Be the Change!

‘The only constant in the world is change.’

As much as the abovestatement is true, the below statement is equally true.

‘People are resistent to change.’

So why is the vast majority of people resistent to change? There can be a variety of reasons. It can be due to the individual being in his / her comfort zone and see no need to change. Afterall, why disrupt and change something that is working perfectly well for you?

In recent times, companies tend to embrace change better. Especially with the increase in design knowledge, it can be seen that there is an increase in the number of companies who embrace change. One good example is how there is an increasing number of companies going through re-branding exercise.

With this positive towards change, in one of our recent projects with the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO), Public Service Division (PSD), TILT is assisting PSD, through the conducting of photoshoot that produces photographs of high visual impact and designing of the posters, to promote PS21 officers who had embraced change and ambassadors of change. They lead by example and create the difference to their colleagues, their organisation and in some instances, to Singapore.

They have all played their part. Will you? Be the Change!

Intense in the Spirit of Sports

Sports in Singapore had always needed a boost. In a sport like Paintball, the support and boost needed is definitely much more. For paintball, the main competition in Singapore is the Singapore Paintball Novice Series (SPNS). Through this platform, the Paintball Association (Singapore) (PBAS) tries to garner as much support and publicity for the sport.

TILT had been very fortunate to be part of this competition since its birth. We witness the spirit of the sportsmen. The intensity and determination of the administrators and sportsmen, the teamwork, grace and gull of the paintballers are definitely worth applauding. All feelings and emotions can be aptly displayed through the photograph taken below during SPNS Leg 1, where we see a paintballer intense in winning at all cost against the backdrop of the SPNS logo.

We feel so much for the photograph and the sport that we had also submitted this photograph for a local competition, YEOS H20 Ultimate Photography Challenge, and we had since been shortlisted as one of the finalist. The photograph is open for voting and if you feel the same way as we do, do cast a vote for us.

The entry is aptly titled, ‘Intensity’.

The Lion Story

15th August 2009 was a special day. Not only was it a day where One World – One Day – One Photo : Saturday August 15th 2009 is happening, it is also the day where The Lion Story was performing at Esplanade Outdoor Theatre.

One World – One Day – One Photo : Saturday August 15th 2009 is a project that hopes to gather contributors from ALL OVER THE WORLD in a visual celebration of the world we live in. The countries which have signed up to date are Denmark, South Africa, USA, Canada, Trinidad & Tobago, Hong Kong, Croatia, Australia, UK, Latvia, Singapore, New Zealand, Taiwan, Faroe Islands, Chile, Iceland, Sweden, Egypt, Russia, China, Turkey, France, Japan, Tunisia, Norway, Israel, Colombia, Saudi Arabia, Brazil, Netherlands, Finland, Bahrain, Azerbaijan, Greece, Belgium and Barbados.

From TILT’s perspective, we felt that it was apt to let the world hear about the lion’s story (Singapura is also known as the lion city) and with that, we submitted a photograph of a local band, The Lion Story, who was performing that night at Esplanade Outdoor Theatre. The Lion Story is a local band that had beneffitted from NOISE Singapore’s The Apprenticeship Programme. We hope the photograph do make the mark to be published in the photography book so that the world can hear the lion roar.

We all sat down together to check out the pics TILT shot, and we were really amazed at the quality and expression in the pictures you’ve captured! Thanks so much mannn! You’re awesome!

The Lion Story

Below is the photograph that was submitted and we hope the world loves the photograph taken as much as The Lion Story does.

Lose to Win!

How can you win by losing? Health Promotion Board (HPB) together with its partners demonstrates this through the ‘Lose to Win’ Challenge in this year’s National Healthy Lifestyle Campaign.

In Singapore, obesity among adults aged 18 – 69 have been increasing steadily from 5.1% in 1992 to the 6.9% in 2004. Although this figure is still considered low, HPB is concerned as there can be adverse health consequences associated with obesity, such as diabetes, hypertension, coronary heart disease, certain cancers and osteoarthritis.

For the National Healthy Lifestyle Campaign 2009, HPB, together with its partners, put obesity in the limelight to raise awareness and motivate people towards healthy lifestyle practices. This 3-month long campaign will kick-off with the “Lose to Win” Challenge for workplaces. The challenge aims to inspire & motivate groups of employees to lose weight the healthy way through the provision of an effective structured programme.

After a four-year absence from the last coverage of the National Healthy Lifestyle Campaign 2005, TILT is proud to be the Official Photographers and Videographers for National Healthy Lifestyle Campaign 2009.
