Hush Baby was awarded the Special Mention award at the award ceremony of 22nd Singapore International Film Festival last night. I was so over the cloud that, even though I had my ‘thank-you’ speech memorised (which the audience must be aware of), I forgot the entire list of names whom I am thankful for, and would like to extend this award to them. Zihan, Vanessa, Henry, Harry, Thomas, Lincoln and Bernard. I think I am fortunate to have met friends and loved ones who believed in me enough to spend time, effort and money on Hush Baby, so thank you all.

Hush Baby is my latest animated short film completed recently in Jan ‘09. It runs for about 3 minutes, and as you can see there is a mixture of techniques like pixilation, 2D hand-drawn and 3D elements. Hush Baby is more of an experimentation than a narrative and I’m really excited at how the final render turned out. Hush Baby will be greeting audiences soon, stay tuned!
