Hi guys,

I have been a reader in this forum for quiet sometime now and have learned a great deal by just that.

I'd like to share my work with you guys who share the same interest and would appreciate any feedback received..

Great idea and very well executed. I was able to watch the entire piece without being bored. Fantastic.

Thanks guys for the feedback.

I get along with most of the photographers.. I guess I would annoy the photographer when I'm too excited with shooting, but that doesn't happen very often. Usually I would take whatever I need as quickly as possible and make sure that I get out of the way to give enough time for the photographer to take shots. Its just like "sharing and caring", make sure you don't act like nobody else is there. The photographer will know when you're not ignoring him/her.. you just need to take your shots thats all.

Also, I find that photographers sometimes get out of ideas during photo shoots, so its good when we can fill in the gaps between each pose so that he can think about some ideas while I'm gliding away with the couple :P plus, he can also take candid shots then.

I wasn't offended by the non English language response. What is the translation?

I truly enjoyed your clip....watched it all the way through.
You certainly have command of your shot selection and cutting.
I liked the music too. Nice, happy, lovely music. Matched the atmosphere of the clip.

Thanks for sharing!

Hi Terry,

I stopped by your website and boy I love your showreel... well done... superb!

you guys must be having a blast with the whole family business thing. All the very best to you guys.

The translation is:

Shot2nya gokil bgt mas.. -> the shots are cool man
ngebasenya mmg udah di australi ya? -> are you based in australia?
storilinenya ciamik.. -> the storyline is very good
dijkt msh susah adapter mas.. -> its still hard to find an adapter in Jakarta, Indonesia.

hey Susanto,

that was great! sorry i didn't see that the first time round, but glad to have seen it now....

i esp. loved the little concepts, the variety, the branding follow-through on the text, and the attention to detail with matching the song to the footage

Susanto Widjaja · May 5th, 2009, 04:39 PM
