The first part of our current Asian mini-tour was spent in Singapore. In this small island country everyone seemed to have a smile glued to their face.

During our stay we met Singapore's arguably most renowned filmmaker Eric Khoo. He told us about the hassle of making his first shortfilms in the 80's and the freedom that digital equipment has given filmmakers.

We also visited the lovely people at Old School - a creative cluster situated in a bunch of buildings in central Singapore. The white coloured neighbourhood, once a methodist school for girls, is nowadays the home of art galleries, ateliers, graphic designer workplaces, fashion designer workplaces, a movie theatre and much more. The founder Mabel Tay explained the idea behind Old School and why she thinks creative collectives bring new perspectives to work and art.

We also interviewed Felix Ng - art director, content creator and chain-smoker. Check out his work here.

Next stop: Tokyo.
