The song is “Haro Poh Logoton” from the album “Bakakuk”, Atama’s 2nd album.

the first time i was given the mantle of Director was during a FINAS video production course some time ago. This however, is very different from directing a short story in which there was no dialogue but we had to shoot according to the lyrics. The key was to sync the lips of the singers exactly to the song, so we had the song playing in the background while they acted the scenes out. This was crucial in the later part of editing. I also did the editing on this video, storyboard was done by Jen Julius.

Atama_09

This video shoot was done in 3 days (13 – 15 July 2009) by the Borneo Production Crew. Our locations were all around Kota Kinabalu.

The video was launched on 16 August 2009 together with Atama’s 2nd album “Bakakuk” during the Star City North Hip Hop Championship 2009.

video will be available soon :)
