24 March 2010, 7 pm: Business Networking. Organized by Mike and Joseph, Directors of BNI Eastern Region Singapore.   Assisted by Adrian Lee, the Ambassador, helping the Directors run the show.  The energy was high in the presence of 60 business owners and professionals. Joseph, a proficient speaker, successfully roused the crowd with activities. Participants wasted no time to network with one another and exchange name cards. The hot favorite item for the night was the busy bee hive game. Everyone's faces was full of enthusiasm as they ran all over to collect business leads. Winners having the most name cards and giving the most leads walk away with prizes.

Watch the video past the first half. That's the fun part. At least fun for you if you have attended the party or know who Roger Loh is. Roger Loh, co-founder of GBN (Guerrilla Business Network), let his hair down in his own party. Rarely will you see such a spectacle. Guerrilla Business Network is a networking group in Singapore where business people gather twice monthly to share business ideas. Enjoy! Adrian Lee http://VideoLane.com PS: My raw attempt to video-log the party. May be video-logging more often if I have the time.

...or cough up between $100 and $200 for each song. It's in the news today. Be careful what songs you use in weddings. http://www.todayonline.com/Print/Hotnews/EDC091228-0000047/Theyve-only-just-begun---to-charge "It (Composers and Authors Society of Singapore ) has sent letters to wedding photographers and videographers asking them to buy the licences for songs they wish to use - on their corporate websites and in their works - while stopping short of suggesting active enforcement." (Where's my letter? They missed me!) "They should state clearly who they represent, which are the copyrighted songs, and how much one has to pay for different uses - for example, on a website or for a photo montage... That way, businesses will be more willing to pay for the licences because we can then prove to customers there's a reason for raising our charges." COMPASS should create some sort of online shopping cart for us to buy licences. Just make it easy to...

May not be professional but I know they learnt something. It's a pleasure to watch the works of my students. This time round the course participants were young schoolers. It's a challenge keeping their attention. I might rename the course Holiday Videography Workshop for Beginners instead of Basic Videography Course.

Looking forward to this year's... Singapore F1 - 2009 Formula 1 Night Race - Singapore Grand Prix ! Took this photo with my old O2 PDA phone from Suntec City after a conference video shoot.

Spoke to an audience of business people at the Singapore Management University today. The presentation topic was on " 5 Easy Ways to Promote Your Business with Youtube! ".

What I love best about my job is the food. Especially the food from a 5 or 6-star hotel. Get paid to eat and drink. That's lifestyle! This video is a snippet of a recent 1-week video shooting stint. Tour with me along Singapore River on an electric-powered bumboat. YES! the bumboats are now powered by battery. No smoke, no smell. The boats cannot go as fast as before, the bumboat operator told me. Anyway, it's a river cruise. Save the Earth! My foreign friends got to sip Singapore Sling in Raffles Hotel. Throw peanut shells all over the Long Bar without getting fined. You haven't visited Singapore if you haven't seen the Merlion and the ERP. Sentosa is a haven for peacocks, though I saw more of peahens and peachicks. OK, not just get paid to eat, but also travel and tour. I love my job. Hire me if you have places to go and events to remember. Enjoy! Adrian Lee The Videographer http://VideoLane.com

I have a multi-cam video assignment coming up that requires one video camera to be stationary all the time. No pan, no zoom. Just stationary. The problem is… there is no space for a tripod. This will be a party event swamped with people dancing all over the place. So the idea is to fix my camcorder onto any overhead fixtures. The best solution is the JOBY Gorillapod , a mini flexible camera tripod...

How My 3-minute Talk Made 6 New Referrals Caught off-guard, I was given 3 minutes to introduce myself and my company in front of 20 business owners. The result? Six hot referrals came rushing in. It feels like striking a triple-7 on a jackpot. 29 August 2008, I am inducted as a member of BNI-Rendezvous , a group made up of small business owners that give each other business referrals every week. The funny thing is… 10 years ago, I was invited to join BNI by my Navy friend, Sim Chow Boon , who was also the founder of Singapore’s BNI. Social and business networking is not something in my comfort zone. My Videography business expanded not due to any effort in networking and marketing, but by my video works being passed around and catching attention. My works speak for themselves. So 10 years on, why did I finally decide to join BNI? The simple answer is I am transforming myself from a self-employed to a business owner. I am applyin...

Photo Mode Review of the Sony HDR-SR12 and CX12 After collecting my Sony HDR-SR8 (100GB High Definition Hard Drive Handycam Camcorder) from the Sony service centre, I stopped to test the new Sony HDR-SR12 (10 Megapixel 120GB High Definition Hard Drive Handycam Camcorder) and the Sony HDR-CX12 (High Definition Memory Stick PRO Duo Handycam Camcorder) I only had a few minutes of free time, so I tested these features I wanted to know: How long do I have to wait between snapping photos? How long do I have to wait for the photo flash to recharge? How many photos can I take during video recording and will there be flash? How long do I have to wait between snapping photos? I have bad experiences with slow consumer still cameras. You miss a lot of good candid moments if the camera does not react as quick as your eyes. I hesitate to buy a family still camera because of this. The Sony HDR-SR12 and CX12 seem to do fine, instant, though you need to get...

NDP08 Experience Edited to 6 minutes… August 11th, 2008 YES! I got the ticket to Singapore National Day Parade 2008 at the last minute. It was a Videography assignment to record a group of foreign delegates invited to watch. Simply edited with Ulead VideoStudio 11, here is my best experience in NDP08 in 6 minutes… The crumpled NDP 2008 ticket from my soaking wet crowded pants pocket… ...it rained! Can you spot the NDP 2008 ticket on my wall of collectibles? Adrian Lee Blog - http://Adrian.VideoLane.net Products - http://VideoLANE.net Service - http://VideoLane.com

How do you shoot the best angle without getting blocked or pushed when you are a videographer in the paparazzi? Yesterday at the Singapore Arts Festival Outreach Launch, I had the opportunity to jostle with the paparazzi to get my best shot. There were like 10 photographers and video camera people representing the media. Not too many as compared with the Singapore Flyer Official Opening I did last month. The media people wanted to catch the best shot for TV and magazines. I wanted to catch the best shot for my client. Actually, it was not as bad as most might think. I remember in the old days, you really get pushed around and have someone just plant himself right in front of your camera. Read more here... How To Fight With the Media People or Paparazzi?

Did You know… Xerox not only copy paper documents, they make DVD copiers too! The Xerox DVD/CD & Blu-ray Duplicators are manual tower duplicators that range from one to 15 writer drives, each of which operates independently of a PC, providing businesses a quick and inexpensive way to make multiple copies of CDs and DVDs. In an industry first, each of the new models allow users to transfer image files directly from a PC to the duplicator’s internal hard drive, saving users the time and effort usually required to produce a master disc for each project.
