After a really corny MTV-style confessional, you can watch one of the clips that I am most proud of. It is one of the few times that I think the music (Coldplay’s Clocks), the footage (shot on the highways outside Bangkok, and the voice-over really compliment one another well.
I’m fairly pleased with the manner in which I portrayed the floating market outside Bangkok, which is where all the footage was shot. The song is Sunchyme by Dario G.
This is definately more of a straight documentary-style clip and I didn’t really add a whole lot to it. When you have good footage of a small Thai guy doing flips and catching snakes in his mouth, you don’t really need to do much editing.
A stark contrast to the previous evening, I spent my second day visiting all of the Buddhist temples in Bangkok. I wrote the VO for this clip during a time I was arguing with a Buddhist friend of mine, so it may seem overbearing. On the bright side, there is footage of a Buddhist monk picking his nose. The video was shot in the Buddhist temples throughout Bangkok.
After experiencing the congestion of some of the markets in Seoul, I was more or less prepared to deal with the Bangkok streets. The footage is shot in Bangkok.
This section begins with a farewell letter and then jolts into the highways surrounding Bangkok, where I experienced moments of vivid horror at the taxi driver’s driving. The footage is shot at the International Airport in Dubai and the highways surrounding Bangkok.
