Graphic Novel insanity
Guys, I wanted to share with you some of my best buys of GNs for 2009. They are all really awesome. I am still collecting more titles (my wishlist is f***ing huge and never-ending) on a regular basis now and investing in these books are really worth it and gives me a great sense of satisfaction plus knowledge plus inspiration plus... Also, I am learning quite a lot about storytelling and sequential art... and I hope I can make 2010 more productive for my Graphic novels I am working on and hopefully publish them! Happy New Year 2010 to ya all!!! :)

Name of Project: Thin Air
Brief Description of Project:
Brief Description of Project:
“Thin Air” is a whimsical tale chronicling the final days of Hector. Seated in a wheelchair parked on the roof of his apartment building, Hector flings fishing lines into the cold heights of New York City. He bids his time for the impossible catch, whilst reality bites in the form of Cecilia, his home-care aide.Project Tagline:
“Thin Air” is not simply an elegy to solitude. Sometimes the quieter one’s world is, the harder one dreams and sometimes the universe hears you.

Who's Shooting What in 2010? Cain Chui
Name Of Project: 母語 or Mother's Tongue
Brief Description of the Project: In the summer of 2009 MM Lee released a statement regarding NMP Viswa Sadasivan's speech within parliament. Through his rebuttal I (and probably other Singaporeans) started questioning the meaning of our national pledge, but more importantly, with my severe lack of proficiency in the Chinese language, why do i have the ability to recite it in Mandarin? Through the film, in revisiting my childhood, I hope to question society and the education system of Singapore.
