UTEM's Convocation is my next job that was held in Melaka Technical University (UTEM) at Melaka. Its just a simple job that take 2 man to make it done. We just supply the plasma screen for the convocation. We supply 5 plasma screen TV for UTEM's media unit. We setup the screen at the position that was positioned. I was assigned to setup the screen at the position and its my job to swtich on the screen before the event started and to switch off after the event closed. We layered the BNC cable which is the cable that used to send video signal from the CCU's unit to the screen. I spent 3 days and 2 night there where in the night i guard the screen to avoid theft and to make sure the screen is safe from any harm. I enjoyed my time there where I worked with other production team that really good and professional team. After 3 days I was there, there is no problem at all. I learn how to mix the video signal from one BNC cable to the router/adapter to be separated to other BNC cable. The last day the convocation was finished at 12:00 pm and we start to pack up our screens and equipment to the lorry. I helped the production team to pack their system since my job was done quicker than i thought. I realized some of the small Malaysian's production is actually pretty good and really professional when handling such an big event.

Then, my next job is at Stadium Putra Bukit Jalil in Kuala Lumpur where i was assigned as a technical crew for RTM. I was assigned to layered the cable to use for the Malaysia Invasion Mixed Martial Art Championship 2015. We arrived at the location in the morning the day before the event going to be live. Due to some circumstances during the setup where the power supply cant provide the light the setup was delayed because we cant see the cable route. The next day, fortunately the power supply was fixed and we able to layered the cable before the event started in the night. We layered the cable through the cable's route from the control room to the camera. At night when the event started I assisted the cameraman to handle the cable while he walk around the fighting ring. Again, fortunately the cameraman give me the chance to operate my first handheld camera to give the live feed during the fighting event was going. It was a big knowledge for me to know how to handle and feel how to operate a handheld camera. This is the second camera that i was given chance to operate after the Jimmy Jib's camera. The event was held about 3 hours and half. After the event was finished we roll the cable back to the cable's drum and pack our gear. We heading home at 12;00 midnight.

My next job is at Putrajaya where the BSN Marathon was held. The event is started at 14:00 pm. The camera was Panasonic 350 2 units and one set of Go Pro Hero 4. We go there with one car and two motorbike where the motorbike going to be used to follow the marathon runners. But unfortunately, the event was cancelled in the last minute due to the extreme haze. But the event that was held like the booth, performances, is really enjoyable and delightful. After the marathon was cancelled we only asked by BSN to provide the footage from the stage's performances , booth and so on. After that, we pack our equipment and head straight to Jelas Juta .
