Ming Jin and I went location scouting yesterday at Kuala Selangor for my new short film (the untitled part 2 of my 'BAD MOMMA TRILOGY' that started with CHICKEN RICE MYSTERY).
It was my first time at Kuala Selangor, and I got to see some of the locations where THE ELEPHANT AND THE SEA was shot. But I myself managed to find a couple of really interesting places for tomorrow's shoot.

I thought the moss-covered river looks pretty interesting. But I don't have a scene for that though.

This tiny creek is behind a wooden Malay house. We went to ask the kind woman for permission to shoot at her place, both outside and inside, and she was more than welcome.

A scene from THE ELEPHANT AND THE SEA was shot here.

The shoot's tomorrow. I'm excited. Still haven't found a title for my new film though. But it's inspired by Yasunari Kawabata's short story 'LOVE SUICIDES'.
