day one and two




















It was just the 2nd visiting places from the moment we arrived in korea, we went to seoul tower which made normal buildings and skyscrapers look like little models yet it was still a magnificent experience to be able to capture the whole of seoul just from one place. Couples shared their love and blessings with each other right on the ground level of seoul. I dont need to understand the words written on the locks but just by seeing so many couples coming to an area to proclaim their love, it's heartwarming enough. Later that afternoon, at MBC, i got to experience how the studios are like. What enlighten me the most was when the guy told us about Green screens and Blue screen, saying that lots of westerners have blue eyes, so they tend to use green screens more. But dont some westerners have Green eyes too? maybe they have a different shade of green eyes from the green screens. Hmmmm..................


Definitely more interesting that day one, it was day two at the palace museum and the old traditional korean house and picto studio. An eye opening experience of the childhood games they have which kind of reminded me of our very own singapore's kampong games like 5 stones and chaptek that my parents used to play when they were younger.
Right at picto studio, it's kind of surprised me that the studio is just a small simple office cause i was expecting a big studio since they've won many awards for the animations. In one of the rooms that they placed one of their projects was a huge 3D clay model that looked like the old palace that i saw earlier today. What amazed me was not only their handiwork but they only took 3 weeks to create what i saw today. definitely a tedious piece of work that needs lots of passion from the people who did it.
