For the first time ever a woman was crowned the winner of Paspot to Fame (P2F) last night at a jam-packed Jerudong Ampitheatre.

The Ampitheatre was full to brim with enthusiastic P2F fans, who watched as Ryatul managed to succeed in having her name in lights once the results had been announced, as she walked away with not only the honour of being crowned the new P2F Champion, but of being the first female to do so. She was also eliminated in the semi-finals of the competition but was voted back.

Her prize came in the form of a brand new Toyota Avanza, $3,000 in cash, a 42" Phillips LED TV, Fitness Zone membership for two, a Samsung mobile phone and a $100 Ideal voucher.

In an interview with the Bulletin, Ryatul said, "I am so happy! I was so surprised when they called my name, because there was such strong competition."

Asked what her plans are for the future, she said, "I want to be active in singing. InsyAllah I'll be able to record an album and singles, and continue with music."

She also said that she felt "proud" to be the first-ever female champion of P2F, and that the biggest lesson she had learned from being in P2F was, "Discipline. Being disciplined in training, singing, attitude, image, etc".

In second place came Rinaz, who walked away with $2,000 in cash, a Micro System, a Samsung mobile phone, membership for two at Fitness Zone and a $100 voucher at Ideal.

Third place was given to Mienul, who won $1,000 in cash, a DVD Player, a Samsung mobile phone, Fitness Zone membership for two and a $100 Ideal voucher.

The remaining contestants to receive consolation prizes were Fiq, Neff, Azim and Shah.

In an interview with P2F judge Hans Anwar, he said, "It was Ryatul who I had expected to win, though the full results were not as I expected, based on the judging, but obviously the SMS votes have played a big role."

"However, the Top Seven was pretty much what we expected, based on progress and popularity," he said.

Speaking about Ryatul, he said, "Somebody should grab her to do a single or an EP. I'm sure there will be lots of producers looking to work with her."

Present as the guest of honour at the event to present the prizes to the contestants was Pg Abd Haris bin Pg Shabudin, Permanent Secretary at the Prime Minister's Office. With him was the Acting Director of RTB, Hj Idris bin Hj Md Ali.

After the show, tokens of appreciation were presented in a brief ceremony to sponsors and officials at the event.

My prediction didn't turn out right but only half did. The 2nd last concert was so-so but it was nice to see some performance from last year's contestants. Most of them have really matured, singing wise that is, and sometimes I wonder where do they go from here or they are just singing for fun. Actually it will be nice if the winner(s) get a record label and see where they go from there.

Azim's points seemed to have dropped from previous weeks though it was better than last week. Dewi pointed out his weakness tends to be his low notes which he needs to work on. He scored 24 points. Mienul had an ok performance but some areas were flat as pointed out by the judges. He had the lowest points of the lot - 22.5 points. Next was Fiq and he sang "I'm Yours" which was easily a crowd favourite but Dewi believed that Fiq should give at least 150% to make it more entertaining. He scored 24.5 points.

Rinaz had the biggest pop of the night but strangely she didn't do much in terms of showmanship. Imagine if she actually put in more effect. She will definitely win more fans than before. She scored the highest with 25.5 points. Ok, this one was probably the toughest of the lot. Neff chose to sing "Listen" by Beyonce but to be fair to him, this song is very tricky and Hans Anwar pointed out that it's not far to compare him with Beyonce but saluted him for being original in his way. He scored 23 points. Ryatul was the final performer and it was first time that she sang an English song in the competition. She still lack showmanship on stage but she did reasonably well. She bagged 23.5 points.

So here are my thoughts why both Neff and Ryatul didn't make it to the finals. Well, Neff chose a tough song and if he was able to capitalise on that, he will probably earned more points.. As for Ryatul, maybe an English song is a bad omen for her.. She has been one of the most consistent performer, averaging in the 25s but she fell short. Then again, the SMS voters do make a difference in their journeys..

There's one concert left and it will the final weekend of May.. And the organiser has mentioned that you still can vote back two contestants back into the finals.. So who will be the lucky two from the possible eight contestants? I'm sure the guys will be dying for Eqah to return back to the competition.. So guys, keep them votes coming and the last time to vote them back is the 19th of May if I'm not mistaken.

Dumped - favourites Shah and Eqah By Syafiq Affendy

2010-05-17T00:10:00.000-07:00

A surprising end to the 8th P2F concert last Saturday shocked the audience, as crowd favourites Shah and Eqah were eliminated, leaving six contestants to battle it out in the next concert on May 15.

Permanent judge Hans Anwar joined by two new faces Dewi Hairani and Shahrizan Masri.

Permanent judge Hans Anwar, joined by two new faces - local vocal coach, singer and actress Dewi Hairani, and also radio DJ cum-television presenter- composer-singer Shahrizan Masri - criticised the contestants for choosing the wrong songs in the 'Favourite Hits' themed concert.

