Director Statement

Helo is my 2nd short film with the Singapore Airforce. The support they gave us in providing the aircraft and security access was extremely privileged. The story I crafted revolved around an interesting engineer's perspective on problem solving and how the lead character Charlene approached this issue. I hope you will enjoy the short film as much as I have enjoyed making it!
