This is what photographers and videographers do on a lazy Sunday afternoon:
2.00pm - Meet at a cafe and have a teh tarik. Discuss for an hour or so what we should do, where to shoot and where to makan...
3.00pm - Arrive at restaurant, have 'lunch' then off to shoot random stuff all round Brunei.
Here's a very short film clip of our day out.. enjoy :)

Holy Crap.. this movie is one of the best I've seen for a while. It's classy, has a great plot, and an anime to boot. The english version has Daniel Craig voicing the main character too.... sizzling 5 kickass stars for this little french gem.Labels: YouTube
Pre Wedding Interview and Music Video
Monday, January 01, 2007
As promised, here's the pre-wedding video I mentioned to you about which I shot a couple of weeks ago. It was done for Yusra and Dahlia who got married on the 1st of January 2007 and I promised them I would only put this up into public domain after they have shown it at their wedding. I shot this at Empire Hotel for just under 45 minutes of raw footage edited into a 10 minute clip. You'll see a 6 minute interview followed by a 4 minute wedding music video with the couple. This short clip was transferred onto DVD for the couple and was shown during the reception on a big screen with a projector. I don't know the couple per se but the groom is the son of a colleague and friend of mine so when she mentioned her son was getting married, I offered to help shoot the video for them as a favour.
Couples and Husband&Wives-to be, if any of you are interested in doing something similar, just email me. After having done this video, I've got a pretty good idea on how to jazz up the next one with tighter editing, more raw footage and staged settings, as well as additional supers (text on the video) and motion graphics shot at different locations and times of day..

This is EVEN cooler. This is a MUST see... trust me.. This guy's Matt. He got this idea from a friend and on one of his travels round the world, he decided to dance in every place he visited. When he finished his trip, a chewing gum company in the US called Stride called him up and offered him another Round the World ticket so that he can do it all over again for their company.. Lucky git!!!

I was surfing YouTube today and stumbled across this. As YouTube begins to gain more popularity and have access to hundreds of millions of people, we will definitely see more of this type of advertising. YouTube and other similar websites are really changing the face of marketing and advertising and for consumers like us, there's nothing better than having access to globalisation enabled, brainwashing, subliminal messages, embedded in these ads. At the click of a button, and by-demand too. Basically TV on Tap. Can't complain really.
Now if only TelBru can get their act together and provide a stable connection so my TV show doesn't start and stop every 2 seconds.....

Came across this ad which was featured on the front page of YouTube. Amazing and beautiful .. and the edit... oh wow... if I can do this, I can quit my day job, seriously.. Those flickers you see on the ad.. I can get them online and add it to my videos, but it will cost me a couple of hundreds for the flicker pack of maybe 2 to three flickers... not cheap, but extremely cool effects... something for the future, currently safely bookmarked and snugly kept in my shopping wish list...Enjoy the Red.. ermm I mean Ad...

Here it is folks. The ad for Icklebooks. Now this ad is not the one that we initially talked about shooting. The scenes for this ad was shot during the opening of Icklebooks last Sunday 19th November 2006. There were alot of people that day and a ton of kids enjoying the books and crayons and toys. When I edited the ad, I was careful not to have too many full face shots of kids in case the parents of the kids might not like that they're posted on YouTube. The kids you see are kids of close friends (and our daughter) and one or two, I sincerely hope the parents won't mind too much.Before I shot the ad I knew which piece of music I already wanted to use. A friend of mine had sent me an advert with the same music earlier and when I saw it I thought it was wonderful, full of serenity and the mood and feel of the music would fit into the sort of advert I wanted this one to have. The music is called Little Star by Stina Nordenstam from the Romeo and Juliet movie soundtrack (a movie which I absolutely love - not just cos Claire Danes is in it). The ad was edited to capture the mood of the bookstore, the kids and them having fun (which they did!). In any case, enough ranting from me, I hope you enjoy the ad....
EDITED (21st November 2006): I have received ALOT of feedback regarding the lack of titles to explain the ad, and as a result they did not know what the ad was for. I would appreciate any feedback viewers can provide. I am going to start working on putting some titles into the ad and it will be re-uploaded when it is done. However it may take a few days to think up WHAT magic words and phrases to put into the ad.... so stay tuned.....

This is pretty funny by a guy called Hossan Leong from Singapura. His site is here but it seems to be out of commission for the time being. We need more artists of this sort in Brunei to make Brunei a more interesting place. We also need more artistic freedom to liven up our abode of peace, which apparently according to Singaporeans are a little boring... Anyway, enjoy the video and wait for the song to come along...
