to be the editor of The Last Present, because I really like the mood and tone of the story. I think I could edit the film exactly the way its message needs to be perceived. I am also quite skillful with sounds editing and basic music composing and I would love to use them to help the flim establish the feeling it needs to send out.
THE LAST PRESENT
Dear Mr. Chayangkul,
After I'm done reading your ideas about this fiction story, I found that it really interests me. I would be very excited and giving my best effort if I have the chance to be the director of this fiction story. As honestly, I'm a person who has a cinematic mind, and hopes to make this fiction story into a really powerful short film. From reading through I could see each scenes in my mind, and in addition the angles of this film is really important, inserting over the shoulder shot, long, medium, and close up shots. The shots is important because this fiction has a plot twisted, which could turn a happy life of a man into drama. I'm sure if we work together, we could develop a better plot and make this fiction stronger.
As you said that yourself wanted to be a director, if you don't mind I could be your assistant director or from the positions avaliable that you've posted, I think I'm also capable of being the Director of Photography as I have mind of a director and a basic skills of camera usage.
*This has nothing to do with Shattered Glass with Hayden Christensen*
Story: This story will be about a university student who is fighting heavy depression due to the death of his girlfriend. A guy travels to his dead girlfriend’s cemetery. As he goes there every significant location he passes will bring a flashback reminding of the time he and his girlfriend spent at that location.
Look of the film: Most of the story will be muted and there will be voiceover narratives and sometimes background music. The background music will be significant because the lyrics of the songs will illustrate the main character’s feelings (but it’s not a musical). There will be many scenes involving flashbacks and the present.
A depressed student is walking by himself. Narrating “Many people have asked me why I’m always so quiet, barely socializing with anyone? Why do I never smile and always seem so sad?” The truth is I’ve always been shy and quiet, until I met this one person who completely changed my life.
*Flashback*
Main character meets his girlfriend and they immediately connect well with each other. As they get closer he becomes more outgoing. Their friendship soon turns into a loving relationship and they continue to bond deeper and deeper. During this scene there will be several cuts of the couple spending time together (details will be worked out later). Until one day *car crash sound*
Switching scenes to a hospital, where our main character is waiting anxiously to see how his girlfriend is doing. A doctor comes out and sadly shakes his head. Infuriated, he starts punching the wall until his knuckles bleed, as a friend tries to stop him he shrugs them off and runs away in tears.
*Present Day*
Coming out of the flash back, our character is sitting in class, clearly not paying attention. The professor dismisses class and he walks out. As he is walking several groups of friends invite him to hang out with them but he declines them all.
He heads out to a cemetery. As he is traveling there will be a sequence of flashbacks and present time, showing how he was once happy with her at one place in the past, but in the same location at present time he is feeling the complete opposite (details to be worked out later).
The Final scene will end with the main character sitting down hugging his knees at his girlfriend’s grave and crying. The film will end with a quote saying “Our hearts are like glass, dropped once, broken forever, and even if the pieces finally get put back together, it will never ever be the same again.”
I will be directing this film so I will need:
Editor: This film will depend a lot on the music coinciding with the video in order to bring out the strong emotion I’m depicting so the editor needs to know how to put music in at the right time. But I will be guiding him/her through the process.
Writer: As I have written above, there are still a lot of details that need to be worked out, mainly with the flashback scenes the writer will work with me trying to work out these details.
Producer: Finding locations to shoot and coordinating for any permission slips needed. Especially with the grave scene because I don’t think there are that many cemeteries in Thailand usually they burn the body into ashes, and even if there is one it is highly unlikely that someone will let us use their loved one’s graves for filming.
I'm open to having more than one of any of the above as long as everyone makes a contribution and can work in sync with one another.

Personally, I like the plot of the Fading Light, especially in the end that the girl killed the boy after he helped her get into the vault. I also like this kind of film that plot twisted at the end. So I would like to be an editor for this piece of work because I feel that we are on the same page, and I also think that the outcome would be great if it possible to work with this team.
I also interested in the topic of Muay Thai Warrior because I have an interested in sports and I used to exercise at Muay Thai gym near my place, so this topic also grab my attention to work with them as well.
I really interested in doing this kind of film and I also want to be a part of a team as an editor. My style might be different from the mood and tone of this story, but I think I can make this a great film. Regardless of that, I hope I could help with timing as I think I am good at, and edit a good visual. The plot, the mood and tone of this story is very good and I want this film to be make. I hope I am given a chance to join this team as well.
Story:
A non-fiction story about “Hipster”, a minimalist who enjoys going to cafés, who have passion for minimalism that lives in Bangkok. This person is a natural seeker who always find beautiful places to go and take pictures of those particular places and very conservative. In addition, Hipster is a very independent person he/she doesn’t follow the mass trends. Mostly, the camera that Hipster uses will be film camera. The hipster trends become very popular in Thailand and we want to reflect today’s society through this short film. Now, there are many people who follow hipster trends and want to be one and Hipsters it’s one of the hot topics on various social medias. The content of the story focuses the daily basis of Hipster, which is very new among Thai society, and the film about hipster is rarely found in Thailand. Therefore, we would like to make this short film to inform and have more understanding on what Hipster does.
Plan of realization:
- Authoritative source: Nawapol Thamrongrattanarit, director of Marry is Happy, a famous Thai indie film and a hipster trendsetter
- Team:
Producer - Karnthida S. #0083
Director - Pathita M. #0380
Editor - Ploypunsa N. #0463
Writer – Ekkawat S. #0869
We are looking for…

Character: 1 main character and probably his or her friends
Equipment: Canon 6d + 24-70mm f2.8/ Tripod/ 2 SD Cards / 2 Batteries / Laptop / All the chargers / Smartphones / Boom microphone / Lights
From what we have observed, Hipsters will go to these following places:
Location: Cafes in Thonglor, Ekkamai, and Aree, National Parks, Gallery, Museum
For the look of this film, we decided to use low saturation color tone to immitate how Hipsters take their photos. Our references will be from Kinfolk, and Cereal magazine, and pictures from Hipsters’ Instagram. A lot of jump cut will be used to create montage in order to make this film looks like independent film. The shot will be mostly handheld and steadycam because we need to follow our main character into many places.
I would like to The Life of a Pregnant Teen. I want to be the director of this film. I think it's interesting story to do because I have a chance to visited Slum twice. I feels really pity for them. I think going to Kalasin is a good chance because it's a new place for me. I think there might be something interesting for the film.

The Story of Us
I wanted to be the producer of ‘The story of us’ because I find the storyline very interesting and I do love fictional story. I feel like I have some connection with the mental illnesses even though I didn’t possess the illness but I do understand how it feels and when someone tries to hide their symptoms. I can relate my life to the story so it really does capture my interest.
Last summer, I went on an internship at Wink Wink Production for three months with Casting Director who guides me through the process of finding actors/actresses. So I have a connection to find actors. I also got the chance to follow what the Producer does when there are work to do, by watching the producer do her job for three months I do understand how the things work and how hard it is to follow up everything that is around just to make everything settle in time for the shooting. It is a tough job because you need to contact everyone and prepare everything. I think I do have the potential to be a producer since I love to contact people, make an arrangement, and I have already got an idea how things work from my internship last year.
To be honest, I have a deep passion on Thai Fashion and I have in-depth information on this topic and I can relate myself to your story which makes me a great writer to add more flavor to your story by using my creativity and experiences. But if you don't think I can't be your writer, which is quite impossible, I could be your make-up artist and stylist. As I told you, I have a passion and I have a good taste on fashion and good skill on make-up. It would be a great opportunity for me to work for you. :)
I would like to be a camera operator for this film because I really like the story ideas and also mood and tone. I know how to operate DSLR camera, know how to compose a given shot or scene, and I also own one myself. Even I'm a woman, but I have no trouble with carry a heavy camera along with the tripod because I always carry it with me. I would be very happy if I get to work with you Eddie :)

So far, overall, the website is functioning properly.
Keep posting, but keep it professional.
If you didn't make the DEADLINE, don't worry about it. Worry about your above-the-line position. And post when you are ready. Think before posting. Remember EVERYONE will be able to see it and the goal is to work hard, not find somebody to do it for you.
Keep forming productive teams.

Muay Thai Warrior
After I read the the treatment Muay Thai Warrior, I think that this is a very interesting story because I have experience in watching Muay Thai and I also have experience in learning boxing. I think that I could present my perspective by be a camera man in this film. I think that the story could be told through my lens.
Fading Light
Im interested in being part of this film as a producer, I really like the idea of the film that is set in the future. I also like the idea of the main female characther doind unexpexted things, that leads into unexpected ending for the viewers. As a producer, I will be able to contribute to this film. I can manage the overall process of the work, I also can help in the cinematography part as I have a little bit skills with camera.
Restart
Restart also interested me, but as it seems like all above the line for this film is full, I could be a co-producer if you guys want me to.
Fading Light :
I would like to join the team as a writer because i'm a huge fan of science-fiction and I've work with some of the crew in this team before. I feel the film needs a bit more of a thiriller feel and I would hope to be able to create that film and try to help visualize it when filming.

After I read a story, I want to be a Director of Photography on this film. I think this film need to focus on picture, because the plot is just shadowing the hipster. The important is the film need to show the beauty of what the hispter see and seek. This film need a good vision to let the audiences feel the same way as the hipster do. I have the pictures in my mind and look forward to sell them to the director. Hope I can work with you guys. :)
The Hipster Handbook:
Adter much more consideration I would like to work more on this project than the fading light, as i feel that this film has more potential to succeed and if done right it can tell a very artistic style of filming which we will hopefully be able to achieve. I would like to work as a co-producer on this project and get a chance to work with new people who will be putting their own style to help each other succeed in doing this film.

