Mosaic ALO experience: Glenda / Julianne

By Esplanade On 30 March 2009

My experience as a Mosaic ALO was a pleasant one. It was my first time handling the artist on my own and I was pretty nervous initially. Thankfully, Esplanade had previously provided us with some training when we interned for Huayi. Mosaic has been a great hands-on experience for me and I have learnt how […]

Mosaic ALO experience: Cheryl / Omega

By Esplanade On 23 March 2009

Mosiac Music Festival was a total blast! It was full of surprises! I have really enjoyed my first ‘official’ assignment over the past week. Weeks before the festival opened, I was given my assignment via email and asked to attend a briefing two weeks before my official start on 15 March. Initially, I was afraid […]

Mosaic ALO experience: Zi Ying / Claudia Acuña + Club M.I.A.

By Esplanade On 23 March 2009

The experience to work with so many musicians was truly inspiring and amazing, especially since they came from different countries and regions. They shared many stories with me about their lives and places that I have only seen on television. Claudia Acuña and Club M.I.A have reminded me that art is a powerful and universal […]

Mosaic ALO experience: Min Jia / Yuna

By Esplanade On 20 March 2009

My first official ALO assignment was hectic, pleasantly challenging and definitely exciting! My three days with Yuna have shown me that there is always much to learn, especially when I no longer have a mentor to turn to for guidance. Along the way, there were a good number of hiccups that did not occur during […]

5/2/2009
I am a mixture of excitement, anxiety and enthusiasm on my first day. It was my first time picking a group of artists up from the airport. With so much to learn and not knowing what the standard procedure is, I would call Clara about seemingly silly matters like when I should hold up the […]

EY Huayi ALO experience: Jacintha / Tears of Barren Hill

By Esplanade On 15 February 2009

It has been an eye opening experience for me. As a fresh graduate, this was a precious opportunity as I got to experience the way things really work in the arts industry. It was a chance to witness and assist an overseas production from the time of their arrival to departure from Singapore. Even though […]

EY Huayi ALO experience: Zi Ying / The Village

By Esplanade On 13 February 2009

Before my attachment with Performance Workshop could start, all of the EY interns were trained and briefed about Esplanade as an arts centre, the available facilities, various house rules and safety regulations (e.g. fire escape route, security). I was then given my job scope and schedule. The course of my internship was spent with two […]

EY Huayi ALO experience: Grace / Hands Percussion

By Esplanade On 13 February 2009

It was with much anticipation that I stepped into Esplanade on 21 Jan. Though I was only there for training sessions, I was excited about what was to come as it would mark the beginning of a truly remarkable journey. Light-hearted moments over the two full days of training added much spice to our time. […]
