It’s another Video Project Review time!!!!
This is my third wedding project I’ve ever made (after Intan-Tezar's slideshow and Bin-Dzikri’s marathon singing). And, this time I dedicated this video for Rifqi and Reti. Happy birthday as well for Rifqi, hope you really enjoy our present :)

A lil bit story behind this video is about how I came up with the idea of bringing all this together. A week before the wedding day, I thought about what we should give for this opportunistic-yet-fortunately-generous guy. I started searching for a right wedding celebration song, started discussion with some people, basically trying to find the simple yet kinda cynical. 1 of the brilliant idea was Vidi’s idea, i.e.: to sing a mash-up of PLAYBOY (7 Icon), Setahun Kemarin (Kahitna) and other sweet romantic song… then make a video clip of it. It’s about love journey of Rifqi Harimuji :]
However, as this present was not well-planned and it’s only a week left, it was cancelled. I decided not to continue this project. However, all just turned around into an uneasy feeling when the D-Day came. Just a bit uneasy, anw. LOL
So, While p**ping at the morning of September 17, I decided okay let’s go with a simple idea. All shoots should be conducted during the party. I decided just to go with one song and apologize not to use my friend’s brilliant idea. “God Bless The Broken Road” by Rascall Flatts has been my favorite song since long time ago. The lyrics are very sweet and honest. And, more importantly, it fits directly with Rifqi’s character: PLAYBOY yet LOYAL.
Then, I just tried to call some of my friends to print 1-whole-page of Rifqi’s face. Thanks to Boteh and Maya for their assistance at that time. And, after all, it just happened naturally. Decided to come early just to shoot the ceremony, thankfully I arrived exactly at the moment of Rifqi and Reti getting off their car. So, first job was well done *though I captured it in portrait :P*. Some happy moments were captured as well.
And, finally the main idea was successfully taken after Eja half-heartedly volunteered himself to wear Rifqi’s mask and humiliated by many girls on the party. LOL, big salute anyway for Eja’s willingness!!! It’s hilarious to watch him chasing girls apprehensively, until one moment…. I wasn’t able to hold my laugh and directly squatted down and then… ….. …… … . *sreeeettt* #embarrassed

At the end, it came to editing part. After 4 weeks apart from the wedding day, I started to edit this project. Since the song was quite long and I didn’t capture many shoots before, so here comes the FB ‘visiting’ time! Hahaha… Once while trying to get Rifqi & Reti’s pictures, somehow someway Rifqi said hello to me on FB chat! What a coincidence!
Inspired by some videos from youtube and vimeo, this is also my first time using the accelerated rewind mode and two people’s faces combination. I also put my comments at the end of video *finally show up at the video!!! :p*, since stil have 1 more scene to be inserted (bye-bye clip). Accompanied by Almus’s guitar & Shana’s violin instrument play (“Grow Old With You”), hopefully I didn’t ruin the video. Hahahaha.. Please, forgive meee...
By and large, here’s the result. Hope you all enjoy it, especially Rifqi and Reti. Thank you very much to all people involved in this video as well. Good life, everyone!!! :D
Happy Wedding Rifqi Harimuji & Reti Oktania |
