Video promos for Christmas: MadWorld

Rather timidly, I whispered to Grace (my wife) one day, “I’d like to learn videography – can you teach me?“. She’s been in the film and television scene for years, has edited full-length movies and countless TV series episodes. Me?

Inspired by a video blogger – GeekBrief.tv

I was sharing the idea and concept behind TheBackpackr.com with Cheng Leng, a good serial blogger friend of mine who hails from Malacca but who has now gone across the border to kiasuland. She’s one girl who is very much in the blogging scene and perhaps even spends more time online than I do!
