All of these sound great on paper, but we really have to thank all of our clients, if all of you had not been so beautiful, we would not have been able to create anything.

As an auspicious launch into a wonderful year, we have decided to do a quick promo for our 6 hour express package. Until Chinese New Year, the package would be going for $2000. For more details, do email us, or give either of us a call!

Keep shining in 2010, have a great year ahead!

It was excellent fun, it’s not often I get to film a car interior in the night, and I got to play with crazy lighting conditions! Here’s a short excerpt from the script written for them.

“You Know”
Written by Why Keen
Adapted from interview with Jasmine and Sylvester

Scene 1
“He has to go …”

It’s night.
Close up of pavement, we can see cars moving by on the roads
Bags dropped in front of camera with a “thud” sound
Close up of JAS standing up, then looking up after placing bags on the ground
Over the shoulder of JAS to see TER with his bag stepping off into the street to flag for taxi
Wide Shot of TER with JAS, with bags, by the road, waiting for a cab.
TER Flags, and gets a cab.
Close up of opening cab door
Both TER and JAS gets on the cab.
Medium shot of both JAS and TER. JAS looks at TER.
JAS holds his hand in hers.
JAS Looks out of window.
TER Looks out of window.
Location shot of arriving at Changi Airport.

(Voice over) “You know … when you have to be away from her for a while.”

I’ve spent hours talking to Jasmine and Sylvester, and it always surprises me when someone has such vivid memories of key moments in their lives. This is as good as it gets to having your memories of key events etched down in any coherent form.

As this is pure fun for us, we can probably do only a couple of these each year. And yes, we do very varied stuff, from first meeting revisits to honeymoon docu-dramas, so do check with us via email at enquiry @ ichirofilms.com or a quick call to either of us:- Why Keen @ +65 91094628 or Christopher @ +65 98427458 if you would like to explore!

Due to the complexities in a video project, there are many areas
of value that you may not be aware of. Each of these areas
require some work, and some innovation. Are these areas hype,
or value? Read and hopefully you will be able to decide.

In the first part, let us work backwards from the completed
product that you receive. Let’s look at the cover.

I’ve realised that designing a cover is a niche on its own.
Typically, getting a graphic designer to design a cover costs
from 5 USD/hour to 20 USD/hour, so depending on the
quality, and complexity of the design, you are charged
accordingly.

Here are some places where designers can be found:-

www.elance.com
88db.com

As for me, I don’t have any qualifications as a designer.
As I’ve mentioned before, I have been trained as a
programmer, and have been working as one for 3 years
before I started as a videographer.

What I do is to search for ideas from sites like cdcovers.cc.
I’ve particularly found a treasure trove of design ideas
from the Criterion Collection, a privately held company that
distributes “authoritative” consumer versions of “important
classic and contemporary films”. (Excerpt from Wikipedia.)

There you have it… my “Secret”.

Here are a couple of my own designs… I strive to come up
with something unique for every couple, but playing with
similar themes, because obviously some of the design ideas
that work well for certain genres of film do not work well for
Wedding Videos.

Here are some of my designs :-

Some of the elements influencing my designs are

the events in the couple’s actual day,
the music I’ve picked for the couple,
the couple’s personal story.

All these elements are linked of course. But more
on that later!
