"Dotting Our Communities" came on the scene after my childhood idly created edo_dot_com as my first email add. The Spot where I will express my journey in dotting the communities thru visualization of my, your and our epic life pilgrimage. To a large extent, it's a story of Good Life :]

First video for February! :) actually this video should be aired on January, yet due to the other video project, I had to postpone it a week... and, now it's ready!!!! Yihaaaa....
After its trailer on November, then the 1st part on January 1 2012, and now..... Yes, it's the second part of "Occupy Bandung" video: Tribute to Running Man!
Would say the editing was quite complicated this time since we took a lot of long-period scenes and used only 1 camera, thus it's quite boring. Couple of sound and picture effects played an important role here.
Story Behind the Video
Now, Time for the story. As the first part, this video also was taken on our trip to Bandung for Uchi-Ber wedding. We did "Night at Campus" on Friday night, the day before the wedding. Inspired by current top Korean reality show - Running Man (RM), We went there on midnight (around 11-12 PM) and played 3 games - 2 played before on RM, i.e.: Chicken Fight (yet, the MC, Dannu, always mentioned it as: Chicken Dance :))), Camera Zone, and Green Spot (popular game during our childhood).
What games are they???!!! Check the video! hahaha, Chicken Fight is the hardest to explain, thus I just recorded Running Man episode 1 and put it into video, huahahaha... Camera Zone is another creative game and it's quite fun to play and watch :) Green Spot? it has not been played before in Running Man, yet we just wanna play it! However, things happened and we got scolded by the Security right at the moment we stopped practicing and ready to play...HUAHAHAHAHA, thanks to Dannu who took the initiative to shoot Security's face and answer the question of our batch! Yes, we re class of 2007!!!! We're going to graduate a week after!!! -___-"
The Famous Security!
Afterwards, we went to "Gerbang Belakang" while still searching for other places to play. Yet, another thing happened. We walked through the center of campus and found out that couple of students were still in campus that late night. For what? It's Ospek!!!!! Swasta Night, I guessed. As the seniors, without any hesitation we just went passing them. I and Kico even took couple of pictures and videos. Yet, suddenly the seniors of them (he's actually 2006 -__-) came to me and Kico. After some talks, he asked us to delete the recordings & pictures since they didn't want this occasion go public. :|
If only Riko (the strongest in ITB history), Ben (the oldest in ITB history) and Dannu (the darkest in ITB history) were not separated too far from me & Kico and then met this bunch of kids, guess what would happen?!
Hahaha, at the end... No doubt, it was one of the greatest fun night I ever had! As Ipang said in his "Sahabat Kecil" song: Kesempatan seperti ini tidak akan bisa dibeli, hope you all really enjoy this video!!! :)
No winner is too... Bad!
Not the first one touching the finish line is.... Worse!!
Yet, to live without these friends & fun... is the Worst!!!
:]
The mighty power of friendship is the moral story... :)
Okay I am getting mellow now! *headdown* LOOOL
Anyway, Final Word: Love your communities, family and friends! ENJOY!!!
Okay, that greeting simply just made me getting more terrified now with this lonely ambience. Yes, I went to my office on January 1st, 2012, SUNDAY! and Client's Office on December 31st, 2011! Awesome, isn’t it?
Unfortunately, No… I came by there and spent couple of hours just to upload my latest 2011 video project: “Occupy Bandung [Part 1] & Season's Greetings” Yeeaaaaayyy!!! *gimme, gimme that high five*
Occupy Bandung Trailer
Right 1.5 month after the trailer came out (too long? hahaha), Finally it’s wrapped up :) The scenes were taken about 2 months ago and I finally got the chance to finish it by the end of 2011. As I mentioned about my prolonged problems in my previous blog (READ IT!), I took almost 2 weeks to finish this project. I once promised to finish it before New Year, hopefully might be a great New Year present for all of you! Cup Cup Muah! *sign my thongs* *give them to my fans*
STORY BEHIND THE SCENE
Alright let's talk about the video. At the beginning, I got like almost 40 clips in total. They all took place in 2 days of our trip. The main focus is the Running Man Games (we played about 3 games). Yet, each game cost about 5-15 minutes per game. Meanwhile, I haven't had YouTube Premium Account, thus only able to upload at max 15 mins per video (I thought only 10 mins - it's just been upgraded). Hence, There's a need to tweak this snag. That's why I decided to separate this project into 2 parts (with continuous storyline). Now... let's start talking the first part :)
Soundtrack is the most critical part for this video since I had to admit the scenes were quite boring & long. Well, before we didn't have plan to film it. As usual, they trust me to think and develop the end-to-end project (Q: should I be proud or depressed? A: Both...). Thus, I decided to research songs with "Night" or "Tonight" keywords as the OSTs. Then, here were the nominees:
Give Me Everything Tonight - Pitbull feat Ne-Yo
Last Friday Night - Katy Perry
All Night Long - Afro Blue (The Sing-Off S03)
Yeah 3x - Chris Brown
DJ Got Us Falling in Love - Usher feat Pitbull
Silent Night - Susan Boyle !@^*$&(#*!
