4. Me, me, me….all ME baby!
-Mike Huynh; Editor, Small Talker/Contributor for ‘The Champion’,
‘West is Rock’ Editorial/Media Team member, Sir3n Editorial Contributor, Lover,
Pimp Intern and Women’s Rights Activist
Some people love to talk themselves up. I’m not one of them. I prefer to write myself up. In keeping
with that egotistical ritual, I (Micahel Huynh) will be leading the kick-ass editorial division at Rumble Pictures to bring
you the best and the most fresh-out-of-oven news directly to your monitors. Read with caution ladies and gents as your screens
will steam upon reading my words.
In all seriousness though, you guys will be hearing regular updates through my spontaneous column in regards
to anything press release or editorial related. My role will most probably involve convening with all divisions of Rumble
Pictures to get you guys properly exposed to the wider community within legal avenues. My role will also be to maintain the
integrity of this e-letter and to recap past vital events.
Other than that, Rumble Pictures have given me two email accounts; one for Editorial enquiries (10Mb) and
the other for Complaints (2Gb). Go figure. Peace out people and hope to still be employed by the next Issue 002!!!
5. Rumble Pictures Fortnightly Meetings
The inaugural kick start of the ‘Maximum Choppage: Round 2’ meetings
have commenced with overwhelming support. The coincidence of a premiere night showcasing the work of Rumble Pictures; Past,
Present and Future, involved the screening of the original and ‘Short Cuts’ Award Winning ‘Maximum Choppage’
followed by ‘Project Vengeance’ and a much anticipated secret project set to hit production in 2007.
The first meeting had commenced with style and glamour as members dined on awesome
mini-whiches and drinks prepared by mum – oops I mean, Maria Tran. Signs, portfolios, memorabilia, photos and name tags
were all prepared and compiled by the efforts of Maria so round of applause for her!
Naturally, there were late runners albeit sober and drunk, which made the first meeting one to remember. Although
still possessing some hope that this will be a regular average-joe meeting, the television and DVD player were both reluctant
to let this be on Premiere night (Insert image of Tim about to roundhouse kick technology in the googlies here).
Eventually the night was a runaway success when audiences were feasted with an
eyeful of Rumble Pictures credibility. Congratulations on this milestone team!!! Hopefully one of many to come!
The next Rumble Pictures meeting will be schedule within the coming week.
If you have any interests in Graphic design/ web design/ photography/ marketing/ acting or would just like to find out more
about what this is all about feel free to contact Maria Tran to find out further details. See Below
