A good story can change the world with Award Winning Director and Filmmaker Kelvin Sng

In this episode we have a very special guest is none other than Kelvin Sng. He is the Managing Director of Kelvin Sng Productions and head of Film and Media. From short films to feature films and everything in between, what has Kelvin Sng not done? His debut film, the feature film Taxi Taxi, was one of the third highest-grossing films in Singapore in 2013 and won the Special Jewelry Award at the ASEAN International Film Festival and Awards that year. Marking that as the best film in Singapore, and the biggest defining moment of his filmmaking journey, Kelvin is also an educator and conducts masterclasses at festivals and has also been selected a couple of times in the coveted Torino Film Lab to produce his films and projects. Another award he's won is the VidC Shorty Award for December 2019 for the show BFF.

In this episode, key takeaways:

1. You have to be very clear about what you want to do.

2. The only person who truly believes in you has to be yourself first. If you don't even believe in yourself, don't expect others to believe in you in the first place.
3. Identify your why. If you really want to do this then you must be mentally prepared to go through all the hardship.

4. Always maintain a spirit of learning and humility no matter how high you go.

5. Identify your purpose, hone your skills in communication, and always stay humble.

6. You have to go through a logical thinking process and it's okay to say no to people.
7. Start with your mind get it out and put it into action and be prepared for an exciting journey.

8. Courage is not the absence of fear. Courage is the ability to still carry on despite fear.
