This is a true event between an ordinary Penang-girl with an extra ordinary cross cultural love story!  Guat Har, the BFF of my wife,  came from Penang island, who has been running her business in Indonesia for many years.  Has met his true love, a local boy Rachmad. Since then they fell in love and had now officially wedded!

Earlier this year,  we were invited to the engagement ceremony – ‘Akad Nikah’ session earlier this year in Penang.  As an invited guest and unofficial photographer with limited footage & photos, I’ve made a fusion short film for them.

Today, the story continued, ‘Ah An & Ah Har’,  the nick names of the couple, has chosen Corner Club at Gurney Drive, Penang to celebrate their wedding with relatives and friends from Penang & Indonesia.  Once again, we are there as a guests but this round, with a little helps from JM Sim, a cinematographer of Motion In Style crew, we present to you the fusion highlight for the dinner reception.

We hope you enjoy the film we made, and feel free to comment and share.

A simple but perfect celebration of love, this is a wedding held in Penang; Andy & An Sin is now happily married and officially stuck like glue!

This is the same day edit video highlight, broadcasted live during their wedding reception at E&O Hotel Penang. Shot entirely with two Nikon D7000 and some lenses. The video was arranged and edited in 4hours time.

I hope you enjoy the film and feel free to comment, stay tuned for more!

As part of my sharing of ‘video filming with HD-SLR’ to Freezed.asia members.  I am now taking order for the following equipment that are recommended for shooting video with HD-SLR.

1st in the list is the HDV-Z96 LED Video light, for just RM 220 a unit, it provide adjustable fill light constantly with just 5x AA batteries.  Come with a tilt-able shoe-to-tripod mount adaptor, a snap on light diffuser and also a warm light color gel.  You can stack many units of the light panels to form a bigger panel.  For more details on this, read this review here.

Next in the list is the Zoom H1 portable audio recorder, selling for RM 375.  Zoom H1 act as a high quality stereo Microphone as well as a standalone portable recorder.  Come with a 2Gb MicroSD card for you to start recording directly.  For more details, read from here.

Months after the short d90 video I do for fun, here I am with a brand new short video, shot entirely with a Nikon D3100 at 1080p24.  Geared with lenses like 18-55DX VR, 50mm F1.4D, 70-200 F2.8 and a 24-120VR.  Here I present to you, ‘Static . Motion’.  Have a look and feel free to comment!

Here’s a small reviews from me after using Nikon D3100 for a short while, the 2nd generation D-movie from D3100 (and D7000 also) is ways better than the old version. The rolling shutter problem is almost non-visible now.

The new expeed engine and sensor also provide a much better low light performances; the most obvious improvement I noticed is got to be the very sharp video so long that you got the right focus compare to the soft, and low detailed video from D90, D5000 and D300s.

Last but not least, I will be having a small talk on ‘video filming using SLR’ at Freezed.asia on 3rd Dec 2010 and if you are interested on the topic, feel free to join and kindly share this page to anyone who might be interested.

It has been raining for the pass few weeks and finally, the sunny day is back with a really blue sky!
While I was doing my spring cleaning at home, I decided to take a break and went to my backyard with a D90 & a 50mm!
I spent around an hour capturing some lights, motions and shadows from various corners and here it is, the compilation of clips.

All shots taken with D90 & 50mm at various aperture and exposure, the clips then combined and adjusted in Adobe Premier Pro and finally exported to FLV for web viewing.
