As the world moved into the new millennium, Kenny made his move into the Industry. Kenny has set standards in Malaysia and in the International arena with recognitions as early as 2001.
From humble beginnings to stardom, work of any genius can only be recognized through time, pain, dedication, sweat, and can only be executed through Passion. Kenny has set the benchmark for competition, and is still breathing to be an example to the industry. Amongst some of his remarkable works are:
- 2001 - “Nian”, an EON CNY campaign commercial which was recognized by Creativity 31 award.
- 2002 - Beer 333, Vietnam. Nominated in the Malaysian Video Awards for Best Foreign Director Category.
As Kenny was creating his path, more is always what Kenny seeks. More means better. More means raising the bar. More was what he found in Vietnam. In 2006, he ventured into Ho Chi Min City, and as the film industry benefited from his signature (his unique character and direction in film production), 3 TV programs were successfully produced (amongst other commercial works). Success in the TV programs was only possible as Kenny brought the touch of Malaysia and Singapore to the pleasure of Vietnam. Amongst the formats used to give Vietnam the change in the arena was:
Malaysia:
1. 3R
2. 123 baby
Singapore:
1. Say I do
This goes to show that vivid ideas are not constraint ideas. Vivid ideas goes with breath and depth. The ability to recognize a great idea, and the ability to envision its execution. The ability needed in any Film Director.
In 2009, Malaysia had long been too quiet. Kenny was called home. We needed talents to raise the bar. Awards don’t come cheap. It doesn’t come easy. Standards need to be set. Kenny had to do what he did best, and set the bench mark for the young. Amongst the many commercials, Kenny successfully directed 2 TV programs for the heart of Malaysia.
1. Fashion De Raya, RTM
2. Aktiv TV MTV, Astro 108
There are many successes to a man’s life. Many are contented. Many plateau after several awards. Many, not Kenny.