Fiq survived as the judges gave him a 26.5 after singing Ceria by Indonesian band J-Rocks, followed by Rinaz and her rendition of Milik Siapakah Gadis Ini by Dato Siti Nurhaliza/Sudirman with 24.5 points, and Neff's singing of Tekad by Malaysian artist Hazami won him 24 points.

Other results were Ryatul singing Aku Wanita Biasa (Kris Dayanti) - 21.5, Shah with Cinta Monyet (Goliath) - 22, Azim with Jangan Bersedih Lagi (Anuar Zain) - 22, Eqah with Sick & Tired (Anastacia) - 23, and finally, Mienul singing Leaving On A Jet Plane (Glee Cast) - 21.5.

Eqah and Shah (center) were on top of the SMS ranking at the beginning of the 8th P2F concert, but both of them ended up being eliminated. - PHOTOS: SYAFIQ AFFENDY

The top six will now slug it out for a place in the final to be held on 29 May 2010 at Jerudong Park Amphitheatre. For more information on the song list and pictures from past concerts, log on to www.p2fbrunei.com. However, rather than the usual 8pm slot, this Saturday's concert will start at 7.45pm at Dewan Raya RTB, 'live' telecast on RTB2.

Even though Eqah and Shah were on top of the SMS ranking at the start of the concert, both ended up being eliminated. 'Over confident' or 'forgot to vote' may serve as a reminder to the remaining contestants and their fans, to be not complacent.

Last week's guest artist was the second runner-up of the inaugural season of P2F 2005, Juju. When asked by host Fakhrul Razi to give advice to her juniors, she stressed them to 'just be yourself'.

Dewi does 007 theme. A few evenings ago, Dewi the hairstylist/make-up artist groomed up a few models (Irman Hifni, Niessa Nassir and Adeq Abs) for a James Bond 007 theme. The idea of the photo shoot is to let the public aware that Dewi is capable of grooming up individuals on different themes. She already has a set of portfolios that have been published on the Internet and they looked pretty good as well.

A special mention to those involved especially the photogs - Joseph Gatz, Lee Abrio, Armie Hu, Azme Photographyworks, Millionpixel289 and Marul of Hyperclicks. And let's not forget Helmi, Dominic and Pg SAllehuddin for allowing to lend their cars for the photo shoot. Well done to the team for the great job. I managed to leave slightly early before the heavy downpour. And guys, your photos on FB are superb.

When it comes to marketing, ART is in

by Debbie Too
BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN
Saturday, December 5, 2009

HJH Dewi Hairani Hj Thani, otherwise known as "Dewi d' Diva", is making waves by setting up her own photo shoots with professional photographers in Brunei to promote her skills and services as a make-up artist. While it is not something new among professional make-up artists around the world, Dewi takes promotion and advertising to the next level for her services and it is now showing in the number of bookings she is getting based on the publicity.

"I used to promote my services through my blog, very simple blog, and take bridal pictures with my phone, so my blog was filled with bridal photos, up to the extent, I thought that it was getting boring," said Dewi.

She said that she wanted to try something new to promote her business and that was when the idea of setting up themed photo shoots and inviting Brunei's photographers be a part of it came to her.

"These themed photo shoots don't cost a lot, because I advertise through Facebook and my own blog, and then the photographers also post them on their blogs and their Facebook pages so it gets a lot of publicity," said Dewi.

"Since starting the themed photo shoots ... it gives me a chance to build my portfolio and at the same time the photographers get to build their portfolio," she said.

She said she would be a part of a local fashion show later this year and has already received an inquiry from a customer in Miri to hire her services.

She said the Internet was one of the most convenient ways of marketing her business due to the number of people who were always logged on to the Internet, Facebook specifically.

"It is so easy, everyone is on Facebook and the Internet and it is free, so I don't have to pay anything to advertise and market it. Sometimes me and my team communicate and discuss our future plans and have meetings on the Internet or Facebook because it is so convenient," she said.

She added that this is still an advertising and promotion experiment for her business and that she plans on taking her services to the next level.

"At the moment, I am just a freelancer and I have a full-time job as an art teacher, but I hope to one day to have my own salon or maybe even be a distributor or supplier of beauty and make-up products and accessories," she said.

She said Brunei is quite a competitive market, but that she sees that she can target a niche part of the fashion market by showcasing her "artistic make-up".

"I do not really see a lot of make-up artists in Brunei who are willing to go the (distance).

"They are mostly in bridal make-up and they are not fashion or artistic make-up or hairstyles, so I see this is where i can start something," she said.

While Dewi's themed photo shoots include themes such as "James Bond", or "Goth" or even fairy tale themes, she has no intention of giving up her existing clientele the brides.

"It is not difficult to do business in Brunei, because to me, every week, every year, there will always be someone getting married. So it's a good business and I am so happy to be in this line of business," she said.