The Last Present :
I'm sorry what the post before this i've mistaken the title of the film for technical error. Nevertheless, The Last present is the film i want to work on as reason i've explained above and also because its drama/thriller which i'm very excited to be taking on this genres as a co-producer on this film.
The Last Present
I had a conversation with the group members of this film after we were told that we had to create our own groups. One of the members recommended that I should be their writer. I actually wrote another story which is being used by others now but I feel that I can help the group improve 'The Last Present' to become the best it can be.
The treatment is mentioned above by Phunchaya.
Sorry that I did not make it clear about the places and my vision towards the film. I wanted the film to show more on the hardship of the maker and to why the statue of the buddha is so expensive that there is a robbery in certain old temples for the head of the buddha... I want the film to express to the WHY certain people loves to own many many buddha statues and ready to pay enough sum to own one... I also want to ask how people observe the quality of the buddha.. which one worths million and which one worths thousand..
I want footage from various temples as well as from a guy who hangs so many buddha around his neck.. I want to get footage from the Tah-pra-chan street where they trade buddha statue, Phayuha Kiri at Nakon Sawan and sao-ching-cha in Bangkok

Since the restraunt is very famous among students, students (audience) must know how their foods are delivered. The film will show the restaurant's effors and successes as much as its strugglings. The film also will show the art of cooking Haral foods.
However, we need more below the line position people in order to successfully creat this non-fiction film. We need at least four more people who can work with this team. If you want the positions, contact one of the above the line people ASAP.

Our first draft video is just a survey to collect footages of cock fighting as much as we can. So, there is not enough useable interview and explanation, which make audience won't understand what is going on while they watch. Our next plan to set up proper interview and collect a better quality sound bite.
We want to show more connection between the trainer and the rooster.

Im a director to this piece.
I want to merge the process of making Buddha statue with why is it popular for people like foreigners to buy the stolen Buddha’s head statue. And this is how I interpret the written piece into visual aspect:
With human elements, people have their own religion to lean on when they have nothing else to. They need comfort at heart, they want to see miracles and they have faith to make merit and visit temples. - Here I need interviews with the locals to why they think religious is important?
We talked to one Buddhist who has deep knowledge of the issue as a research, he said the main reason to why people often chop off the head is because it is the richest part of gold due to the fact that, while the maker is making the statue they rotate the statue upside-down and do the tip of the head separately.
I also want to refer to some events that had happened in the past first.. this will the the footage of Buddha statue with no heads - fast forward as if it is a still pictures etc. Then everything will follow by the process documentary to show the valuable part of the Buddha statue being make.
I also will be needing some voicers for voice over over the documentary and the producer will do the casting or the testing of the voice for our team. I want the piece to have high vignette and high depth of field for interviewing scenes. I might need to use a drone in order to get high angle shot when the workers are filling the statue with melted gold. The budget will be handle by the producer again.
The fast forward shots of the history events will be put to black and white or more nostalgic feeling. I want to get close up shot of the heat, the sweat of people, the face and the mouth praying too. The sound must sound must make the audience feel goosebumps and mysterious. I want to end the movie by urging people to think more about the piece like raising question to their minds whether ‘religion is a type of your culture?’
I want my starting and ending to give out the sense of mystery so that those who DONT believe in religion feel even more funny and hilarious and think of it as a silly act, while those who DO believe in this spiritual thing will feel sad that somebody even tried to steal the beautiful Buddha’s head from its base literally from the temple. With this, I need smoke shots from incense sticks, mouth saying prayers, and other thing. The interview must be one of the thing I want to tell audience that the piece is a documentary. I want the source saying to the left side and the rule of third apply here, the person too will be at the left. High depth here, I want everything blur at the background unless it serve some purpose or long shots.
I will update on my first shooting with pictures and small clips soon.
In front of the elevator, Rick is having a confrontation with his girlfriend, Ellin. Rick, a desperate for love guy after he just broke up with Ellin. He is wishing to find a real one, a new love as he travels through floors. (Floors represent years or time passed in his life) He makes friend with new people as he travels through floors. But sometimes he fails and sometimes cheats on the others! The instability of love between him and the new people he met. Some woman can't stand him and decided to take a departure from his life. But some needed to explore him more but unfortunately there's no time left to learn him.
The opportunity doesn't usually get along with his wish, it just simply doesn’t favour him. It's himself and his new girls that obstructs him to find his real love by unintentionally disrupt him from getting a new girlfriend.
The love searching for Rick doesn't looks right. Women left him for several reasons. Jess couldn't stand having Christie as one of the new peripheral of Rick. Rick wants to hold Jess to stay with him longer, but he failed. Jess slapped him in the face and leave him to Christie. Christie left him because of her need for a better-looking and richer guy. Rick decided to meet new people along the way. Christie wanted to leave him because she bored him already.
Eventually, Rick is one floor before he will reach the last floor. He really needs to do something to get one before it's too late. He is finally going to work something out with Diana to finish his adventure beautifully. Unfortunately, Diana doesn't have time left for Ricky to study him. She better leave to her guy that she already known for long. There's nothing left for Rick. He have to be alone even if he met so many people. His chances are just over since the the door to the last floor is open and Diana left him. He gave up everything and decided that he will never believe in real love again. It seems like the door will be forever closed and he will never meet anyone again.
Eventually, the doors that is about to close is opened again by someone blocking it. It's Ellin who used her hands to block the door after running through steps to catch Ricky as he go up to different floors. Rick never think that Ellin, who seems to be getting so enough of him, will follow him up there to meet him again. Ricky finally realised that there's no one else by Ellin that he can rest his whole heart on. They hugged each other with tears of joy and regretfulness for what they've done that suffered them so much. They rotate back to each other again, and will never leave.
They are now more understanding and caring for each other than ever before. Rick stops being picky and hot-tempered to Ellin. While Ellin is not going to push Rick away anymore. They decided that they will be the best match for themselves, forever.
I watched this clip from Facebook and I tried my best for finding it in youtube but this clip doesn't exists in youtube so here is a link to Facebook. Video from Facebook can't normally share in this format.
This story name "Ghost tits" which plot of the story is very similar to our film so I used this one to be my reference. This story is about one day when the main character wake up and he just found that the boobs of his wife just gone without any reason.
Now we at the pre-production process and going to being shooting in a next few weeks, I am working on scouting the location that the producer introduce to me.,fixing the story which some point of the plot doesnt make any sense and prepare for writing a story board. I want it to be some kind of myterious film, I trying to watched film and short film about this genre as much as I can.
And here is the video that I used, to adapt and fit with my documentary. Mostly about sequence and high depth during an interview.
Please post the title of your film :(
Please come up with a better title
We will use handheld camera because what we do is taking a live shots. The team have to move very fast and impromptu. Most of the time we have to run from place to place, for example, the main character's room and her mother's house which located inside the slum.
For the production, we will use two camera operaters (both handheld) to catch all the live footages as much as possible. One will focus on a location and another will focus on a main characters.
We will not use a lot of light beause we want to creat a timid tone, which is not too bright. Most of the shots will be taking inside the main character's house and as well as outside her house when we need more light and to create a variety of shot. When we shoot inside the house, which is too dark and full of dust, we will use an alternative light to make it abit lighter. As inside the house, a space is limited; that is why handheld camera is suited more.
You need to get help with the cinematography as shooting this way will lead to poor quality footage. Always bring a tripod. There will be times when you can use it. Always be thinking about light and how you are going to get a proper exposure, even if you aren't bringing lights. How do you see the final look of the film? It would be a shame to ruin content this good with poor camera work.
We plans to do a lot of close up shots when we interview Nong Nam ( to see her expression and emotion) and when she tells her life story, middle shot for an action. Furthermore, we will also use a long shot for establishing the scenes of the slum and Nam's house.
As a director, I will try to bring out the element of how liives in the slum situation leads to teenage pregnancy problem. Also the point that her teacher seal the fact that women who get pregnent should not be in the school. Is it true ? Is it considered as an injustice? This documentary will answer it all.
There are some questions I would like to add apart from the set of questions from Shernez:
Do you think the lack of education could leads to teenage pregnancy ?
How much do you think family play in a big part in one's life?
Once a woman is pragnent should she stop going to school?
If you can make one regulation or law to help a teen pregnancy what it would be?
I have both Above the line and Below the line position.
Below the line position for; Restrat film- Lighting director
The Love Storeys- DP
Please, Mr. Postman- Costume
(For all Below-the-line positions I not start it yet, just wait for the friends in each porduction to organize their story to be ready before and then order me to do what ever they want. Moreover, I think because 3 stories are fiction film so to prepare the film in writting part is more important and take time. May be next week they will tell me what I should do and how can I help them. For the another group I'm not sure about my position yet but I already ask them to give me some work that I can help them as well.)
Above the line position for; Teen pregnancy in Slum -Producer
Last week, I go to Klongtoey Slum where it located near the rail way and expressway. I arrived there with my director named Kat and we survey this location together in the morning until we meet the young pregnancy named Num(น้ำ) who is 18-year-old girl living with her boyfriend in this slum. I ased the local people about the pregnancy in this community and they said that in this slum there are two pregnancy live here. I plan to contact with Num at first because she can be a great Authoritative Source for our group as well. But the obstacles are she is 9-month-pregnancy right now and we worried that she will give birth before we complete our production. So, I plan to find the second Authoritative Source for a second plan. Last time, I tried to meet the cheif of this community(ผู้ใหญ่บ้าน), but he just left before we arrived a few minutes. I think he may know his community better than the others,he will have a better connection among the people in this village, he will give a good advise for us and help us work easier.
So, for the next visit on Monday 16, March, I plan to arrive there earier. I plan to meet the chief of slum for talking with him and asking for any connection to help me find the second Authoritative Source. Morover, I plan to interview him about himself and this community as well. I wish I will find lts of useful information for making the Teen pregnancy in Slum film.
(this is image of Nong Num and her mother)
(This is Nam's House.)
For the location, I discoverd that this community has an air pollution from the dust of the expressway fallen to the slums below. I also discoverd that even the government provide the mini-fitness gym for the people in this community but every gyms play are broken because people still lack of knowledge to use and some of them are work very heavy until it broke. The people said that facilities from governments is very bad. The government give them not enough money for fixing the broken one and also the other facilities for their village as well. For the next time I visit, I plan to survey the closer area of this slum and find more interesting location for the film.
(This is the entrance way to the slum where you can see both expressway over your head and the rail way.)
(There are lots of house in both right-hand-side and left-hand-side of the rail way which is very close to each other house.)
(I saw many children live near here and I think about the other possible place nearby for shooting the film where the children can enjoy and play together. I wish I can find some place such as playground for the other visit.)
And this is what I have got so far...
Thank you,

