Singapore
Born in Singapore, Aaron had his first acting experience at 15 years old as an extra on Okto’s ‘GX5’. While pursuing his Diploma In Media Studies and Management at Nanyang Polytechnic, he continued acting in his free time with a supporting role in Okto’s ‘The Specials’ telemovie as well as the lead role in a short film, ‘Eve’s Apple’, that was submitted to the 48 Hour Film Project. In the latter, he won the award for Best Actor in the Singapore leg of the competition. Aaron was also a host for an NYPtv segment, ‘The Movie Musketeers’, for 2 seasons and hosted a few episodes of the NYPtv magazine program, ‘NYP On Air’, during his time at the polytechnic. After completing National Service, he continued to work as an actor while pursuing a Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology Bachelor of Communications degree at the Singapore Institute of Management. During this time, he gained more experience with roles in television shows, a telemovie, commercials and corporate videos. Upon completing his studies, Aaron landed his first recurring role in Mediacorp Channel 5’s first long-form drama, ‘Tanglin’, and worked on numerous television shows like Mata Mata, Whispers of the Dead, Left Behind and Premonition. In 2017, Aaron got his first role as a main cast member in Mediacorp Channel 5’s Faculty and continued having more prominent roles on shows like Silo, Code of Law 4 and Fam.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
