SORIENT SDN BHD

Assalamualaikum,

Pameran fotografi oleh pelajar Diploma Eksekutif Fotografi Kreatif dan Pengimejan Digital UTMSpace (EDICPADI) kini melangkah kali ke 3. Ia merupakan sebahagian daripada kurikulum pengajian dan seluruh penganjuran serta pengendaliannya diuruskan oleh para pelajar berkaitan. Mereka diberi peluang dan ruang untuk mempamerkan hasil fotografi sepanjang sesi pembelajaran mereka dan seterusnya mempromosikan bakat, pengetahuan dan kemahiran yang telah dipelajari.

Alhamdulillah, pameran kali ini dapat dilaksanakan oleh 17 orang pelajar yang berdedikasi. Walaupun mereka adalah pelajar separuh masa, sibuk dengan tugas hakiki di tempat kerja masing-masing, namun komitmen yang mereka tunjukkan adalah amat membanggakan. Penganjuran dan pengendalian program seperti ini amat menuntut komitmen tinggi, bermula daripada pembinaan konsep pameran, penghasilan produk pameran berkualiti, mendapatkan tajaan daripada beberapa syarikat besar, membuat pemasaran untuk menjemput pengunjung dan seterusnya merangka itinerari pameran bukanlah satu kerja yang mudah. Malah mereka melakukan semua ini dalam kerangka sebagai pelajar separuh masa. Tahniah diucapkan kepada mereka. Semoga usaha gigih mereka ini dapat mengagumkan anda.

Kejayaan pengedalian pameran ini melambangkan bahawa kursus EDICPADI telah berjaya mencungkil, memupuk dan membina kemahiran para pelajar yang melibatkan bukan sahaja dari segi fotografi, malah kemahiran organisasi serta kerja secara berpasukan. Ia juga diharapkan dapat memberi inspirasi dan membuka hasrat kepada mereka yang berminat untuk mengikuti kursus fotografi.

Di akhir kata-kata aluan ini, bagi pihak pengendali kursus, saya ingin mengucapkan berbanyak terima kasih kepada En. Hafiz dari Nimonic Capacity kerana telah menaja percetakan bahan pameran pada kali ini. Beliau juga merupakan bekas pelajar Sorient Sdn Bhd yang telah berjaya mendapat kelas pertama bersama 8 orang pelajar lain pada Majlis Penyampaian Diploma yang lalu.

Berbanyak terima kasih juga kepada para pensyarah yang telah memainkan peranan yang sangat penting dalam membentuk sahsiah pelajar dan tidak jemu-jemu berkongsi ilmu pengetahuan.

His interest on photography is to document humanity, social issues, and religion. His work has been published extensively, including in Guardian, Corbis, Daily Mail UK, Jessica Men Malaysia, The Star, Scanpix Denmark, Zoom Ediciones, Averbode Uitgerverij.

Faith and Honour puts forward the issues which hover over the head covering worn in public by some Muslim women or hijab donned my Muslim women to protect their demureness. The steadfast Khairil Safwan challenged himself to discover the regimes of the Muslim women in his place of birth. The clandestine nature of hijab is acknowledged. Nevertheless, this young enthusiast valiantly dwells in this secret to enhance his knowledge in the aforementioned faith and honour which have long been close at heart and uphold by his adored mother, cherished sisters, respected neighbours and all the women who have walked into his life. Hijab is only a symbolic depiction of a religious decree. The actual faith and honour lies in the women themselves which should be discovered to see the beauty in the religious code that governs the wearing of such clothing. Faith and Honour opens the door to a more intimate viewpoint of a Muslim woman’s private life and what she chooses to adhere. The strength of faith in a Muslim woman will ensure the eternal demureness ages and ages hence.

‘It is photography that found him’, are the appropriate sentence to describe about him on how it all began.Started as a hobby and learn through photography magazines and the internet to some extent,open his mind and realize that photography is endless.He also believe that photography should get away from the norm and make room for something new and different from common. Was impressed by the work of Pro foreign photographers he was very eager to try new concepts without regard criticism. A word ’Wow’ from the audience is more than enough to give satisfaction and made him feel very much appreciated.

Photography should not only be fulfilling but also exciting to explore. This is the impulse for this photographer’s creative work. He adopted the Macro Photography panache which depicts still life pictures merged into one. The use of natural textures in the things around us is added to create both ‘feeling’ and ‘soul’ to a masterpiece. Life and death of animals and insects, which we come

across on a daily basis is the subject that he found most intriguing to be translated in the form of a

photograph. Through the Life and Death series, Mazlan uncovers the coexistence of insects,

mollusks and mankind. Mankind definitely takes these creatures’ existence for

granted. Thus the series hope to evoke a feeling of responsibility among us

towards these insignificant creatures finally.

Fashion is defined as the state of being popular at a particular time or place in terms of clothes, hair etc. Fashion is observed by all in order to gain positive vibes or attention regardless of age or status. Here clothes are portrayed as the medium of getting these positive vibes. In the world of photography, fashion is not only appreciated but also inspires. The fashion observed in the sport of fighting with long thin swords or fencing is highlighted in my work. Fencing triggers fashion in my head. The similarity can be seen in both. Both are at its best when they

are always new and swift in nature.