*The name of the story's "Storeys" is written in British English to represent the actual meaning of the word, which is the floors of a building. Meanwhile, the word can still be related to the "Story," which the sequence of events.*
Setting:
Almost all of the scenes will be shot in an elevator. We will nearly only see the characters and what is inside the elevator. Also, some scenes might include the area just outside the elevator to see who is outside the elevator.
Character:
The main character is a male named Rick. He is an Asian with an eyes-catching or charismatic appearance. He is representing an ordinary man in real life. (What I need is a guy that has the ability to communicate his feelings.) He has an argument with his girlfriend, they he broke up. Later on, he will meet a various kinds of girls, in which some of them might be cheating on him, while some might not be able to continue her relationship with him.
The supportive character name is Ellyn, she is a cute girl. She does have that innocent looking when she is in her normal mood. But she also does have the strong will. She have that bravery to help her love when he is in the desperate moment even she have to wait for him of so long. It’s just because she gives all of her just to make sure that Rick is happy.
The story:
Rick and Ellyn is a couple. They are having an argument out of of a tiny thing, but it grows larger to the extent that they decided to break up. Rick decided to find his new love as he get into the elevator and travel through floors, which represent the checkpoints in his life span that new people are coming into his life or some people leave his life. He will meet several types of people along the way. Some are cheated by him, or some cheated on him. It’s a very tragic life being apart from a person that really matches him like Ellyn. She is the only one that understands him inside out and able to take are of him to be happy and warm. But they just broke up, so he need to live his life alone or with the other person. At the very last floor, an another girl left him and he is now having no chance left since it’s hiss last floor. He could neither go up or down to the past. That’s where he have a breakdown and Ellyn appears to help him from the dark.
Look of the film:
There will be some shadows used to enhance the feeling of the characters. Also, the light will be a little bit more realistic than ordinary movie to implicate the reality of life. The tone will be a little bit tinted with blue to represent coldness and loneliness. But in the end the tone might be instead tinted with the yellow tone to represent warmth that Rick got fro Ellyn.
Plan of realisation:
We will need one writer, a good writer because of the hardness of writing a screenplay for scenes that are shot in the elevator alone. The main character will not move out of the elevator, so it’s very important to have that talent in writing to keep the audiences away form boredom.
We need a producer to provide a place for us. It’s very important that the shootings must be able to continue and done. Also, all the equipments such as big light and smaller ones, and the microphone is available for us to use.
We need a good editor to enhance the emotions to the screen. Also, we need the editor to help us in editing all the footages. The editor will enhance mood and better understanding of the film.
We need two cameramen since we need to do the film fast. The footages might be shot from different persons in order to get as many shots as possible in the allot time. The elevators are not going to be available for us to use all the times.
We need one DP to have the control over the imageries in the film.
The final product will be look like this. I Planned to use live footages and assembled with the interview which our main character will be the one who narrated the story. Since some of the footages cannot be shot like the shool shot when she have to go to school (now the semester is ended) but we will follow her twin instead as she is the one who will go get the certificate for her.
This documentary will be focus on difficulties of a teen pregnancy girl who lived in slum and I will bring out all the element that she had to face the an injustice. our group will follow her to see all her activities. So basiclly this documentary will show all aspect of her life during her pregnancy and ofcourse the difficulties of her life. Since at first I planned to use handheld camera but you said we better use a tripod I will try for a better camera footage. The live shot will be hard to use the tripod but for the interview we will absolutely use it.
The light for an indoor shot, what we need is key light and lim right the key might be put quite low so the image wont be too bright as I want to make this documetary a dim look and fill light to bring the subject out of the background. For and outdoor shot will adjust the iso in the camera to match the look for the film. The outdoor shot can look bright but to contrast with life in her house we will make in dim for an indoor shot. As we got two camera operters one of them will focus on the director point of view shot and another one will focus from the back like when she walk, talk, over the shoulder shot and also the establishing shot of each scene. Also the back shot and the front shot will make it more effective when editing to create a variety .
The Golden Buddha
So today our film crew went to สถานปฏิบัติธรรมนราภิรมย์ (The Dharma Program) which took place at Amphoe Bang Len, Nakhon Pathom. As a producer in this film, I have contacted the organizer and they told us that which place will be creating a Buddha Image, because creating one Buddha Image doesn’t come frequently so we must make sure that we found a place.
In this program hundreds of people gathered together to be a part of this precious Buddha Image. For the location, which they will be making the Buddha Image. We left at Bangkok around 5:50AM and arrived there before time, so we could take some footage of program and make use of the location so that we know where to go and what to do. Eventually, the weather wasn't so pleasant, it was very hot. Because they have to melt down gold blocks in order to filled the mold. Everything happened very fast but we were able to capture some good footage.
Also, I had a chance to contact and make an interview from expert about Buddhism, which he is our great authoritative source for this topic. We asked about the general information of Buddha Image and etc. I have contacted another place to film more about the creating Buddha Image but there are no confirmations yet.
That is excellent news, Arnold, congrats! As producer, it would be a very good idea to have the editor put some of the best footage down on the timeline and be prepared to show in class Thurday. This makes your group top of the class.
Suratsawadee Youngpattana 5507640810 (Ged)
I’m the writer of this documentary film. And from the previous treatment that I have posted, I’ve got a good team to produce this documentary. The director of this film is Ice Budsarin, who has been doing a great work of thinking visual aspects for this documentary. By doing some research with the producer and interviewed certain bodybuilder about what important and interest about this topic, I found out that one of the most essential matters is the “motivation” of becoming bodybuilder.
Each bodybuilder might has similar aim which is to have a strong and beautiful musculature, but what different and interesting about them is their motivational story. They are not only transforming their body into a better and healthier feature but their life have also changed. For example, people around them have changed their perspective; obviously, they feel more attractive and sparkling toward them. Essentially, they benefited from their body’s transformation by being able to participate in a bodybuilding contest which is one of the bodybuilder’s accomplishments.
With this interesting and motivational aspect about bodybuilding, I am aiming to display particular life of a bodybuilder who has an interesting and motivational story—as well as his amazing transformation. Luckily, my producer, Air Pornvipa, has contacted a bodybuilder who has a very captivating story. He is an engineer in one of the well-known telecommunication company, which his work’s shift is to work 12 hour per day, from Monday until Thursday. His shift was also varied, depend on the scheduled that he was assigned.
However, this never thwarted his intention of being a bodybuilder and his daily training. No matter how late his work end, he always being punctual for his training. He trained by himself with his own research and advises from his friends. Even though he has just started his bodybuilding for a couple of years, but he has devoted all of these year in transforming his body and find the best training routines for himself. Interesting fact, he also has his twin brother who is also a bodybuilder. Both of them have been participated in various bodybuilding contests. Meanwhile, he will be participating in “Mr. Thailand 2015”, which it is one of the most well-known bodybuilding contests that will be held on the coming April.
Therefore, I want to bring out his motivational story in order to make this film as an “inspiring documentary”. I want his story to motivate and show the audience that it is possible to succeed in transforming his or her body, to have a healthier life, and most of all to tell them that there is nothing impossible—if they don’t give up. In addition, the film will be comprises with both interviewing and shadowing him. Some of the prominent contents that will be including are: what motivated him to be a bodybuilder, how his transformation changed his life, and what are his routines and preparations for the upcoming contest.

I’m a producer for this piece. I already contacted the authority source which is Miss Waraporn Kunawrisdech (วราพร คุณาวริสเดช) / The owner of "The Star & The Moon" The source already gave a permission to shoot, we are going to film her this Monday, 16 since 5 am at the JC canteen to see where she cook and how she cook the meal after that we will interview her and follow her to Macro and Talad Thai to see where she buy all the ingredient. I already ask the permission to film at Macro and Talad Thai. I hope that everything will come out smoothly this Monday!
Miss Waraporn is not the authoritative source, she is simply the subject or interviewee. A true authoritative source would be an Imam or religious leader who could give some insight on 1) how Halal food is prepared and why it's important, 2) what life is like for a Muslim in a Budhhist society. Another example of an authoritative source could be a government official with some statistics on the issue, a community leader, and so forth.
I’m also a producer for this piece too. We are in the process of discussion where are we going to film and who will be our authoritative source. I will be starting with this film soon after done with the other one.
Some production for the fiction film also contacted me to be an actress for the film but I don’t have any detail about it yet.

Lin felt weird that he acted this way, but that doesn't mean she didn't like it. Guy saw the same couple. He walked to the girl and gave her the rose. He said that the guy who fought with her ask to send it to her. The girl ran to the guy and said apologize. That couple was reconciling. What Guy did made Lin very impressed. Then before Lin went home, Guy tried to delay the time. He held Lin tightly and confessed that he cheated on her. He immediately ran to the road and knelt down. Lin was shocked and afraid that the he will get in the accident. He shouted at Lin not to come near him. He didn't beg for forgiveness. He asked Lin to scold him and punches him in the face.

I cheated on you!
(He shouts back)
LIN
(Pauses)
I knew it for a while.
GUY
Why you still being nice to me?
LIN
Because I love you, that’s why!
Just fucking moves your legs and get here!
Guy
Will you forgive me?
LIN
As long as you treat me like you used to do.
I definitely will forgive you.
GUY (V.O.)
I finally just realize how A**hole I was.
How can a man treat a girl like that?
I’m a fool. I’m a jerk.
I don’t deserve her.
Guy is going to get back to Lin but suddenly he hears the honk of horn.

