WEIGHT OF SALT: Production Update
We are still shooting the “WEIGHT OF SALT” documentary in Bario. Today is rest day for the crews after an exhausting two days shooting in the hilly jungle terrains. The weather was very kind, no rain thus spared by the infamous and almost inevitable leeches attack. Only Zaafa the sound man got a bite but the Assistant Director Jasminatha had a real haunting experience when leeches kept sticking and wriggling on her shoes.
Overall the production is smooth and on schedule, although I think slightly over budget due to some unexpected costs and hidden charges, which no producers appreciate I reckoned. The Kelabits are gentle and humble, one or two however, is leeching for money!
We will wrap on the 18th May while I will stay back in Bario for the offline post production. Then I should be heading straight to KL for the online and finishing.
Tomorrow is the reveal of HBF. Anxious anxious. Wish me luck!
