Branded watch for $150?

I saw a branded watch for $150 on the internet. The description however indicated that it was a replica. The watch dealer and police spokesperson whom I interviewed said the same things.”When the offer is too good to be true, it probably is.”   

One of the good things about this job is that I get to see and film things that are not in public display. One example was some of the counterfeit goods the police had confiscated. 

   

There were counterfeit mahjong set, tea cups, bags, doll, watches, shoes, pirated software, games etc etc. 

When I was studying in China, there were a few markets well known for selling counterfeit goods. If you knew the right people, you would also have access to counterfeit goods of higher grades.

As the internet becomes the new marketplace for everything under the sun, counterfeit goods are no longer confined to a specific area or a certain network of people. This means new challenges to trade marks owners and content creators.

新系列《罪案琳接触》3月25日登场

前些时候忙拍片，就是为了制作新系列《主播看社会 罪案琳接触》。

互联网拉近了你我的距离，也拉进了你我和罪犯的距离。

高科技给我们带来沟通的便利，也带来了潜在的危险。

新的系列，顾名思义，和罪案有关，也和高科技有关。

新闻制作团队相当精简，从策划到收集资料、访问、主持、写稿、剪辑，一脚踢。预告片也花了好些时间构思，剪片师很不错，把我要的感觉剪辑出来了。

我的诚意，希望你能感受。别忘了，每逢星期天 八频道《十点新闻》

画面感

电视新闻，讲究新闻嗅觉和画面感。

在采访新闻重点的同时，也要想要拍什么画面，来呈现你的新闻。

看似简单的新闻片段，背后其实有许多记者、编辑、摄影师、剪片师等人的创意和努力。

那天为了拍电脑屏幕的一些画面，把电脑旁的资料档案搬开。结果搬回来的时候，就变成这个样子。 

摄影师笑我说，你不收拾就没办法办公了。

托拍片的福，我的座位现在非常整洁。

你用两秒钟看到的画面，可能是我们花了好几个小时，甚至是好几天，好几个月拍的素材。

早餐 oiishi

家里的早餐，是温暖牌早餐。

妈妈从小就“训练”我吃早餐，现已成了生活中不可或缺的一餐。吃完早餐，精力充沛，为忙碌的一天做好准备。

快餐店里的早餐，是幸福牌早餐。

念书时，和同学露营或在度假屋过夜，隔天早上到快餐店吃早餐，继续挥霍无限的青春与阳光。又或者是和情人相约一起吃早餐，也是一件浪漫的事。

咖啡店里的早餐，是美满牌早餐。

咖啡店是我和我老爸的感情联络站。叫一杯咖啡和菜头粿，天南地北无所不谈。

心动

好吃的料理，用的是新鲜的材料。

好看的新闻，有的是新鲜的素材。

好学的你我，看的是新鲜的资讯。

新鲜由你而动，新动网，xin.sg

有空没空，都要抽空来坐坐，吸收新鲜养分。

默默耕耘

抱歉许久没有到此一游。

近来有些忙，忙播报，忙拍片，忙上课，忙作汇报。

上个学期的考期撞上农历新年，学校大发慈悲，把考期和假期对调，先放假然后才考试。对于我这个兼职学生来说是好事，因为要兼顾工作和拜年已经非常不容易。

不过，这也表示，考完试后，我又得马上上课，今天完成了我第一堂汇报。

忙碌的时候，我常常会跟自己说，咬紧牙根，一下子就挨过了，还要不忘享受过程。对同样在努力的你，加油加油加加油！

It is nearer than you thought

Exams are over

Had Japanese curry rice for dinner to celebrate the end of exams for this trimester.

 

Having Japanese cusine in Singapore reminded me of Globalisation, one of the topics for my exams.

The impact is actually felt everywhere in our lives.

It is the buzzword in many ministers’ and VIPs’ speeches.

I interviewed people who were retrenched because their factories decided to move their operations to countries like China and India.

When I was a lonely student in Beijing, I found comfort in an Americanised fast food resturant at Wang Fu Jing. It provided a  familiar environment and menu. I was very shocked at this realisation.

My cousins married spouses from Russia and Vietnam and reunion dinner becomes an international affair.

Globalisation does not create the effects. What it does is extending the scope, intensity and speed of the consequences. Globalising the economic markets, information technologies, culture, the list goes on. It is actully nearer than most of us thought.