Get off of my way, asshole!
DISSOLVE TO:

When I first come out of this topic, I want to portray the beauty of the Buddha image. I notice that most of Thai people are Buddhist and Buddha statue is one of the most respected objects to Buddhist. But how many people really know the process of making them? Every statue has its own story and I think that it is very interesting.
As a writer, I did lots of research about the religion to get more ideas, especially about the process of making Buddha image.
This website tell us the main steps of casting a Buddha statue and it's easy to understand:
http://www.buddhanet.net/e-learning/history/buddhist-art/image02.htm
We did have our first shooting at The Dharma Program in Nakhon Pathom. It was a fun experience seeing it at a very close distance. Not only that, me and the team also talked with our authoritative source. He is a Buddhist guy who have lots of experience on the process of making Buddha. He explain to us how the Buddha image are made and why they were so precious.
I want the documentary to move in a slow pace because Buddhism is all about the right way of living
I really look forward into sharing this new experience with everyone.

I'm an editor for this piece.
Our first draft video is just a survey to collect footages of cock fighting as much as we can. So, there is not enough useable interview and explanation, which make audience won't understand what is going on while they watch.Our next plan to set up proper interview and collect a better quality sound bite.
We want to show more connection between the trainer and the rooster.

This piece was originally made as my homework assignment. Then together with my friends, we develped it and made it clearer. I didn't think that it would come this far. I'm glad that this piece will be made. Thai boxing is regarded as a prestigious national sport, so the meaning and values should be know by all Thai citizens.
Nowadays, Muay Thai, called Thai Boxing by foreigners, is our national sport and is now getting more popular in many countries. Thai Boxing is a combat sport that uses standup striking along with various clinching techniques.
The editor in my found one vdo that I really like the look of it and I think I want to use it as a reference. I dont know how to explian so I think it's better for me to post the link here so check it out.

I'm a writer for this piece. The forgotten hero is the non-fiction (documentary) film. We want to let audience experience how sacrifice of our brave worriers serving the country and the side effect after war. PTSD or Post-traumatic stress disorder is a mental health condition that’s triggered by a terrifying event – either experiencing it or witnessing it. This may lead to flashbacks, nightmares and uncontrollable thought about the event. We would love to make it as a film to against/protest WAR.
Our group is very effective. We have gone to interview Mr……………… He was captured as a prisoner of war for 10 years in Vietnam. He gave us lot of information such as how he became a prisoner, how they torture him, and how he got away with it. We also interview his wife about the life without husband for 10 years.
Right now, we contacted military camp at R.1 (ร.๑) to get footage while soldier operation and the veteran hospital to ask doctor about how to deal with this PTSD. I’m aiming to interview the soldier who has been in the front line from both Korea and Vietnam war if it possible (I mean if they’re still alive and available for interviewing) I want to show the worst side of war to make people get the idea of “Make Love Not War”.

Ps. I miss spell of my authoritative source name, sorry.
by Yosawadee N.
In this project, I am a producer. I have contacted all of the authority sources such as trainers and policeman who brings us to the fighting field. I need to manage the schedule of shooting because the cockfighting field isn't opened every week. It opens only on Saturday and only every other week, so we have less time to shoot our film. I also have to provide the accommodation for the members because our location is at Chonburi province. I wanted to make everyone in the team feel convenient and relaxed to work, so I have tried afford everything they need to them. At fist, I would like to create the documentary which presents the amazement of figthing cocks. I would like to present it as one of the sports but the members think that it is not strong and interesting enough, so we discuss and agree to make the documentary in an aspect of the relationship between the trainer of fightingcocks and the rooseters themselves.
I’m a producer for this project. I already contacted Mr. Nawapob Boonmak or P’Jay as our main authoritative source. He is currently engineer for True Corporation who has a passion for bodybuilding. He is still the beginner but he has a lot of attempt to build up his body, even though he finish his work very late, he still has to do exercise regularly. Tomorrow (Monday) our team will go to talk with P’Jay face-to-face for the first time.
I also sent the permission letter to Thailand Bodybuilding and Physique Sports Association asking to enter the Bobybuilding contest called ‘Mr. Thailand’ on 17-19 April at Seacon Bangkae but still waiting for their answer.
Apart from P’Jay and participants at Mr. Thailand, we also keep other authoritative sources including the Thai-Japan Bangkok Youth Center and MuscleTech Thailand, which are two gyms that won the first and second place from Mr. Thailand 2014

I would be the editor of this project. I would like to make this film to look like a music video but its content will be much deeper than the ordinary music video. However, we haven't got the final decision about the film yet because resently we have realized that whether we should make it in the form of documentary or not. But if we need to make it as the documentary, we would like to get the sources who used to face the interesting or dramatic experience because the audience may be interested more if the story is drama. On the other hand, even though I want the story to be drama, I still want it to give something back to the audience, for example, when parents cannot accept what a son is, what should he do?
This is an example of the style that I would like to edit if it is the fiction

Please, Mister Postman
I am the writer for this film.
My individual progress for this film is that I revised the treatment, make the characters' personality and identity more tangible, and answer the Premise, Major dramatic question, Main character goal/ objective, Main character obstacle, and Main character transformation. With these being filled out, it will help me with my screenplay better. So, now I'm still in the process of writing the screenplay and will get it done before the next class.
Charaters:
Mhee- A postman who falls in love with Bua as they share their interest about the Beattles. He is a caring boy who wants to see Bua being happy no matter what.
Bua- A kind and sensitive girl who is attached to her first love very much. Even though she has to move to a different town, she still wants to remain their relationship by always writting letters to him.
Sorn- an unstable guy who just falls in love so easily with someone who is close to him. He is a guy who gets bored easily and doesn't care much about Bua when they are apart.
Treatment (Revised)
Please, Mister Postman is a romantic film revolves around the story of a young postman falling in love with a girl in his neighborhood. Set in the 1960s, countryside of Thailand. The film will focus on the love story of a young couple using mail as a mean of building their relationship.
In the first act of Please, Mister Postman, the film will begin with the narration of an old man named Mhee, reminiscing his childhood sweetheart, when he was a teenage postman living his regular teenage boy life, till the day Bua moves into the town. Mhee falls for Bua, and is always enthusiast to stop by and deliver mails at Bua’s house. The two start to build their friendship through sharing the same interest in the The Beattles music.
In the second act, the two become closer and start to build their friendship as time passes by. Mhee and Bua has become friends and started sharing stories about their lives. Even though Mhee knows that Bua is always waiting for the letter from her boyfriend, Sorn, living somewhere far away, he still falls for Bua. Mhee keeps his feelings inside and could not do anything about it. Until one day, the letters from Bua’s boyfriend stop coming. From a cheerful young girl, Bua become depressed. The story escalates when the first letter from Sorn comes to the post office after many weeks pass by; Mhee decides to secretly read the letter and finds out that it’s a breakup letter from Sorn to Bua. He could not stand seeing his crush heartbroken, so he pretends to be Sorn and write the letter to be Bua as usual. After receiving the fake letters from Mhee (who pretends to be Sorn), Bua becomes lively again.
In the third act, Bua goes out to the market and accidentally meets Sorn. She is very happy to see him, so she goes up to him and asks why he doesn’t tell her that he comes to this town. Sorn is confused because Bua doesn’t seem to know that they have already broken up, so he asked her whether she has received his last letter or not. Bua now knows that Sorn is not the one writing to her anymore. The next day Mhee come to send the letter to Bua as usual without knowing that Bua has already found out the truth. Bua is very angry at Mhee. Mhee tries to explain everything to her but she doesn’t listen so she pushes him awaya car passes by and hits Mhee. The film ends with Bua coming to visit Mhee at his house hoping he would get better and giving him a second chance .
Bua gives him his favorite Beattles album they were talking earlier in the film as a gift. They have a little talk and then smile at each other. There will be a song from the Beattles album as a soundtrack as well. The film ends with the narration of the present day Mhee talking about how he started his relationship with his girlfriend and turns her into the love of his life.
There would be around 15 people in this team; a producer, director, writer, editor, co-producer, cameraman, makeup artist, 2 costume personnel, location finder, 4 actors/actresses, and 2-3 key grips. For the location, we want a vintage house with a mailbox in front of the house.
Premise: What if Sorn finds a new love when Sorn and Bua are away from each other?
Major dramatic question: How is Mhee going to protect Bua from being heartbroken?
Main character goal/ objective: To protect Bua from the truth that sorn is breaking up with her.
Main character obstacle:
1.Sorn breaks up with Bua which could make her sad.
2. Mhee pretends to be bua’s ex-boyfriend to keep her happy.
Main character transformation:
Restart
I am a co-producer for this film. Now, the producer and I have already contacted the actors and actresses to take their photos on this coming tuesday. We will post the photos for you to seen as soon as we finish taking and editing the photos.
The Love Storeys
I am an actress for this film in which I've talked to the director of the film about the character I have to be in order to understand the role that I will play.
Fading Light
I am a stylist for this film. I have talked about the mood and tone of the story with this team and are still in the process of designing the style for costumes and makeup for the character.
Jiraroj Bothdamrih - Director
I am the director of a new title called Please, Mister Postman. It is a childhood sweetheart love story, but it has to be something more than just a boy falling for a girl. I have been working with our writer, Benyapha, on developing the story and we have created the motive for the boy in falling in love with the girl. The two character shares the same taste in music, as well as using letter mail as the mean of building their relationship. The two means will be used to develop relationship between the two main characters from the beginning to the end. The script is in progress. I am putting our ideas together and shaping the script with my writer.
Our producer and co-producers have found the potential actors and actresses. My team will be seeing them at the beginning of the week and decide who will get the roles. The costume crew is advised about the theme and costume needed. We will be going out to see our location within this week. Everything should be ready by the end of the week.
Veterans were country heroes. They sacrificing everything for our land but not soon after all got washed away from people memories. Scars remain on their body and soul. Some wound of honor from protecting their homeland was seen as disabled and ugly. Should they being forgotten and mistreated like this? This documentary will reveal all of the veteran story; their battle, their life after the battle, the effects on them and their family. To help remind people about their bravery and remind us the debt that can never be repaid.
The main focus is Mr. Chaicharn Harnnawee’s story. We have already interviewed and film Mr.Chaichan Hannavee. He was once captured as a prisoner of war for 10 years in Vietnam.
Editing:
Beginning the documentary with the trumpet and gun fire sound like how it was on the veteran memorial day. As the last gun fire sound fade out Mr. Chaicharn house scene fade in and continually cut to other close up of his house so we get the sense of his current life. Then introducing Mr. Chaicharn; who he is, which battle he was evolve, about his family and friend and the current life. I will cut tight each scene and matching the picture with Mr. Chaicharn voice over. Other veteran interview will also be including so audience can see effect on the veteran in a bigger scale. It will end with his singing that he once sang in the army as the picture fade black.
We will soon go to interview another authoritative source Mr. Anusorn Asavasongkram at the veteran hospital for further information.

