Terang Films Recognised by ASEAN Records for Redefining Action Filmmaking Through Unprecedented End-to-End Production Leadership

ASEAN Records is proud to officially recognise Terang Films for achieving the milestone, as the: First Action Film in Asia Produced End-to-End by a Single Filmmaker Performing the Highest Number of Professional Roles during production phase, Featuring Multi-Country Filming with Integrated Military and Tactical Elements for Cinema Release (Equivalent to a standard action-film crew of over 100 professional positions across more than ten core production departments, with filming conducted in 3 countries)

This landmark recognition highlights an extraordinary achievement in Asia’s film industry, marking a rare convergence of creative vision, technical mastery, and operational leadership within a single production model.

Redefining Action Filmmaking Through Singular Vision and Execution

Terang Films has distinguished itself through an unconventional yet highly disciplined approach to action filmmaking, led by a single filmmaker who assumed an unprecedented number of professional roles typically distributed across large-scale production teams.

The recognised project required responsibilities equivalent to more than 100 standard action-film crew positions across over ten core production departments, spanning directing, producing, creative coordination, technical execution, logistics, and on-ground operational management. Filmed across three countries, the production further integrated military and tactical elements, adding authenticity and complexity while meeting the demands of cinema-ready release standards.

This achievement demonstrates not only creative ambition, but also exceptional production discipline, cross-functional expertise, and the ability to execute complex, multi-country filmmaking at a professional cinematic level.

The ASEAN Records recognition affirms Terang Films’ leadership in expanding what is possible within Asian action cinema, setting a new benchmark for end-to-end production capability.

A Landmark Moment of Recognition

The ASEAN Records certificate was officially presented on 18 December 2025 during the ASEAN Records 7th Gather of Achievers at Pavilion Bukit Jalil.

The ASEAN Records certificate was proudly received by Mohamad Azlan Bin Norani, Executive Producer & Director, together with Mastyara Binti Ramli, Executive Producer, in recognition of their leadership and the exceptional production execution behind this historic filmmaking achievement.

Voices of Leadership

Reflecting on the recognition, Mohamad Azlan Bin Norani, Executive Producer & Director of Terang Films, shared:

“This recognition by ASEAN Records represents years of discipline, resilience, and belief in doing things differently. Taking on multiple professional roles across countries and production departments was not about scale alone, but about accountability to the story, the craft, and the cinematic standard we wanted to achieve. We hope this milestone inspires filmmakers to explore new production possibilities while staying committed to quality and execution.”
