What We Gonna Tell The Children?

[jaegersing]

This is a 3D animated film about environmental disaster, made by my wife Beth and based on one of my songs.

Thanks. Took her ages to render every scene, altogether was around 5 months. I don't have the patience for this type of work myself.

hmm.. you write chinese music as well?? i write chinese lyrics for fun.. not a pro but ever tot if can put into songs..

Hi sundazz. No lah, she works for computer company, and I am in aerospace, but we are both very passionate about creating new stuff and spend a lot of time on it (but I don't have the same amount of patience she has ).

I've written a song that someone told me sounds Chinese, but I am an angmoh so wouldn't claim that I can write Chinese music. Always a first time though I suppose.

btw maybe you want to consider making the song simpler, i find the verses somewhat complicated thus the rhythm doesn't quite come through, especially at the beginning. i also think you'll sound better if you avoid too much bass, your baritone sounds quite nice actually

[jaegersing]

Thanks sundazz. I'll let her know your comments.

Yes we've been living in Singapore for 16 years plus.

Actually I was a trombone player (amateur) for 20 years and have a lot of involvement with music. I also regularly put a stage band together for company events and do some of the arrangements. I just love to be involved in music and video, but unfortunately I got to work elswehere to pay for my hobby. Ha ha.

Videolifestyle serious? I suppose so, but maybe we should say passionate instead. Derek and Alvin really care about what they do, and are always keen to help people with less experience.

Is that the Daz software now?
I saw your clip on the STOMP site also...including some of the guys from video lifestyle.
Guess you stand a good chance with the 3D approach and the strong message.

Yes, it used to be Eovia but now it's Daz.

STOMP? I tried putting the video there but can never access the site to check if it went up or not. The DIY video section always seems to have a problem (for me anyway).

I like Alvin's Playbox Extreme video. There's a lot of effort involved in making this style of ad and it works well.