I am a director in this documentary and Last Friday we start filming, our team went to interview Mr. Chaicharn Harnnavee and his family at his house in Bang Bua Thong district. His story is really surprised me and it is deeper than I thought before. Mr. Chaicharn Harnnavee was a spy solider that went to fought in Lao, his duty is to transmitted and translated Morse Code to contact with all the allied camp. But unfortunately he was kidnaped by Vietnam solider together with his American solider friend.
The story will start off with Mr. Charnchai Harnnavee (main story) there will be an interview of him alone and another will be an interview with him and his wife. The shot will have a medium shot, medium close up shot and close up shot. There will be a zoom in (mouth and eyes) when he gets to the emotional part.
Next, will be a scene in hospital, I wanted to film solider who was involved in a real fight, so this is a place. The interview questions will be similar to what we asked Mr. Chaicharn. In here, I wanted to makes it look more artistic by taking a silhouette shot and using more motion picture techniques to communicate.
Follow up with the story of another soldier at solider headquarter in Din Daeng. I wanted to start up this part with a pan shot of solider lining up. Here, we will get a footage when solider practice and army life in the camp to insert in our video. Apart from an interviews, I want to get a line up and heavy practice shot for insert.

I am a co-producer who has contacted some of the authoritative sources such as the War Veterans Oraganization and the Veterans Hospital. Both of them are the places where are special for helping the soliders who used to go to any wars. I volunteered to do this duty because I think I can do it well. Since my father is a policeman, so he is familair with these people and organizations. Then, I can ask him to help me contact them and make shooting more convinient for us to work in the official places. Moreover, I would like to share some ideas of having the relatives who have to live their life at risk all the time because my grandfather is a solider who went to the Vietnam War while my father is a policeman who has to sacrifice his life to help other people, so I, as a relatives, am very worried of their safety in their live.

I typed "soldier" wrong in above comment. Sorry.
I am an editor of the film "Restart". I cannot do anything much since my team has not shot anything yet. We regularly have meeting. So far, I have done some research about color grading and how to adjust DSLR camera to get color of tones I want. I plan to make the pictures flat in order to make it easier for me to adjust color of footages while editing. The only special effect that will alpear in this film is the car crashing scene. I plan on using Final Cut Pro to edit this film.
I work as a below-the-line in lighting team. My work is to help setting and operating all lights when filming. We plan to shoot on March 29.
For Below the line position I work as a costume and make up for Please, MisterPostman group.
For now what I have to do is learning how to dress up like a vintage style fashion and finding the perfect costume for the character. For girls mostly are dresses in pastel colour with a long white sock. For boys I have to find a costume that look like a postman. In my head now what I am thinking is a scout uniform which we can adapt to make it look like a Postman officer uniform.
Futhermore, I also do costume for The Love Storeys group, mainly I have to be the one who approved the look of the character before they appear on set. In order to make sure that the costume is perfect for telling a story also match the skin tone of each character.
Costume and makeup artist - below the line position
I have to prepare on the main character's costume which I'm waiting for the final script from the other above the line positions. Since the main character is a girl who works at one famous hotel.. So I think she should wear something classy and looks credible too. As so the makeup, I must again talk to the team about how they want to express this girl to the audience, then I will be able to find the perfect outfit as well as makeup tone for her. Here, I don't have much creative control but will do my best in giving certain ideas to match the main charater and the rest side-characters too.
So far, I need to know the storyline which is in progress by the above the line positions. Then I will again update my duty here.
The Perfect Departed
I am the writer for this film. I have developed some plot of the story that makes the story much more related to the character’s objective. Because the main character’s girlfriend has to be disappeared for some reasons, I cut off the reality show part and change it to the main character’s mental illness, Schizophrenia.
Characters in the story
Win- A 24-year-old writer who dreams to be successful writer one day. He is good-looking. He is isolated due to his work. He has to spend a lot of time by himself for his writing. Win does not know that he has some mental illness that can ruin his life and his dream in a short time.
Pat- A English tutor who is 23 year old. Win and Pat meet at a coffee shop and then they fall in love with each other. Pat is kind and pretty. She always supports Win to reach his dream as a writer.
Nick- He is the only friend of Win. They know each other since they were very young. Nick is very friendly and independent. He is the first person who notices Win’s hidden mental illness.
Premise What if his girlfriend never exists?
The major dramatic question- Will Win be able to get back to his normal life and know that his girlfriend comes from his illness.
Main Character’s goal and objective- He wants to be a successful writer.
Main Character’s obstacle- Win wants to be a famous writer so he needs to write a lot to achieve his goal. However, his mental illness that he has never realized of come into his way and pause his dream at that time.
Main Character’s transformation –
The character transforms from normal person to crazy person.
Act I- Win, a young writer who dreams to be successful in this path one day. Win is a good-looking guy. He does not have a lot of friends because he has to spend a lot of time writing his books. He lives alone in an apartment. The only close friend he has since his childhood is Nick. They always catch up to each other but lately Win denies to go out to meet people because of his compulsive obsession in writing begins to take control over him. One day, Win decides to go out and work with different environment. He goes to a coffee shop where he always loves to go. While Win is writing a book, he glances at one beautiful woman who walks into the coffee shop and smiles to him. Win suddenly knows that he falls for her. Her name is Pat, a 23-year-old English tutor. Win and Pat start dating after that. Everything goes well until the morning of his birthday. Pat vanishes from his room.
Act II- Win wonders where Pat is. By that time, Nick comes to visit Win because it is his birthday. Win and Nick talk about Pat because Nick has never met her before. Nick is excited to know that Pat is English tutor because he is finding one for his sister. Win gives Pat’s phone number to Nick to contact her anytime he wants. Win cannot contact Pat at all no matter how many times he calls her, no one picks up. However, Pat shows up again at the end of the day while Win is writing his. Things seem to be normal again until Nick notices something strange about Win and Pat.
After Nick finds out that Pat does not exist, he tries to tell Win but Win refuses to believe it. Win tries so hard to find Pat after he cannot contact her for a while. He stops writing his novel and does every way to find his lost girlfriend. The only outcome is nobody knows his girlfriend. Win starts to face with his emotional breakdown bit by bit. His behaviors have changed. He does nothing except waiting for Pat to come back. Nick really worries about Win after he knows that Pat is Win’s imagination.
Act III- Nick comes to Win’s apartment to reveal that Pat is not real. What Nick sees is really bad picture of Win. Win’s mind stuck in the daze. Nick gives Win’s novel to him. After Win read it, he realizes that Pat is his favorite character in his novel. He now knows that Pat is only his imagination.
I'm a director for this piece - update after the first shoot
i went on location with my team last Saturday since early morning. The temperature is getting hotter and hotter especially when we are involving with the melting of gold bars which will melt only at the melting point of more than one thousand degree celcius. That day was very very challenging for all us but yet was a great experience.
I actually planned to use a tripod in order to avoid having yoyo shots... unfortunately because of the very hot condition.. all the workers cannot stand still in one place. They have to move with the direction of the wind all the time in order to hide from the flame and hot smoke that rised. So, we keep one camera on a tripod at a distant to record all the long shots and certain pans.. while the others are all handheld camera. Everything was happened so fast except the time we spent on waiting for the gold to melt in a cement kinda box.. Otherwise they use only 5-10 minutes to fill the whole 6 foots buddha statue with melted gold... Also they were doing it at a higher position.. with this I mean they built a temporary staircase to reach the hole of the inverted buddha statue. And as I used to mention that I want to use a drone.. here I discovered that I cannot because the drone will flies so fast and loud that it will actually freeze the gold while pouring.. so we are not allow.. So with this problem we try to take close up shots of what we can (the editor will post) but luckily we can get some nice footages...
Also about the voice over.. I decided to have my key informant to narrate over with another interviewee on the subject matter. This would give more natural sound and feeling to it than a voice over will do.. then the writer would work on the translation for me. And I did get a high depth while interviewing.. next time I will try another angle where the interviewee turn to the left and I will leave more negative space on the right.. I think it would give the feeling documentary more...
For the lighting, I used all natural sun light because everything was shot outdoor.. even the interview was at the source's place where there are mirror 360 degrees.. that allows sunlight to penetrate.. so the rest I want is the vignette.. To make the piece more mysterious and holy... this I have already discussed with my team and handle it over to the editor.
There are many more shot I wants to take that the place I went last Saturday cannot give me.. like the shot of people throwing their gold accessories into the dipper.. and the other process of making the statue. This coming Friday 20th, my team and I will go to another place that the producer has contacted for us together. Will keep you update. Please give suggestions and comments. Thank you

I’m a producer. Today I went to The Veterans War Organization of Thailand to contact with K.Watcharapong Chotiprabha who is public relations officer there. He provides 2 veterans for us to interview. One used to combat with Vietnam. Another one used to combat with Korea. But we still haven’t got their names. Then I go to The First Infantry Battalion King Own Body Guard to contact with K. Jakkrit Srinon who is a colonel. He provides us location where we can shoot a daily livelihood of veterans and where they train, and he also provides us some related pictures and footages to back up our documentary. Then I go to Phramongkutklao Hospital to ask them that if we can go inside to interview one or two of veterans.
The date that we will go to The Veterans War Organization of Thailand again to interview will be on Friday 27th, and the date that we will get back to The First Infantry Battalion King Own Body Guard again to shoot will be on Monday 30th

