Yasmin The Storyteller

The first time I met her was during a ciggy break outside Balai Seni Negara at one of her talks in conjunction with the Malaysia Video Awards. She said, "Oi!, isap rokok, bagitau mak!". Then she smiled. Padehal tak kenal pon.
Through her blog, I was then regularly invited to the mini screening/gathering she had at Leo Burnett. She even lent me her camera for my first ever video work, and funded several of my projects.
I made this as part of my college group project in 2006. We were bashed for making a documentary that was mostly shot on one angle and had no voice overs. It's really just sitting down and listening to her talk. Im glad I listened.
Thank you for everything.
AL-FATIHAH.
Yasmin Ahmad (7 January 1958 -- 25 July 2009)

[@damndesign72]

You are one truly extraordinary being! I had a good laugh and awareness on your messages in your film and adverts. And I can totally relate to it. Human is so separated now. Almost like we are being categorized and placed in different baskets. We should embrace the difference and cross-leveraging it to make this world a happier place. And perhaps a soothing space for our life on this earth in whatever fate/ form we are born in.

im a second year graphic student. i know "Yasmin Ahmad" but never wanted to know her. but, today, i macam interested untuk tahu, siapa dia and apa yang dia buat. i wish i could "know" her sooner. her works, her passions is just different. i pray that she will always be in a good place, xo.

[@SitiFatimah-sx1rd]

You should read the book “ Yasmin How You Know “ . Its a compilation of stories about Yasmin Ahmad that was told by her close families and friends. I don’t know how to describe the feeling when I read the book but I feel like one can love and miss a person even when they never met and know each other. And that is exactly how my feeling towards her . I cannot imagine the pain for the people close to her when they losing her. Such a gem and truly a person with a good soul and pure heart

[@forestchan1997]

@@SitiFatimah-sx1rd thank you for your recommendation!! I will try to look after it in kinokuniya. And yes, watched thoroughly from her works (the ads and movies) i cannot deny, she's such a phenomenal, using simple characters and copywritings yet the messages is just so big. Truly adore her, alfatihah :). Thanks again :D Have a good day!
