Marvin - Girl On The Television
This is a music video that I directed, shot and edited for my friend Marvin. Dicky Salim was also in this production as the Assistant Director.
As for the concept, Marvin would like himself to be in black and white, and only the girl on the television is in colour. Marvin and the girl never met, and he is never in the same frame except when he's in frame with the television.
The girl on the television is portrayed by Jessica Wongsodiharjo.
Please do watch and enjoy.

David Josade Project - Sosmed In Love
This song is composed by my friend David, where he produced and composed this song in relation with our daily experiences in using social media and instant messaging applications to interact with someone we have interest in.
This is an everyday problem in our generation, when we check our phones, our social media, hoping to see a post or a reply from that specific person but we didn't see any.
In pre-production, we came to a decision which specific social media will show up on screen, so I did leave some empty space on some shots while in production.
I came up with a different style of cinematography, where I usually shoot with camera movement, this time a lot of still shots were used for the storyline part.

Birthday Gift
This is a short film that I recently produced, shot and edited.
From the first day of shooting, I did set a release date which is 8'th of January, as the calendar shows a date marked on it.
Anyway this is a mise-en-scene film, with no dialog and voice over, so it needs a lot of other supporting factors such as music, acting and sound effects.
Luckily we have our actor Jevier Justin, a tv show host who can act very beautifully, our scriptwriter Yournes Sari who did her best writing the script with her unique ideas, and our music composer Rio Okta Gunawan as he composed a very nice piece of music just for this short film.
This film was produced together with the director Didiet Tham, and Don Tjong from Atham Tailor. Just one day before the 2nd day of shoot, Don's father passed away. And so this film is also dedicated to Don's father, Atham Gozali, the founder of Atham Tailor.
Also, the picture of father in the film is my long lost Grandfather, thanks Grandpa for participating in my film!
Big thanks to Tokyobike Indonesia for lending us a bike!
