Acknowledgement from a friend of mine.

It was quite an honor to actually hear someone praising your work and best of all from someone who knows so much about camera works and ground work at shooting set. I am truly honored with that acknowledgement. I guess that will be the cue for me to work even harder on my production.

One thing that is really important for me is reading. I had so much to catch up and learning in using new system and I am sensing and have a very strong feeling that I will be dealing with another different types of equipment and it will be another different level all together. However for me, the final outcome is very much important and I will make sure that will be my strong point.

By the way, yesterday I've attended KENTE Season 2 preliminary brainstorming session. Among those who've attended that session were Mr. Mark, Mr. Carlix, Mr. George, Mr. Jason Jay, another guy whom I forgot what's his name was and myself. It was a fruitful one and I am looking forward of commercializing KE and I can say this "IT'S ABOUT TIME MARK!" hehehhehe

p/s: currently doing some post production for Mr. Usal Jon Gavis. Can't wait for this to finish.

Wilfred and Claire - Forever in my life (Pre Wedding MV)

I think it's been a while since my last posting. I just finish the offline post production of the Pre Wedding MV for Mr. Wilfred Kaibal and Claire Michael. It has been great and I am quite satisfied with this work. So for you folks out there, I would like to present to you, Mr. Kaibal and Ms. Claire's Pre Wedding MV.

Photo shoot clips

I do not know what came over me that time that I suddenly had this imagination of how will it turn out if I do a coverage on photo shoot session. I often saw clips on tv and i really liked it. After seeing so many DSLR enthusiast posting up their end product in FB, I start telling myself maybe it would be nice if I did a video clip on photo shoot session. 

So I asked permission from my friend (GOGDS PHOTOGRAPHY) if I can tag along to do a video shoot. He said it would be a great idea and I could take this opportunity to add into my collections of what I am capable of doing to show to my client next time. 

So on the 1st photo shoot session, I was with George and Mailson. Mailson brought Ms. Elevetha Wanda as the guest model for the photo shoot session. Here is the video that I have done for them.

The next one is with 3 guest models (Ms. Nancy, Ms. Emily and Ms. Jacynta) Here's the video

 

So far I have some good response on the clip, however, I am still trying to improve it. Anyway enjoy the videos.

Updates

The Tampasak Production is officially open for business. I can't wait to get started on a new project. An artist has stepped forward and put his trust in me to produce his MTV. Will do my very best to provide an excellent production. Will show some teaser to this project once it's started.

For the past few weeks, I was called to do some live coverage for Pertisa Sugandoi 2009 which was held in Kg. Warisan Musium Sabah. From the experience that I gather, doing a live coverage and shots were not as easy as one may have thought especially when you have to do it on your own. Nevertheless, I have gained some precious experience from there.

I have here some live shots from the winner. But this is only during the heats. Will be uploading some videos pretty soon (depending on the free time I have, it's count down time for me as I am going to be a daddy soon, hehehhe.)



Last night I was doing some practice with some of the post production software. I think I did quite well..Here is the result. I made a twin of myself....it's just a 29sec clip...Enjoy



Hope you enjoy the video...See you later

Patiently waiting

While seeing people posting up their images and videos on facebook, flickr, blogs etc, I am still without any latest material to show. Right now, I let my mouth do the talking, promoting and pitching. I would like to do something but it seems that my equipment are not all here yet. I am a bit desperate to come up with something and I don't know when will I be able to come up with my own material. 

Is it true that you need to look at your competitors just to know what level you are at? Especially in this line of industry. I am figuring out what made me jumped into this industry? Nowadays I found so many contradictions within me. Deep inside my being, I want to do this for the sake of loving and learning more about videography and how I can come up with an inspiring videos that could touch thousands of heart that awaits for the next journey of their lifetime. But on the surface, I began noticing that I am comparing myself to others and trying to be on top of what they did and wanted to do even better. I am worried that these two feelings will collide and create a fraction that will someday brings effect to my passion in videography. 

Anyway, this week will be my soul searching moment where I will try to regain and rejuvenate what I think that I have lost or slowly dying for these past few weeks. 

 

Kotobian Tadau Tagayo Do Kaamatan

Tomorrow is a big day for the Kadazandusun Murut Community. It is the celebration of Pesta Kaamatan (Harvest Festival). I am excited to see the event tomorrow in KDCA.

Last night I was with the founder of Kadus Entertainment (Mark and Davelynne...George was covering something in KDCA) together with DJ Iter of Sabahan.FM, Carlix, the winner of Sugandoi 2008 with one of the finalist for Unduk Ngadau 2009 and our very own Mr. Usal Jon Gavis. We were discussing about the Kadus Entertainment Music Festival that will be held 30th May 2009, starting from 6pm onwards at the outside stage in KDCA compound. I saw the list of artist there will be around 40 artists that will be performing. That includes all the big names in Kadus Music industry. I have the opportunity to take video for them. I have a mix feeling on this. I am happy and excited to be given the honor to do this, but also sad because for sure I dun have the stage equipment to cover different angles. Each day I dreamt about having the equipment to do great videos for whatever I am doing. I have the heart and passion to do it and sometimes when I explain to people, I felt so ashamed because when I speak I say it all out with great passion and expression, but sometimes I can't but to think whether the other party share the same feelings or sentiment as I am. Maybe I am just a little needle that got lost in wide field of grass where no one even notice. I just don't know how to convince other people and I just don't know how to show them I can do it. It is a very sad story altogether. But I just have to bear with it for a while.

Anyway, I hope I can give a good expression to all the viewer after editting it. Anyway, kotobian tadau tagayo do kamaatan to everyone.take care. Like my boss said just now after meeting. Dun have to much aramaiti....ahhahahaha..careful on the road.

Saldivianna Wences

I have the privilege to become the director for Saldivianna Wences's MVs. I remembered quite well that because of her album, I decided to go into this industry that I have been keeping away my intention for so long. The funny thing is that, when I first decide to shoot for her MV, I only have my BenQ digital camera that can record video with the capacity memory of 2 Gig. hahahha...It was quite an experience. I do not have all the fancy dollies, jib, steady cam and the lots but all I have is my trusty BenQ digital camera. I know it is a joke. But I just gotta go ahead with it with what I have that time.

Here is one of the video that I shoot last year with that camera. Please be reminded that I do not have any other equipment other than my BenQ digital camera. So you can expect the output quality. So since it is Kaamatan, I am going to post this Kaamatan MV by Saldivianna Wences. Kotobian Tadau Kaamatan Toun 2009 to those who are celebrating Kaamatan

So, as you have witnessed yourself the video that I took with my BenQ Digital Camera, you can know very well that the visual quality and the audio is very low. Not to mention when I scaled it down to a smaller size which causes some drop of frame.

Anyway, please wait for my latest development and I will soon be providing you with my latest material. Till then....
