you need to push your way through the path with a polite smile with no verbal interaction
or else you would got bombards from them (keep annoying you)

.
not only Maxis broadband but other players as well - Digi, WiMax(the potong team), Celcom, U Mobile, Streamyx ....
..and the best thing - they got many booths been set up within the whole damn building~!

.
it was really my lucky day to bumped into them - the Sony Alpha users (Tong Koh Yiaw & Danny Lim) and additional a 2 Nikon users (Michelle Wong & Shatool Lavin, who was not around at that moment)

My 1st Video by Canon 500D + CyberLink PowerDirector 8

.

.

.
This was my 1st serious video capturing and editing project with Canon 500D
I was amazed with what it can deliver.
.
So the producer, production crew, director ...and bla bla bla
...was ME alone .. LoL~
.

Equipments & Editing Software:

1) Canon 500D

2) 18-55 IS

3) 55-250 IS

4) CyberLink PowerDirector 8

5) Music/Song - Album: Massive Attack - Track: Man Next Door

How to do it:

1) The main concern here is the idea on what story you wanted tell.
 .

2) Imagine the scenes and effects that you want to have
 .

3) Capture scenes in short timeline, such as 5sec. 10sec. or 15sec. per scene or longer one for 'fast motion effect' as shown in the video. It is better to have a longer scene since you can trim those unwanted parts off when editing. Just don't shoot a scene too long from the same angle, especially conversation between people.
 .

4) It doesn't matter where to start 1st, the location can be random since you will need to stitch those scenes up to make a complete piece of video.
 .

5) Pay more attention on angles and effect when watching a drama or movie, it really helps a lot for ideas. Sometimes, MTV can proves very helpful on artistic video projects.
 .

6) Shoot as many scenes as possible.
 .

7) Be thoughtful on soundtrack that you will use on your video, it has to match the feel it portray.
 .

8) Use a simple editing software before jumping to those pro editing one. PowerDirector 8 had
proved to be easy to use and it has many tutorial in YouTube to guide you.
 .

9) We will not get perfect or desirable result on our 1st production or a few earlier productions but things will improve once we had master it and learn from those short comings.

Thanks for viewing and hope you will like my 1st time videography.

Cheers~
