PK 14 rocks man... i heard they got a third album? You have? I only got the first two, haven't been back to Beijing recently.

Nice song.

Love the fact that the basslines can be heard quite clearly.

 

[hecklerkoch]

NICE!!!

Good art direction.

Just hope the main scenes (the tin robot) were not stock video but instead was actually shot by whoever made the video.

Cool!!

Keep it up, man!

Would love to see more intelligent, thought-provoking art direction and photography work like this in Singapore.

Nice music although honestly, I can't seem to appreciate the quirky vocals. Well, that's just me.

 

[atiao]

Great stuff ken!

Do put up more songs is possible. I want to listen!

I have only the first PK14 album I think, or whichever that has the song 28th shadow in it. It's pretty awesome, the Chinese underground scene seems pretty cool right now, but I think Taiwan has a better scene.

Yo Atiao, good to hear from you! just go to the myspace link...besides, you always come down and watch us play, the new EP will be selling oficially then also. =p

Thanks for your kind words, hope to see you at one of our future shows if ever.

Cool video and everything 'cept for the compositing. One can tell that you're more into stop-motion and editing but lacking in compositing skills.

Next time you call uncle RoRK to help you with compositing, K?

Keep it UP!

Cheers
RoRK

 

[Ken]

Haha Uncle RoRK, didn't realise about your kind offer till I came back tothis page!

Don't regret your offer bro, I got tons of crap projects outside of work which needs compositing and which only pays in beer and chicken rice!

 

[mel80]

Kick ass song! \m/

K, first off, you gotta lose the uncle bit, K? Secondly, RoRK can drink lots of beer. :-D

As mentioned, the vid looks fine except for a few rough edges (important ones though) which can easily be fine-tuned to give it a more professional look. I was hoping that once I give you the pointers and techniques that you'll be able to sort things out on your end. I will need you or someone you know, to be comfortable with Photoshop and After Effects.

I'll PM you shortly with my contact.

Cheers
RoRK
