Long story short, late last week, Gecko (Ammar) invited me and Adijin to be panels on the local magazine/entertainment show for *gulp* teens; Tv3′s Remaja.

We were to talk about comics. From three distinct point-of-views: The professional international artist (Adijin), the up-and-coming local artist (Me) and the die-hard ‘peminat tegar’ fans (Gecko). It was a closed recording, and it happened last Sunday (20 July 2008).

As Ntv7 is a sister company of Tv3 as part of the Media Prima family, i guess that’s why the recording was done at their studio in Glenmarie Shah Alam. Sampai sesat-sesat cari tempat dia. (Pictures courtesy of Adijin.)

Once we arrived, we were to be..”remaja-rized”. Heh. Make-up. And I thought my wedding was the last time I’d be wearing make-up.

And then we were to hang around until it came time for our segment.

It was pretty impressive to see how the hosts and crew did their jobs take by take.

But we were also busy taking our own pictures.

..Very..very..busy.

..Unfortunately, we didn’t take any pictures during the recording itself. It was kinda fun, two rounds of questions. Our comics were made into props, scattered on the table on the set. From DIY zines, to rare collectors items, to local gems..we had it all. Some examples: Saga Preview Book, Komikoo, Silent Hill, Din Teksi, Zine Alifstyle Orang Kuat, Sin City, Urban Comics, Civil War TPB, Ultimates 2 HC, Abe, Calvin & Hobbes, Dragonball, etc..

“Remaja” nyaaaa..hahahaha.

They even let us in here to see the other side of the recording process.

And then we went back for cendol and rojak at Subang 15. Hopefully the Remaja episode will show sometime around August (16th maybe). Will update with that til then.
