Underground Vibes

I used to be a fans of skateboarding, having orgasm when i saw tony hawk did 900 and wishing that I have a skateboard when I was younger, but never got a chance to own one. Anyway, just came through this video randomly while I'm looking for skateboard slowmotion, but this is not a slowmotion and not typical skateboard video that I've seen which is pretty worth mentioning. This video kinda show the lifestyle, not just pulling difficult tricks. I like the mix of everything in the video (skateboarder, tokyo, cars, people). Props to 13thWitness™ and SHINGO

Another video with Asahi Nihongo - preChristmas party

Hm, my video cant be viewed in certain country.. music copyright again. I got like 10 videos in my channel that having the same issue, can't believe they can even catch me eventhough i use live music, which is pretty 'amazing'?

Anyway, is my first time to attempt timelapse, its pretty fun. Some of the classmates were trying to do some stopmotion thing and keep posing while I left the camera alone. By the way, I just never learn my lesson, the video still shaky as with handheld, probably I need to install a robot hand so I can be stable as. Also, fluorescent really sucks when shooting by D90, it just keeps wobbling.

Well, not a good video, but was great night, heres the video

City Tour with the school in Fukuoka

Just suddenly feels like making this video during the tour with my school. was a pretty good trip and an opportunity to meet some new friends and train my Japanese, although I don't talk much. I decided to make this video after the lunch, so I missed a lot of filming chance while in another spots. The footage is very shaky, should have bring my tripod along.

Was a bit sad when I first uploaded it and I got a 1 star for this video... 1 star!! lol, thats the worse rating I ever got, yeh, I know its crap tho(shaky, not bboying, blablabla). But only worth 1 star does made me upset for a second. Well, that motivated gotta learn and practise more, never gonna give up!! lol

shot by: Nikon d90, 50mm f1.8 edited using sony vegas 9.0a

oh yeh, but the school likes it a lot tho. so.. Worth it. Also, the girl at the thumbnail display is cute! lol

I've been thru this and suddenly I missed it

These kids remind me of myself last time in primary school, not much to worry about, keep thinking of having fun all day.

Some of the photos are colour corrected, havent been using photoshop for a while and ive been really busy, cant be bother to correct them. well, I think the kids' expression is enough to make good photos, so photoshop... is unneccessary i guess, just have to let the photos to be as pure as the kids heart. :)

Came through this video on my iphone this morning, I was totally touched by this video ( i just felt that way i dont know why). I'm a Philip Bloom fans, always follow his blog and stuff, film maker using DSLR, you know what I mean.
The glider(dolly) is sweeeeet, made me want to get one, but 199 pound.. maybe save it for some other neccessary stuff, i'm broke as now. Theres like nothing cheap over here in Japan, just transportation everyday can kill me.
Anyway, enjoy the video and follow the story behind this video if you are interested.

The "Mini" Guardian

use the the name because the video reminds me of the movie The Guardian, and with tilt shift photography, everything become so mini like in a toy world. The helicopters scene is really amazing.

DJ Rafik - Gold Steel, by Tony Truand

The 2007 World DMC champ with his gold turntables. Very dope video, just love every seconds in this video. What can I say more? World Champion routine + sick video editing = perfect.

Was wondering if the video was made with using greenscreen for the background?
