Video making of Emily of Emerald Hill

Two weeks ago, Jun Yu proposed that we could make a video of our customised version of EOEH for ACE. Our members are as follow: Jun-Yu, Kai Jin, Soo Han, Yik Hin, Andrew, Seng Kiet and me. Jun-Yu, our leader, prepared all the necessary props and clothes (although we all hate cross-dressing).

The few days of videoing was enjoyable. We took the time from our weekends and played our part in the play and we made jokes along the way. When we received or clothes, most of them were upset when they found out they were going to wear female clothes. They were uncooperative at first but after many persuasions we managed to get to work.

It was fun during the videoing but we always wasted a lot of time just on a few second scene. For instance, during the scene where Richard takes the plane to England, we took a lot of time convincing Soo Han and Yik Hin to wear their costumes as they were very unwilling to cross-dress. It took about 2 hours to tape that very small part of video due to our inefficiency but nevertheless it was somehow similar to a class bonding event.