And finally, I went with..... wait... let's talk per chapter :)
[1] Wedding & Departure
The 1st Part's main storyline is playing around with all clips outside those RM games, i.e.: departure, visit Sarwang, drop in on ITB, and the Wedding itself. However, the games (which will be the 2nd part) came about between the 'ITB' scenes and 'Wedding' scene.
In order to trick on it, I used a reversed mode at the beginning. Wedding scene came first, then the rest went onwards as per the reality. I knew you noticed that my clip was different than others - Open Vacancy for Co-cameraman & Co-editor!!!
The Casts!
Soundtracks:
Wedding: AJ Rafael - Here, Tonight (Intro) -> Really perfect for the opening, love his album! (Original Video, click Here)
Departure: AJ Rafael - Emma Watson -> the melody fits well with "Here Tonight" since in his 'Red Roses' album this song comes second right after 'Here Tonight'. He is coming to Jakarta this January anyway, guys! Go buy the tickets! Talented Musician & YouTube Artist :) Original Video, click Here)
[I.2] Dinner Time - Sarwang
This chapter was the second most difficult chapter to be made. The final concept finally popped up after at the same time I heard Hot Chelle Rae's "Tonight, Tonight" and watched Riko's scene while he was tying his shoelace. Aha, Bingo! The lyrics fitted well with Riko's expression. Then, here comes the difficult part which is trying to compile all scenes gathered into only about 20-30 seconds frame. At first, I put all of them into 1 scene (9 small windows). However, after watching it back over and over, I decided to change it into 6 small windows per scene. Thank you for the experiences of watching YouTube videos a lot (too much, I guessed)! :)
Historical Gaze!
Soundtracks:
Hot Chelle Rae - Tonight, Tonight -> apparently at the early stage of video editing, I deleted this song from my nomination list. Yet, as somehow I figured out some scenes might fit well with the lyrics, so let's welcome the return of........... this song!| Click 'Like' for the UNO DOS TRES :)
[I.3] Character Introduction
Hey world, this is the introduction of SeX! :)) Inspired by our friend's mate's twitter, seX (= sekali = very) has been our chat topic all night long. Well, apparently this is the most difficult part! At first, I only thought of compiling all of the se-X scenes (previous OST nomination: I Just Had Sex - Akon feat Lonely Island).
However, I suddenly got an idea of showing our characters through this freak food-ordering conversation. Just a glimpse of story plot to be combined with our crazy silly absurd actions! So unfortunate we didn't capture the waiter's laugh after hearing our 'seX' games :))
The Most Foreseen Character
Soundtracks:
Guy Sebastian - Natalie King Cole medley - Someday (Live - YouTube) -> this part is tricky. It was really difficult to find perfect slow-yet-fun song. The clips have very witty messages, yet it went in slow tempo (lots of conversations). Thus, the winner goes to....... Guy Sebastian's live performance at one of the cafes in Australia (the original video's link here)
[I.4] ITB, Here We Come!
Soundtrack played its key role here. We got additional player who joined at the end of our dinner, Mirza Harun. That night, we thought of our next destination and somehow somewhere it ended with our campus! What the heck do people think that the alumni come by their campus on 1130 PM?! No, we didn't come for Ospek. The reality was we were thought as Student Cabinet's representatives or Rector's delegates to monitor Ospek in ITB -__-" We got caught by Arsi's alumni ('Swasta') and our recordings on their 'Swasta Night' had to be deleted :( I was caught alone, then Kico came to support me, yet the rest just went away since they didn't know that I was kidnapped. *WHO THE HELL IS THE ALUMNI??!* #exaggerated #our2ndCharacter #PartI.3
Section 2 - Boyband Scene
Anyway, basically there are 3 sections in this chapter. [1] Background of our campus visit, [2] Boyband walk (just for fun, found not on purpose :p), [3] our activities at 'current' Industrial Engineering Student Association's base. We've got a lot of fun time here thou it's 2AM already, see how we even made some drama with the Bamboo sticks! LOOOOL!