(Teen Pregnancy in Slum)
Above the line position: writer
As I am the writer for this documentary, I saw that “Slum + Teen pregnancy” words already have content in themselves and they are powerful words that will lead to people’s attention. In this four minute piece, we aim to mainly focus on Nong Nam’s life. She will be the one who narrates the story.
After I went to see her at her house today with the team. The questions that they are well-prepared mostly didn’t get the answer that we are satisfied with because Nong Nam still isn’t familiar with us. It was also the first time that we sit and talked to her seriously so she was quite under the pressure with a lot of people approaching to her. I felt that she is a talkative person and she wanted to tell her story but we have to be like friends first. So, we decided to come back to her often times and we surely think that the next time, we will get the answers more deeply and more interesting with more relaxed atmosphere.
I suggested that the way to approach her more effectively is to set the camera on the tripod and let’s just talk to her like we are not going to interview her formally but talk to her naturally like we really want to make a new friend and also create some funny moments.
The content of this documentary will be about the hardship of her pregnancy during the age of 18, the change of her life after she got pregnant, and some conflicts that happened. So far, we knew that Nong Nam did get married after her mother knew she started to get pregnant. Her mother wanted the wedding happened and it happened. This lead to conflict between Nong Nam’s house and Her husband’s house. We found that this could make our piece more interesting and dramatic.
Since Nong Nam is just a teenage girl, we want to find out about the cause that makes her decide in many things in life; to keep her child with her, to continue study in the school, to cope with treating from others, to cope with the stress inside.
The problems that we faced today were
The Proposal (the name was changed from "The Last Present")
My duty in this production team is participating as the Director of Photography. I would be taking care of the different types of shots that would be filmed in different scenes and location. As we've finish planing and talking about the structure of the story, and the location that we are planning to shoot the film, my job is to think of a creative shots that could make this an interesting short film. Also, I would try my best to make this position an above the line position.
Restart
Again, my duty for this production team is the Director of Photography. As I've read through the script that was posted, it kept me thinking about the shots that would be happening in the film. I have an idea and the picture in my head on how each shot should be filmed. I would try my best to make this fiction creative and make my position an above the line position.
The Love Storeys
In this production team, I am an below the line working as first camera. From looking at the story board, I have the idea right away on how I should set up the camera for taking these types of shot. I will communicate with the Directory of Photography on how shots should be done.

MUAY THAI WARRIOR
Production Team:
Director: Kob #0125
Writer: Mint #0422
Producer: Vicky #0109
Editor: Fah #0117 & Palm #0414
This piece started as we were assigned to brainstorm in class about the content. The story got more excited and excited as we discussed. At the end of the class, I knew right then I want to work on this film and the rest of the members agreed.
Thai boxing is a national sport of Thailand. We wanted to portray Thai boxing in a way that is understood rightly. Muay Thai has been practiced for a long period of time but is understood by many differently. We want to give the real definition from an expert.
I would like to merge the combination of displaying the techniques, movements and also conveying the message to the audience of what Thai boxing really is from the mouth of the professional, a lot of technique and style in filming will need to be inserted.
The film will keep coming back to movement of one of the main images used to take the audience into the main theme of the film. Using devise symbols of Thai flag, bell ring of each round, and tone as a symbol creating the style of the film. The pacing and mood of the story will be fast slash slow and intense in color; dark and moody. The story point will focus on:
The first shot will be movement of Thai Flag waving in the air slowly introducing the audience with Thainess. Transition to Wai Kru music (Thai boxing tradition to ‘Wai ’ before the actual match starts) follow by the boxer ‘Wai Kru’ movement on the stage. We will then cut the scene by the bell sound (bell ring used when each match ends) to grab audience’s attention. Then fast transition to the real match; varieties of shots will be use here…we want the audience to see the overview of the match and also lots of close up to focus on the face expression and movement of the boxers to stress the dedication and keep the audience moving (Here the footage won’t be long...only use to introduce to new scenes). Next few scenes will be several footages of Thai boxers practicing their movements (focus on the deep colors, contrast, and high shutter speed photography with lots of light will be used.) Next is the interview of the guru…here the feel will be slow, calm, and touching. The guru will tell us what Muay Thai really is, the practices, how it evolves, and how he want the true meaning to be understood by the new generation. Footage will be insert while the guru makes his explanations (footage will range from movements, practice, face expression, and the coach training the boxer). Back to the guru, how he want the beauty of Thai Boxing to be seen and treasured amongst by the today’s generation…how he never want it to fade away. Back to the match here the film will only show the boxer make to his final round and zoom in to his face expression as he receives the prize. Fade to black. Another bell sound as the match ends. Title of the film.

Om Noi Stadium

The Golden Buddha
I am an editor for this piece. As my team already mention above that we already went on the real location last saturday since early morning. We went to take the process of melting the gold bars for Buddha Statue.
I already collect all of the raw footage from my team and try to find and selecting the best shots that I can combining them into sequences to create a finished documentary. I use iMovie and FinalCut Pro to combine those shots together and I also use Vignette effect to make this documentary more mysterious and holy.
I faced with many obstacles while editing this video because some of the shot is not clear enough like the camera is focusing in the wrong spot and also yoyo/shaky shots. To solve this problem I think I have to talk and discuss with my team, so that it will not happen again when we went to shoot at location next time.
This is an example of our raw footage from our first shooting at Bang Len, Nakhon Pathom.
by Yosawadee N.
In this project, I am a producer. I have contacted all of the authority sources such as trainers named Mr. Manoo, a policeman who brings us to the fighting field and an owner of the field named Mr.Songserm. I need to manage the schedule of shooting because the cockfighting field isn't opened every week. It opens only on Saturday and only every other week, so we have less time to shoot our film. I also have to provide the accommodation for the members because our location is at Chonburi province. I wanted to make everyone in the team feel convenient and relaxed to work, so I have tried afford everything they need to them. At fist, I would like to create the documentary which presents the amazement of figthing cocks. I would like to present it as one of the sports but the members think that it is not strong and interesting enough, so we discuss and agree to make the documentary in an aspect of the relationship between the trainer of fightingcocks and the rooseters themselves. In the case of equipment, we have the problem with batteries of the camera because all of them were ran out during working and it is quite hard to charge them, so we have to plan for using the camera very well. Another problem is there were many people in the feild which caused us worked and moved around more difficultly. Moreover, most of the video that we got are shaky and out of focus. Finally, the most important problem is we could not choose the fighting pitch or set up any factors, so our videoes aren't as nice as we expected.

I would be the editor of this project. I would like to make this film to look like a music video but its content will be much deeper than the ordinary music video. However, we haven't got the final decision about the film yet because resently we have realized that whether we should make it in the form of documentary or not. But if we need to make it as the documentary, we would like to get the sources who used to face the interesting or dramatic experience because the audience may be interested more if the story is drama. On the other hand, even though I want the story to be drama, I still want it to give something back to the audience, for example, when parents cannot accept what a son is, what should he do?
This is an example of the style that I would like to edit if it is the fiction

On the past Friday, I just went to interview Mr. Chaichan Hannavee with the team members and unfortunately, his house is very close to my house, so it is easier for me to help guiding the team to his house. While shooting, I am the one who take care of the equipments and also note down all files we going to use in the next process including sound and video. Actually, I try to help the team as much as I can whenever they want some hand.

I'm an editor for this piece. If we think about bodybuilder, I would think about a man with a big muscle. I want to make it as to show the audience how strong of the person as an inspiration for people who want to have good body or good muscle.
So the mood and tone of the video would be...
and ...
For the content I've discuss with the team and we decided to do shadowing taechnique with one person. To show his routine and attending the contest on 17-19 April which the video might look like this...
but shorter and more interesting.

I am an editor in this group. I have researched some of editing techniques from youtube and tried to learn how they did it. I found one video about a Chris Eubank Jr. (famous boxer). Their editing technique is soooooo cool! The slow-motion and fast-forward technique gives me excited....and of course his body. ;) I love how the camera captured all of his movement and emotion.
The only thing I had a concern with was the fact that this video is setup. It will make a hugh different. Of course, our film is documentary. We cannot setup the sence. To capture the right shot would be difficult. Good news is we have a great camera man so I believe he can do it!
I am a below-the-line in this group. So far i had interviewed the cooker and did the audio. On the set, we met at 5 a.m. on the location and started filming around 6 a.m. It was a fun day!
A heartfelt scene from "Still Alice" that is touching and I want to do something semilar.
An OCD film that won an award at the festival.

Restart
As a producer, I have already done casting character for two main characters and extras who involve in the scene. This fiction has required the actor and actress who have the ability to speak in English very well and have good appearances, so I chose main characters from their look, personality, character, and acting skill. At first, we decided to choose Micheal 2nd year student from Thammasat Unversity to be Guy and Jing 2nd year student at the same university to be Lin. But the biggest problem was they were not available for us, so we had to change actor and actress immediately before we are going to choose the film.
This is Phoom 1st year student from Thammasat University. He has a nice looking and right character that we want. (Male character, Guy)
This is Mew 2nd year student from Thammasat Unversity. She has ability to speak English and has a good acting skill. (Female character, Lin)
This Keawsai 3rd year student from our faculty. She plays as Guy's mistress (extra). She is an actress for channel 7, so she is good at acting.
For our location, we decided to shoot four locations with seven scenes for each because the day in our film will restart for seven times. So, our locations are Phoom’s dormitory at Thammasat University, JC cinema, Res’ter Day or Spatula J-Park Rungsit, and Phaholyothin Road. The reason why we decided to shoot the location near Thammasat University because it's convenient for everybody to meet and go for shooting because everybody is failiar with the location.
These are the locations that we are going to shoot.

