TotallyOz Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 This young man put together his experiences from his last trip to Thailand. A friend shared this with me and I thought it was very well done. Alexx, ChrisUK, Moses and 1 other 4 Quote
NIrishGuy Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 Wow, excellent video, I was expecting someone's badly edited home movie attempt but that was excellent, he should sell his services to TIT ! I wonder just what level of film maker Justin Heaney is out of interest as that certainly seemed way more than someone playing with iMovie on their Mac perhaps, everything from the way the original footage was taken ( with shots the average tourist wouldn't even think about bothering about taking) right through to the final edit and sound track etc, all went together to make a really edgy and enjoyable movie and it just makes you realise what some of us myself included are missing by not getting out of Silom and Pattaya more often !

firecat69 Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 Funny how 2 people can see something so differently. I agree it is well done and I have seen just about everything in there . However I found it overall depressing and certainly nothing to be used to attract visitors to Thailand. If I had never been here that video would certainly not have gotten me to visit. Quote
Guest Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 I think it's a very nicely shot piece of art. Not for use as a tourism promotion video though. Quote
bkkmfj2648 Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 Thanks Michael for sharing this great work of art by Justin Heaney. I truly enjoyed it as it brought me right back to LOS as I am already missing it. I copied the below from a quick Google search as I wanted to know other than Bangkok - where were the other places that were shown in the video. As Nirish already stated - I also need to venture out more on my next trip to LOS. Last thing - this type of video brings a NEW standard to preparing "Trip Reports". Mine were hard enough - I could not immagine also trying to prepare a professional type of video like Heaney's in one of my Trip Reports. ================== return results shown below from a quick Google search ============================ THAILAND - "In the Garden of the Dragon" - SHORT Justin Heaney Plus 1 week ago Filmed in and around Bangkok, Pai, Mae Hong Son and the Thailand / Myanmar border region in late July 2013. This edit is an attempt at re-creating the visceral nature of my experience there. vimeo.com/84844989 Justin Quote