Section 3 - Riko acting as Batagor seller
Soundtracks:
Mario Bros Soundtrack -> the idea was to use Mario Bros' soundtrack when he got mushroom as an indication that we got an additional player. After hearing the whole song, I think it's a good soundtrack for the whole story ofour campus visit.
The Committed - I Want It That Way -> Sing-Off season 2 winner brought their amazing A Capella version of BSB's song which is also one of our favorite karaoke songs.
Sam Tsui - Summer Medley 2011 -> almost all of the nominated songs are packed into this 1 amazing mash-up made by Sam Tsui & Kurt Hugo Schneider. Really love the beat! FYI, Both are YouTube Artists, Sam Tsui even acted as additional MC for The Sing-Off Season 3! (go check their YouTube channels! lotta cool stuffs there! Original video click here)| Click' Like' for the perfect fit of Dance event ads with "Party Rock Anthem" part :)
[I.5] Alien's Invasion
My favorite chapter! Hahaha. Took around 6 takes with monopod for this freak absurd scene. The idea was how to connect the first part with the 2nd part. Since there's only 1 person editing this project, this shy guy needed to volunteer himself for this chapter. Showtime, Baby! :]
After downloading the iLife Sound Effects from torrent (took 2 days! geez!), I thought it might be the best chance to play with some sci-fi sounds effects. The idea was to show that there's a technical problem and I got noticed by an Alien from outer space that my 10 mins is going to expire soon (time limit for normal YouTube account), so I need to fix the error. After I fixed it (shown by the return of the previous soundtrack), I urgently needed to give the final message, i.e.: Chapter 2 to be launched on January 2012 :)
Me with Flying Holograms
Some interesting facts behind this part, i.e.:
Technology trend infection:This time I also tried to use the 'screen and motion' effects like the current technologies trend [flying holograms]. Thou it's not perfectly edited, hopefully it still looked cool! huahahahaha
Alay words: it was actually meant to be Alien's speech telling me that I only had few minutes left for this video (Non-Alay word: "Ten Minutes Limit Expires Soon!"). Yet, due to the technical error, it became alay :P
Wardrobe: I really wanted to use futuristic glasses / wardrobes, unfortunately I didn't have it *huaaaaa*. Since it's already December 31st! (which was planned to be the launching date of this movie, yet it was failed due to some technical errors -> eventually it did happen for real -__-"), I decided to use normal properties :| Next time, Next time! I am going to rent Barney's outfit!
Clone Effect: Again it didn't came out perfectly, we're not close enough in kiss scene. Dont know why the lighting became different, yet due to limited time... I needed to relax my OCD for now.
[I.6] Season's Greetings
As I mentioned in the previous blog, I really wanted to make Christmas video. And finally I decided to put this additional scene. Although the Christmas has passed for a week, yet I still wanted to say Merry Christmas :) And, Happy New Year for sure! I took the clip from my family's Christmas trip to Bandung. A giant glowing xmas tree in Congo was quite appropriate for this occasion. Since I had a mistletoe with "Merry Christmas" greeting in the previous scene, I picked Bieber's "Mistletoe" as the OST. YEAAAY :)
_____ Final words, I really want to thank you mates for all of your supports along 2011. Now, 2012 is coming and I really wish able to make more & better videos :) All the best for all of us in Twenty-Twelve! Amen. Dotting Our Communities, God Bless Us and Enjoy the Video :]
Welcome back to my Video Project Review. This time, I just finished a trailer for my next movie, i.e.: "Occupy Bandung". The reason behind this trailer production is actually I don't have time yet to produce the full-version movie :P, thus I decided to go with some teaser first to depict how insane our trip was!!! :D
October 21, 2011 - We went to Bandung to attend our college-mate wedding, Uchi (Congrats, Uchi!) - married on the day after. After 2hours Jkt-Bdg trip, we went directly to Sarwang with tonnes of "jeroan" ready to swim into our stomachs. Along with some 'classic' jokes and birthday call for our friend in Japan, finally the food came! I won't talk much about the food, will just show you some pictures here:
Legendary Perkedel Cemplung
Definitely Unhealthy Tasty Cuisine
Full stomach, time to get some exercise. We then picked our university, ITB as our next destination. Walking & playing around at campus on midnight was one of our most unforgettable moments! 5 mins after, we got bored and tried to figure some excitement. Inspired by the popular-must-watch Korean Reality Show, Running Man, these 6 boys were ready to blow up the midnight silence of the campus!!!!
Boys Ready to Shake the Campus!
However..... Full stories and movies on it will be published later... :]
For now, let's enjoy the trailer! Check the epic ending how we finally got caught by the ........ :S
See ya on the final version of "Running Man in ITB" episode!
... and some movies/another trailer 'bout our randomness during the trip!
