UM student reporting in ...

But I finish in 2010 Last Year <3~

Joining this year convocation... Still thinking to go or not to go?

aiming for master graduation lol

to me convocation is crappy.

you go and prepare yourself for 3 hours. stand for 5 hours.

and only 1 second they mention your name
then your fame is gone.

whats the point lah?

Er? I don't think can borrow one leh? Only the time when you graduate you can borrow.

I took mine already 2 years before I graduate

My sis graduate in 2009. My bro 2010. Me 2011.

So on my sis graduation in 2009, me and my brother borrow senior's robe and we went and took family photo with 3 graduates... cause 3 also from UM

so done in one shot. save space in the house and save money as well. save my parent energy to purposely go there wait for the whole day for that 1 second... of their childs name to be announce on the bloody speaker.

Yeap. you can get one earlier... during the release of the robe. they will notify us with letters

once you get it, go snap with your family directly. dont wait after graduation only snap

cause after that, all photo studio will be full with graduates.

Degree in Performing Arts (Drama)

The very weird course

We're located in KPS... Blok G or F ... Behind Perdanasiswa only ~

We don't have a proper faculty, even KPS is a borrowed place only...

Dance student is not with us. They're outside of UM if im not mistaken. They have bus to bring them there every morning...

Our syllabus is....

Compulsory university courses, same like others courses.
Directing
Acting
Script Writing
Management in Arts
Set and Props - divided to two stage. Where stage 1 you learn to build models. Stage 2 you build real stages....
Illustration in Theatre - This is where we learn to do photoshop, flash, and illustrator.
Play production
Dramatic Movement
Puppet Theatre Practice
Video Production
Advanced Vocal
Arts Career
Asian Theatre Overview
Western Theatre
Improvisation Movement
Voice & Speech
Analysis of Costume & Stage Make-Up - Very interesting course for ladys
And a lot of elective course that you can choose from Dance faculty / Music faculty.

I took both music anyway. I got an A for my Music Appreciation.

But in real life, I know nuts bout music.

Just study hard, everything will come easy.

I do my internship in Dua Space Dance Theatre. Didn't get to meet with celebrities... But those people I work with do appear on television once in a while.

Some already appear in Finding Angels NTV7 ~

About this, you cant. Because all internship have to go through / liaise with CITRA in KPS. They will fix for you which company with what scope to go for...

Basically performing outs is only for performing art student unless you're a marketing student. Maybe you can propose for CITRA that you're doing marketing internship under this performing arts company.

But again, based on my experience, performing arts in Malaysia have been trying very hard , i mean very very hard to grow... But again, based on today economy's, how many people would pay extra like. RM60 per adult tickets to watch a theater?

Generally, most of them will answer you "Wah, i can go cinema 6 times leh"...

So... uhm...you get what I'm trying to say?

actually all courses in local uni sure got pro and cons. its depend on how to evaluate them and look at them.

bear in mind, ntg is perfect in the world. same goes to the lecturer / facilities and so on...

but if you're good, no matter where you go, you'll be good
