MTV Sessions Mikky Ekko
I am uploading some works for Warner Music's brief to connect with live performance directors. These are commissioned by MTV Asia and are aired across both the asian and international networks.
My role is show director, editor and occasional colourist. I was also involved in the planning for stage and motion graphics design / concept / look and feel.
The video is on my cloud server's archive. I included the links at the bottom of this entry. You can also visit my mini website to have a quick look at other works I have done :)
This first video is for MTV Sessions - Mikky Ekko. The performance was actually hosted on MTV UK's website for quite a while. I started the video with the last song in the show so you can see my name in the credits for verification :)
But I hope you watch on :) I really enjoyed working on this particular show because Mikky is such an extraordinary performer and also an amazing person. I loved editing it very much because somehow, everything just flowed :) As a director, I aim to capture details that accentuate the music as rhythm is the most beautiful poetry.
I decided to apply for this brief because I wanted to let Warner know that I am keen to work with bands on several levels. I am here in Asia with a current focus on Japan since I am halfway through my first feature film right now. Prior to the pandemic, many international bands swing by for concerts and even music videos.
I have experience shooting in many countries. Some places have become second homes. From 2012 to 2018, I spent a fair bit of time in Europe as I was exploring co-production opportunities for film. I was traveling alot between Shanghai, Helsinki and Stockholm.
