After exposing myself to the Video function on my new mobile phone, I was thoroughly blown away by its portability and discreetness! Given its unparalleled handiness, it has every potential in bringing filmmaking to a never-before, new level of flexibility. I am simply, in awe.

We creep around the block's toes everyday as we walk along those concrete paths, to and from our pigeon holes. All these while, seldom do we lift our heads to take a look at those apartments above us that almost symbolize Singapore.

HDB estates are places 80% of Singaporeans called home, these heartlands are places around which people revolves their lives, they have become such a common Singaporean phenomenon that its significance has been largely been forgotten, amidst busy lifestyles and long working hours. Have we forgotten this Home, this Concrete jungle, many of us had roamed when we were kids?

I plan to depict this Icon by glorifying mundane items that make up the estate. To contrast this process of glorification, the vehicle that drives this film will be a very mundane routine to the average commuter - the journey of commuting to and from his home.

This is to be done via various means; besides depicting through 1st person perspectives (as demonstrated via the sample video attached) it will also be done through 3rd person viewpoints. Transitions linking up various scenes to transcend the "commuter" to various parts of the estate itself will be done through "interacting" with Urban furniture, such as in the attached clip where the next scene after the lift doors will probably be ground activities.

I will make use of mundane angles/objects (like shadows, morning traffic noise etc), give them a twist, a new perspective, to saturate the hidden vibrancy in the environment that surrounds the commuter along the journey.