She added that what's important in making her services stand out is good promotion, and that is why she will continue coming up with themed photo shoots until she feels there is a need to "try something different".

This week I am teaching my students about drawing human figures and the colouring techniques. I taught them how to observe with an artist eye. Looking at human figures from all different perspective and identifying the form from various movements. Each students are to sketch the model given from different angles and position including the shades of tones..

Other than shading, I taught them on coloring techniques which they started with learning about color theory during year 8 and now at year 9 its all down to practical and sharp observation. Their understanding of tones and mixtures from various colours. So I came up with a 20min demo for each class....

The progress of the students is considerably good. If I can have the time and energy to teach them individually it would be better but the large number of students per class has made it almost impossible to focus on them individually. I will upload a few of my students artwork soon...Well, I just hope for their PMB results to achieve the top ten!!Amiiiinnnnn....

We decided to have a black and white theme for the choir and white and grey for me and Faizal...One thing that not many people know about was that my dress was actually a recycle!! I've worn that dress about 2 years ago for my performance as a guest artist for simfoni tanahair that year. So I only bought bits and pieces of material to modify it. Now thats financial intelligence!! hehehhe..

As usual, I came up with my sketch of the design and took it to my favourite tailor Boyette. He ended up scratching his head!! heheheh.. but I trust he will manage to find ways to suit my needs as much as possible....

Checking on the progress of the dress... made a few alterations with the sleeves and collar.I was hoping that design and the colour will not make me look like an over stuffed bolster!! hehhehe... and I checked Faizal's white coat as well...It turned out really nice!!

How it turned out...

Thank you so much boyette for cracking your head on the 'never done designs before' and doing overtime to make us look super fabulous!! We apprieciate all your energy and efforts in meeting our crazy dateline...hehehe..Love your work!!

KAU PERGI SELAMANYA
Composed by: Osmali Othman
Vocals: Dewi, Faizal and the UBD vocal club

Dewi:
Di saat ku merindu
Ku memanggil oh nama mu
Semoga engkau kembali
Menjelma di ruang mata
Malam ku jadi sepi
Oh tuhan tolong diriku
Dia telah tiada
Pergi untuk selamanya
Ku Rindu...

Faizal:
Usahlah engkau sayang
Mengimpikan segala harapan
Kita tak mungkin bersama lagi
Aku telah tiada pergi untuk selamanya
Semoga di pertemukan lagi
Suatu hari nanti
Aku pasti..aku pasti

Dewi:
Maafkanlah..
Belum ku dapat terima
Pemergian..mu secara tiba-tiba

Faizal:
Oh mengapa..
Engkau tega..
Belum merelakan
Pemergian ku ini

Duet:
Ku akur...ketentuan illahi
Ku hanya mampu berdoa
Semoga engkau bahgia tuk selamanya...

Thanking God....

Alhamdulillah..syukur.. we are one of the top 10 out of 200 plus participants that has been selected for the semifinals of Simfoni Tanahair Competition 2009. 'KAU PERGI SELAMANYA' is the title of the duet song composed by my childhood friend Osmali Othman.Faizal and I were very honoured to be trusted by him to vocally represent his song our best way possible.

The song has already been composed about 3 years ago and also participated in the same competition 2 years ago but it wasn't our luck that year but I was not surprise because the quality of the demo recording was really bad...pun namanya recording sendirian berhad!!!...hehehehe
This year, we tried our luck again and this time we did proper studio recording and had backing vocals (osmali and debbie).God answered our prayers and we got in!!....yeayyyyyyy!!

OK...GO!!!...

From the 4 of us(Osmali,Faizal,Dewi and Debbie), it has now grown into a BIG family..because osmali wanted extra backups but instead of that, we got a whole choir volunteers from UBD!Thanks to debbie and faizal..especially to the vocal club of UBD for their energy, time and effort!! You guys did extremely well!!

You should listen to yourself sing now...membari 'kambang bulu'. Well, at least those were the feedbacks from the audience..Alhamdulillah...BUT from me...You've got a lot more to improvise because we all want it to be PERFECT!!right?..(Don't roll your eyes guys!)hehhe...

Osmali decided to name our group "OK GO!!" hehehhe...which consists of fabulous people namely:

left on 1st row ; alif, aini, khairy, sabrina, debbie

left on 2nd row Amy, Zekri and Zak

'O'pen your mouth....

We had our practices at UBD...at least twice a week..that was when the 'choir' realised what they got themselves into...it was not all 'FUN'..

I think it felt like a vocal bootcamp to them!

Osmali taught the harmonies in 5 parts.I taught the vocal techniques and faizal played his role on the motivation part.

It was not easy but we manage because of teamwork and the commitment from everybody, everything went smoothly as planned.

Anger, frustrations,offended, sadness, exhaustion, laughters and even being crazy!!..(Kenapa aku ani ah?...remember that?)Everything took place in that small classroom in a period of 3 weeks until the day of the semifinals...