Bodybuilder
I am a director for this film. This piece will be a documentary which I did a research about bodybuilder and try to the main focus which I talked to my writter and we decided to focus the motivation of becoming bodybuilder. The documentary will open with our autoritarive source, Mr. Nawapob Boonmak (P’Jay), who working as an Engineer. We want the film to focus on his daily life and how he manage his time. He has to work 12 hours a day then work out couple hours after work, which is a really tough. We will continue shadowing him until the competition day.
At first we want to shadow a bodybuilder but then I think that that it should be the one who just started a few years because I can be a motivate people who interested in this kind of sport. Morever, he is a working man which can show other people that even though you have to work hard but you also need to have time to take care of yourself and do what you love. I hope after people watching this film, it could inspire at some point.
Bodybuilder
For this project, I will work as a sound and light director. I will focus more on the sound because we cannot control the light in the shooting set, so I will work hard on controlling the quality of the sound instead. However, I will try hard to control the light of the film the best. I would like to get the sound of amuzement in the bodybuilding competion like cheering sound of people and sound bite of interviewing the authoritative sources. I don't want to make this film too flash, plain and boring to watch, so I think that the sound can help increase the feeling of the audience.

The Golden Buddha
Editor: Since my team are working on process documentary of making Buddha statue. I think I found some interesting song or soundtrack that can be use in the film. I think this would be a good and well-driven soundtrack for our story because at the begining it's sound so mysterious and holy that might make our audience feel goosebumps. The song itself is very original too. Here is the song that I talk about, so you guys can listen to it.
Misplace (The Story of Us)
I’m a writer on this film. I’ve been working on the screenplay, me and my teammates were trying to come up with the new ideas cause our original story involved fire and we are not capable of making CG and stuff so we decided to come up with something new. We finally come up with the new story called ‘Misplace’ and I’m pretty sure we are going to stick to this one story. Here is a part of the script that I have written.
INT. THERAPY OFFICE – DAY
The clock is TICKING loudly; the therapist is observing the patient, the water from a tap DROPING constantly in SLOW MOTION. The patient eyes slowly moving from side to side.
Harry Durden, 21 year old, works in the grocery store. He has been suffering from OCD (Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder). Harry is not aware of his mental disorder and often gets upset when people don’t do things the way he does. Harry consults with a THERAPIST, 40s with a deep and soothing voice.
THERAPIST
Harry, how are you doing?
HARRY
(Playing with the pens on the desks, his eyes are wondering everywhere)
Ummmmmmm…
THERAPIST
Harry?
HARRY
(Shaking his head violently)
Sorry, what? I’m sorry, I just can’t. I can’t. I can’t do this anymore.
THERAPIST
It’s okay. Breathe in, breathe out. Take it easy.
HARRY
(Angry)
You have absolutely no idea what I’ve been through!
The screen shows 38 hours earlier

AMELIA
Sup, Durden?
HARRY
Ugh I hate this job.
AMELIA
Well, what else is new?
HARRY
I don’t get it why these people need to be reminded or fixed.
AMELIA
(laughs)
Oh, no! Please don’t tell me this is all about people putting the stuff upside down again!
HARRY
(Nods, embarrassed, defensive)
What?! Aren’t you tired of that?
AMELIA
Dude, you need a chill pill.
HARRY
It’s so annoying! And even you do that too sometimes, I’ve seen it.
AMELIA
Psh. Who cares? You know, not everyone is as ridiculous as you.
AMELIA jumps off the counter and walks out the door.
HARRY makes a cup of coffee, he makes sure he gets the proportion right in each every ingredient. Later he wipes and cleans off the counter.

Opening with a compilation of what people think of when they think of cockfighting. 
Then introduction of Mr. Manoo in a proper interview format. Mr. Manoo is a cockfighting trainer for as long as he can remember. For him cockfighting is not just about money or entertaining but it is all of him. He’s joining the footpath of his father since all he ever know while growing up is this. The sport that seems cruel to others is what’s holding his dear life back in the past and till the present. Cockfighting is more than just an entertaining gambling to Mr.Manoo, it is like a traditional life of people that send down for generation. Thai cock fighting is not the violence fight that you see the rooster’s blood and money. It is a person way of life.
Interviews Questions:
Introduce yourself.
How to train a rooster for a fight? Preparation? Equipment needed?
What is a cock fighting? What is cock fighting to you? (it is his career)
Tell me about your team.
Who teach you/introduced you about cock fighting?
How did you become a rooster trainer? Why? (it almost like a tradition through the family three. His father did it and his grandpa also did it. Mr.Manoo job is the only way that he could support his family)
How much dedication does it needed to become a rooster trainer? (He practically lived with his roosters and also lived with his co-worker partner. He woke up at 6 am almost every day to take care and train rooster.)
What do you like most about cock fighting?
How is it important in your life?
What if cock fighting is said to be illegal? What if bird flu spread again and all your roosters are ordered to be terminated?
If you are not a rooster trainer what will you do instead? Do you ever want to do something else? Ever want to quit?
Tell me about your first rooster. First fight. First win. Most memorable match. Greatest achievement. First time stitching the rooster head.
What does your family think of you who work as a rooster trainer?
Do you want your children to become a rooster trainer like you?
Don’t you think it’s torturing rooster since they can’t speak like boxer? Isn't sinful? Aren't you afraid of karma?
I will also conducted interviews about Mr.Manoo with other people around him such as his co-worker partner and his wife.
Interviewing with Mr.Manoo will be conduct in front of his house where his rooster can also be seen in a steady motion. While in the cockfighting pit camera will be hand held because we have to follow Mr.Manoo around actively plus there’s no space for us to place the tripod. However the established shot and other close up shot that doesn't involved with following the subject will be using tripod for a stable, neat and clean shot.
As for the lighting we use only natural light because first we can't set up the light in the cock fighting arena due to it will interupt the match. During interview we also use natural light since the interviewed area is outdoor and very espose. After seeing the location last time the light is good enough.
Last time that we went to the cockfight pit and Mr.Manoo home we’ve already collected number of usable of footages but the problem was it’s not enough. Most are either out of focus or very shaky.
We also haven’t really properly interviewed him intimately to collect the quality sound bite we only went there to collect the information and break the ice with the subject.

So far, our team managed to complete the first shooting this Monday. Unfortunately, I could not make it due to personal reason. Yet, on Tuesday, I caught up with the director and watched some of the scenes they shot on the day. As an editor, I’ve been trying to find the best way to intrigue the audience by checking out some documentaries and interviews.
For this documentary, I am well aware of the possibility that the audience might lose their attention very easily, since there is only one character, the owner of the restaurant, who will be leading the film from the beginning till the end. Thus, we might need to put the voice-over narration for storytelling. My job as an editor, I need to find the right time/scenes to put this narration. It will give the documentary more flavors and allow the audience to get more information about the character, which is not revealed through the interview.
I wouldn’t use much music here for the more natural look of the film, such as noise from the market, yet I will be more focusing on choosing the right font style and size of the caption. At the same time, I will be trying to find the right time to cut the footages so each scene can match one another enabling the audience to understand the storyline smoothly.
I found the useful documentary to look at from Korean channel (sorry I couldn’t find the subtitle), which has the style that I wish to portray. This documentary is called “Documentary Three Days”, and this one is observing the people working in the market and following their routines for three days.

So far, our team discussed about the theme of the film and how it should be illustrated. We haven’t had enough interviewee for the film, the artists who are based in Bangkok, however, as soon as we find the right people, we will start shooting.
I, as an editor, have been talking over the styles and contents with the director, and trying to come up with the best editing techniques which can represent the theme of the film effectively.
This documentary film requires different styles and tones to those of my other work, “A Day in the Life of a Cook”. Our main theme is to emphasize the idea that more appreciation is needed for the arts around us. We will introduce three artists within the film and show some aspects of their lives via music. I am thinking of using both slow and fast beating music to highlight the contrast between the fast society we live in and the artistic places where people stop by and take their time to appreciate different form of arts. Moreover, I consider jazz music since it can create creative and warm atmosphere of the film. It is important to give the audience time to relax watching our documentary. In order to add on the contrast, I am planning to do experiment with colors. I found this video and it is very interesting to see how the editor develops the vivid contrast via the change of colors: from monochrome to polychrome.
A love story about two people who were in love in a previous life. Mina, a 25-year-old woman who works as a Barista at the coffee shop in town. Mina always finds her time to travel as much as she can. On the other hand, Tun or Tunwa , a famous 26-year-old Instagram blogger who writes a review of every places he goes. A night before departure, Mina had a weird dream about a place which is Phuket and a blurry face of a guy. She wants to escape the city life and also to find out about her strange dreams; she decides to go to Phuket to clear her head. So does Tunwa, he goes to the same place with Mina because he was hired to write a review about tourist attraction in Phuket.
When they both arrive at Phuket, they go to the same place. Tun tries to take picture to post on his Instagram, Mina also tries to take pictures of the scenery too but she unintentionally block his view. Mina turn around and her eyes meet his, she feels something deep down inside her that is unexplainable. But unfortunately, Tunwa leaves before Mina figures thing out. On the other hand, Tunwa who left right after he took the picture, he sends those pictures to his girlfriend but got no replies from her. Another day passes, Tunwa goes to the local market and he accidentally meet Mina who is buying food from the food stall near the street. Tunwa doesn’t recognized Mina. He goes straight to the food stall and purchase the same food but unfortunately there is only one left. Mina tries to grap the last piece of the food but Tunwa got it. Mina starts to argue that she is the first one who saw it. Tunwa finds the woman who stands next to him adorable and funny. Even though, she may look a little bit childish but there is something about her that make his heart skips a beat. But seem like fate didn’t favor him, his friend sends him a photo of his girlfriend having affair with another guy. His world is falling apart. He tries not to think about that so he decided to go to a bar around the street to get drunk and forget about his unfaithful girlfriend. At the same time, Mina also goes out to celebrate her birthday alone (March) at the local bar.
Element of surprise:
In an ironic twist, Tunwa still got hangover from yesterday drink and he was drowned in the sea where both of them decided to go for a walk on the beach. He lost his consciousness and then the flashbacks start. All the memories from his previous life replays. It turned out that He and Mina love each other they made a promise that they shall meet again in this life and the hereafter. One day Mina’s parents found out about their relationship, they were really strict about their culture, they forbidden Mina from seeing Tunwa. Unfortunately, Mina and Tunwa was out of luck. Mina had to move to new place and they never get a chance to see each other again. Back to the present life, Mina is the one who helped him and rescue him from the sea. Mina finally recognized Tunwa’s face from her dreams. After she put Tunwa on the bed, she leaves quietly.
At the end, Tunwa wake from his unconscious and looking for Mina who left to Phrom Thep Cave. He tries to find her by following her to-do-list diary and they finally met. He hug gently her from the back and the end.
Look of the film:
A lot of long shots to show the scenery. The film will be focused on both Mina and Tunwa, telling story about their relationship. The story will be portrayed to Mina’s point of view.