Amran Yahaya began to show a deep interest in photography when he joined his school’s photography club and took photos for its magazine.Being an Architectural 3D Visualizer based in Kuala Lumpur, he slowly develops a passion for street portraiture, travel and journalistic photography.

And building such a portfolio is what he aspires to do.

The Temuan project revolves around the day-to-day lives of the Temuan indigenous tribe in Kampung Tekir, Negeri Sembilan. Unlike some Temuan settlements which have been relocated by propertydevelopers, the settlers, consisting of approximately 150 families, in the Labu district still enjoy the liberty to live their lives to their hearts content. They are free to roam and hunt in the neighbouring forest and enjoy the day’s catch, at home with family and friends. Their off-the-cuff and open attitudes towards life never fail to make me feel at home every time. Traditions and values are the essence of this tribe. Though conservative at heart, and in so many ways, they still aspire to advance and walk hand- in-hand with the country’s development. My Tekir experience is priceless. Thus, I would like to express my heartiest gratitude to these estimable individuals who are always accommodating during

my humble journey, namely Tok Batin Sturi, Cikgu Rindu, Cikgu Asmah, Pakcik Lan, Les and not

forgetting all the children and valued friends in Tekir for their assistance and affability

which has never failed to inspire me.

Born in Kluang, Johor, Rosdin Sabni, 32 years, currently is working as a Journalism Photographer with public service since four years ago.

‘Passion’ is a distinct characteristic that not every person has the opportunity to experience. When one is said to have passion, that means that this person is driven and full of enthusiasm. ‘Passion’ can be expressed in many different ways, and in many different situations. ‘Passion’ is described as a powerful emotion, such as love, hate, joy, or anger. Anyone can be joyful, but when someone is passionately joyful, it takes the meaning of “joyful” to a whole new level. A person can “fly into a passion,” meaning they are experiencing intense rage and emotion. A person described as “passionate” is generally very motivated, enthusiastic, and full

of life. Doing what you love and doing what is parallel with your purpose, will be the thing that will motivate you to jump out of bed in the morning and look forward to the day ahead. Your work is not “work” when it is exciting,

rewarding and interesting to you. It’s not a “job” but a passion.

Born and bred in Kluang, Johor in 1975, Lokman Sokran was first introduced to the wonders of photography in March 2011. This was when he enrolled in the Diploma in Executive Photography and Digital Imaging course, one of the courses offered in relation to photography. This turn of event in his life took him further into the world of photography. An aspiring graphic designer, he adores the artistic world. He is inspired by not only humanity and social themes but also beyond these in his art.

In his Aurat series he explores the issues which linger around the word aurat (ornament or shame), as mentioned in the holy Quran. In the Quran, a Muslimah’s (Muslim woman) physique must be shielded, protecting her from undesirable gazes. Ideally, this shield, in the form of hijab and covered clothing, has the goal towards preventing any Muslim women from becoming a sexual entity. In his attempt to do this, he cleverly compares this religious significance to the nature of a mannequin. Here, Lokman nurtures the true meaning of

freedom. He also raised another interesting issue in which he explores what is aurat

among Muslim Women. Clad in body hugging attires, they appear “naked” just like the

mannequin as suggested in the snapshots. In ‘Aurat’, Lokman Sokran hopes to share dynamic views on the matter to a more far-reaching audience. This is where he successfully choreographed the question of whether donning the hijab nowadays is a shariah compliant way of dressing or a sign of protest against the ruling of Islam. Aurat will share the answers.

Women & Shades : The two magical words in any woman’s vocabulary. Women are thrilled by the thought of fashion, brands, clothes, handbags, shoes and accessories. Being the fairest of all is theepitome of a woman’s fashion aspiration. Parallel to this is the wisdom in shades or colour in every attempt to look her best. Every victory in looking the fairest of all is dedicated to her ability in making the perfect choice in colour and what the colour signifies. Her look is her self-portrait. Both women and shades complement each other impeccably.

Following that, he developed greater interest in this field when he attended the Photography Course conducted by the Bukit Aman branch of Polis Di- Raja Malaysia.

concern for the need to preserve nature is evident in her work entitled ‘Hues of

Nature.’ Here, he do not want to depicts nature’s beauty being destroyed, but

Photojournalism is one of his favourite genre in photography. It helps him to express his personal views towards some issues or events. It also shares his feeling to the audience and let them see from his point of view. But the most important is, he will be able to bring and show his audience the actual things that happened in the event where they are not able to go or be in. His name is Muhammad Heza Zainudin, a 28 years old and born in Kuala Lumpur.

Kuala Lumpur is the dream destination for the younger generations to make it big in the city. However, this is not true to a greenhorn name Adi Fikri. He decided to no longer be part of the famed city’s hustle and bustle, fortune and fame and glorified stories. He chose to return to his beloved fatherland Masjid Tanah where he ventured into goat farming. Moved by this young entrepreneur’s enthusiasm, Muhammad Heza recorded the youth’s daily routine in running the farm without any assistance. The Young Sheperd is a depiction of the courageous young man who chose not to live comfortably in a big city but slog under the sun to get what he needs for himself and his family. This courage should be lauded and trailed by all youths.
