lol sarcast you want my comment on it?
first of all i understand they aren't professional actors, and the probably don't have to be if they knew how to play an instrument!!! @_@
i think the only person who actually looked right was the vocalist lol
the intro guitarist was picking nonsense(picking bass strings at treble notes)
the drummer was too stiff i think he was afraid to hit the drums...(VERY obvious)
the gurl guitarist was playing nonsense, she was even moving her fingers at bending parts... and moving at lower register(first few frets) at the higher solo parts..
i think the bassist was kind of faking as well, but he probably faked better than the rest
Thats about all the technical errors.
On to the video recording part
i think the lighting isn't very balanced at some scenes, noticed there are some over exposures. (unless it was done on purpose)
the camera isn't very still at some scenes too, shaking too much especially got one part it was trying to shoot up the tree (2.02-2.08)
and thats about it la...
Overall i think you guys did a fantastic job editing the video. I liked the transitions, was done very smoothly from one scene to another. and the environment was picked rather nicely.
But i have to say, although I don't expect professional quality MV, this probably doesn't even pass as an average video, imo feels like just something another amateur cooked up for youtube. Also, it shouldn't be called a remake. Remakes are usually officially done. This, being unofficial should be called a parody or fan-made.
I'm very sorry i am so harsh on you guys, i know i'm not your lecturer or anything but as a musician(and this IS a musicians forum) i just cannot ignore all the technical parts of playing an instrument. You, as a musician should also understand that.
Perhaps if you posted this elsewhere(in kopitiam or something) non-musicians wouldn't realise all these mistakes and will tell you, great job.
Hope you don't feel offended >.<
if you do, just pm me and i will gladly edit this post. ^^
I agree on this..

and the vocalist really does a good job in his acting, anyhow the introduction guitarist, even thou he doesnt know how to play the song, but he can really shake and pose with the guitar..lol.. i know, the hand is really fake...lol...he still new in guitar.
Actually, we had some issue with the cameraman .. the video will be worse if we didnt have another cameraman help us.
What to do? im a musician too i know but ill have to ignore the technical error, we were in a rush of time and need to do plannings, and we also got alotttt of trouble going thru finding location... kena marah lagi........ saw the nice wall on the MV?.. guess wats building is tat?