Production Team:
Producer: Vicky #0109
Director: Kob #0125
Writer: Mint #0422
Editor: Fah #0117 & Palm #0414
Muay Thai Warrior is the documentary film about Thai boxing.My position for this film is Producer. My job is contact authority source such as boxing trainer, boxers and all the locations that we will shoot. The first location that we will shoot is the boxing gym at Bangkok Thonburi University. We will start shooting on 23 March which is this coming Monday. I already contact the trainer at the gym so we can have an in-dept interview with him.
The second shooting day is at Siam Boxing Stadium which located at Om-noi Samutsakhon. The reason that I choose to contact this stadium is because the famous stadium like Rachdumnern or Lumpini Stadium will not allow us to bring a dslr camera or video camera to shoot inside. We will shoot at Siam Boxing Stadium on March 28.
Besides contacting authority sources, I also make a schedule and prepare the equipment for the production. Right now, as a producer, our group still face no obstacle and hopefully we will have no struggle throughout the project.

We cast 9 people but in our film there is only 6 characters 4 females and 2 males.
We will do our mock up shots this coming Wednesday and we will soon start the shooting when the screenplay and storyboard are ready. And also we still need to wait for your authorization to borrow the equipments.

(Smirking)
Ha! A warm welcome? You dirty fat cats only kept me because I rescued your little baby! If I hadn’t done so I wouldn’t be standing here.
DRACO:
Why are you doing this?
TULA:
Why? You of all people should know. You and your kin have all this while we were wandering in the wild like animals. Our ancestors came to you begging for the least and you drive them out like dogs!
With that TULA kills DRACO

Restart Mock-Up I
I am an editor from Restart. Today, our team has done mock up shots of 2 scenes to prepare for the real editing in the next few weeks. The actors are not actual. Their acting is not real. Some of the scenes are not well focused. We are still deciding which background music we should be using.We do this mock-up to learn all mistakes in order to improve. We just wanted to know about tone, places, camera angle and editing technique we are going to use.
Excellent work. Your camera placement and scene development is coming along nicely. Bring this footage to class on your computer and I will help you with the cutting and the reverse angles. I think, now, you can see that you need quite a lot of variety so that you can shoot the same day (with varing details in the story) over and over again. A+
I am an editor from Please, Mister Postman. This is the video we show some of the locations we are going to shoot. There are the setting at main character's house which takes place in Saraburi. And the mareket in Ayudhaya. We took this place because it portrays the old time in the 1960s. We want to show the mood and tone of the film in general. This isn't the mock up just to show only location since we intended to be more familiar with the place before the real shooting.

Here are 2 sample footages of what we have done so far. These are just samples. We will decide which footage we wre going to use. We tried to show some of muay thai movement which we applied slow-motion technique.
People nowadays especially teenager are hot headed, overreact and way too curious. Obsess too much about other’s business. They might think that it is normal and nothing but they never realize that sometimes, it can bring them into trouble. This short film is to show people the unfortunate events of one having hot tempered and care too much about little things. It will be the good lesson learns for the audience, teaching them to control their tempered and be more conscious before putting oneself to any matter or making decision to do anything. And what is a better way to deliver message while entertaining the audience in light hearted way.
The story revolves around a guy named Arm, a first year university student who got involve with a mysterious message on the toilet door. Because he is very nosy and a hot tempered guy who act before think list of unfortunate events happens to him while he’s trying to find his unidentified opponent.
The camera will mostly shoot on him and also shows his point of view. One day while Arm is walking to class he suddenly want to go to the toilet. The first floor bathroom was way too crowded so he went to the fifth floor where people rarely come. While he’s sitting on the toilet, he sees the message on the toilet’s door “Ann I like you” He think it is funny and kind of curious who is the guy written this message. He replies below the message that “Just tell her, Chicken!” then leave.
On the next day Arm use the same toilet room out of curious. He notice a reply to his message, “If it’s you, will you dare telling her? Red panty wimp.” Arm surprises that the mysterious messenger know the color of his panty and he was kind of mad that he was insulted. Arm decided to find the identity of the mysterious messenger and give him a punch.
Arm tries multiple ways in order to find the guy from going to see the security camera, guarding the toilet and kicking down the toilet door while it was occupy. As he tried to figured out the mysterious messenger identity they continue replying each other’s messages with insulting words. His class participation score continually drop.
Arm’s curiosity, madness and anger increase fast wanting to know who is his bastard chat friend in that toilet so much. Arm is trying to hide himself in the next toilet room as usual. It was already late and no one has walk in to the toilet. Arm was ready to call it a day when the sound of a foot step enter the restroom. He waited silently and excitedly. Something tell him that this might be the one. Suddenly, the squeaky sound of marker was heard. Arm doesn’t think anything and hurriedly climb the partition trying to see the guy’s face. Unfortunately, he accidentally falls down on the toilet floor and cannot move his neck until that mysterious guy walks out of the toilet.
For the plan of realization

Last week, my team already did the mock up shot for the film. We take it very serious about how the film is going to look like and also interesting at the same time. We didn’t decide for the music background yet but everything is on process. We will have an interview plus real shoot base on this mock up on 6 April.
Im a director for this piece. For the past two weeks, my editor, Sasikarn and I have been working to put various shots together. (The editor will be the one who post it later in here) I know we got the problem in getting the story flows smoothly.. So Yesterday 28th March, my team and I went to place again to do some reshoot and get a better establishing shot. I plan to put something in between the first minute of excitement and the fisrt authoritative source. Also something after an authoritative source to the process documentary.
We got a sign of the province 'Nakorn Pratom' as well as a 'โรงหล่อพระ' sign to explain the audience better about where they should imagine themselves to be while watching the film. But unfortunately the place is under contruction so there is no proper sign of the location.. just simply 'โรงหล่อพระ'
We also have corrected our soundbites to a clearer ones with high depth of field. (as a director I love it) The next level I will do is, I will sit with my editor and edit the piece, make it smooth, make it easier to watch and will update you again ka!
Also, I have corrected the direction of the smoke in the title... and will edit it together with the incense sticks and golden budda image. Will show you next class otherwise we will post in here for comments ka. Thank you.
The Golden Buddha
Im a editor for this piece. Since my director already mentioned it above that we went to the real location again to reshoot some shot in order to get our story flows more smoothly. I will post it for you to see very soon ka.
As we already have discussion on our piece in class about what we have to add and which part we have to edit. We already edited the direction of the smoke and merge it together with incense sticks shot and also make it appear on the golden buddha image like what you suggested us to do. So this is the video, please check it and give us some comments ka.
Excellent work! I have a few suggestions to make it even better. At 0:22 let the song continue only much softer. At 0:40 make a split edit. Have the new footage start at 0:38 but we can still hear the monk's words. At 0:54, very good! At 1:13 to 1:14 be careful of the yo-yo shot. Find the perfect in frame. At 1:37, trim the head. Start at 1:44 then cut to the shot at 1:45. No fast foreward effect.
Hi, this is our block shot for scene#1.
from this rehersal test shoot, we found some of the problems that will be surely improve before the actual date.
first part: the spacing between two light poles were not equal and the light reflected too hard in the car's mirror.
second part: this part is okay
last part: we cannot see the different much from the light.
the real one will be better :)
You will have to have a fill light in the car itself. You can not light the talent with only the street lights. There should be something in the car. It's not easy to do, but it can be done. Be careful about your screen direction too. There must be a motivation behind why a character is on the left or the right, and it should come from someone's POV.
This is our first interviewer.
Opening of the documentary is still yet consider to be change.

THEY BOTH stare and smile shyly at one another with their hearts pumping. A pause.

He leans against the gate with the flower rests beside him.
DISSOLVE TO:
TUNWA looks at the gate and he found a white paper stick on the gigantic red gate with a meaning of “SALE”. TUNWA leaves the house and begins walking up the opposite sidewalk.
SOUNDLESS.
FADE OUT:
THE END.
I'm the editor of Destiny Tied, we have done mock up shots for the story. In the mock up shot video we will show the location that we will be shooting this upcoming Monday. This is not the real actor and actress, we just want to make sure that the angle and progress are okay. Some scene are not in focused but we wanted to show the location. You might not get the video while you watch because the scene will be swapping from present to past back and forth. It will be more clear when we shoot because the tone and clothing will be different. Not all transitions will be use because I still don't know how to use Final Cut Pro properly but, I will be using Adobe Premiere pro for the final edit.

THE PROPOSAL
Make up in hospital scene

Hi I'm the editor of this film. Here is the market scene we shoot at Ayudhaya last week.
The video is not fully edit. The audio and the sequence is not perfectly.
I used this plastic bag technique to create haze in the picture for the dream sequences.
So first I have to take off my lens hood, slot the plastic bag, and pull it over camera lens. Then I secured the bag with elastic band. Lastly, I've to use a very low F-stop to create a blurry effect on the edges of the lens. I'm not quite sure for the exact F-stop I've used, but it's something around F1.8-3.5.
Hi, I am the DIRECTOR of 'Destiny tiED’, I have done drawing the story broad together with my DP: Chaiya 5507640224 and Ploypunsa 5507640463. We already done shooting and found that the story broad really help us work a lot easier and faster. Sorry for posting it so late, since I’ve some technique problem with posting.
