Noticed the Drastic Change in VideoLane.com Website?

2008-12-29T13:50:00.004+08:00

The whole VideoLane.com 100-page website has been reduced to one single page.

This is a temporary measure as our site is being rebuilt on a new web host.

YES! The website was hacked and all data is gone. I cannot rely on the web hosting company any more. This was about the fifth time being hacked though I have taken all security measures. What's worse was there were no server backups at all!

So is business as usual?

Positively speaking, NO.

We are currently swamped with DVD DUPLICATION service jobs and backlogs of EVENT VIDEOS and MARKETING VIDEOS to edit.

Any new in coming jobs will have to wait till next year! :)

Every cloud has a silver lining.

The hacker struck at a timely moment where we are about to introduce a new website revamp anyway.

With the revamp are new value-added video services like Internet Video Marketing, Video-on-Demand and Live Video Event. (More value-adds are in the pipeline... cannot mention now).

Of course we are still shooting videos, editing videos, converting videos to DVDs and duplicating DVDs.

For speedier response from us at this time, please email us using the contact form in the new one-page website http://VideoLane.com.

Happy Holidays!

It is filled with Duplication Service price and package description details.

I gather it is more convenient to contact us without leaving the information.

Couple Regrets Not Hiring A Wedding Videographer!

2008-08-15T10:14:00.001+08:00

Watch this couple looking back at their lovely wedding day BUT regret not hiring a wedding videographer.

Highlights of the wedding couple's interview:

The best wedding ever, others pale in comparison.
Pictures were great but there's nothing to relive the moment.
Video footage from friends and relatives didn't help to relive the day.
Thought that hiring just a good wedding photographer would be enough.
Felt like missing the first dance more than anything else. Pictures didn't help.
With pictures you go "oh ya", but with video you are seeing it happen.
Pictures are nice but video is a completely different thing.
The visuals and sounds capture the feelings and emotions.
Advice to Grooms: Hire a Wedding Videographer, it will make your wife very happy.

I have heard this said many times myself... and yet couples still splurge on wedding photography and scrimp on wedding videography.

If you know of friends planning their wedding, show them this video.

Watch Two "Made In China" Corporate Video Productions...

2008-07-17T19:24:00.000+08:00

China's businessmen are serious about expanding to the world and is using Singapore as a stepping stone. We have been busy producing and updating corporate videos for these enterprising companies.

Here are two newly uploaded videos you can watch.

The first video is cleverly edited with mostly stock footage and the second involves flying and filming in four provinces within five days.

Do you know that video naturally appeals to people’s emotions, making it more persuasive than the logical appeal of printed information. That is one big reason why corporate video works and all businesses must have one.

3 Days of Videography at the Singapore Employee Benefits Conference

2008-06-27T14:59:00.003+08:00

The inaugural Singapore Employee Benefits Conference 2008 or SEBC for short.

Being an entrepreneur myself, I learnt some valuable HR lessons while shooting this event.

Take great care of good employees and know what generation Y wants from the boss.

Videography Frenzy at World Cities Summit

2008-06-24T21:57:00.001+08:00

The World Cities Summit is a huge event here in Singapore. Shooting this event is not a straightforward task.

Held at Suntec City Convention Centre, the summit consists of talks after talks, back to back.

The real challenge for the videographer is to capture each talk in different locations.

We have to deploy 4 video crew to cover the the event, hopping from room to room, ballroom to theater, 2nd floor to 6th floor and back to 2nd floor.

It was quite a frenzy and there was no break at all for the working party.

There is great satisfaction though, seeing a happy client get their DVD video at the end of the same day.

3 Nights of Video Coverage at the Singapore Arts Festival Closing Ceremony

2008-06-23T12:39:00.001+08:00

Comedy, romance, mystery, a robot, a fish bone and a giant hot fireball. That was what made the outdoor performance last night so spectacular. Audience packed every available standing space. We, the video crew, were lucky to be given a spacious media box. 3 nights with 3 different guest-of-honors gracing the event. The Lunatics put up an entertaining stage-on-water act at the Bedok Reservoir for the Closing Ceremony of the Singapore Arts Festival 2008.

The 3 Tai Tais Loved Being Filmed... in the MRT!

2008-06-01T17:09:00.000+08:00

I was part of the paparazzi chasing after these three Tai Tais. They were not camera-shy at all, pulling in passers-by to strike a pose. The ladies could even strike a conversation with any stranger in the train. Ok, there were other strangers that tailed them too. Coming from three different fashion eras, the trio caught the curious eyes of the weekend crowd in the Singapore MRT (travelling along Dhoby Ghaut - Orchard - City Hall). All part of an interactive play in the Singapore Arts Festival 2008. Go catch some events, you will enjoy the experience. I did, even though I was working. - Adrian Lee, Event Videographer Singapore, http://VideoLane.com.

Splashing Wet in Little India - Singapore Arts Festival Videography

2008-05-31T23:36:00.000+08:00

A long wet night it was in Little India. My shoes were soaked to the toes. The audience turn out was great though. There were some empty spaces due to soggy mud. (Got to strategically position my video camcorder to make the audience seem like one whole). The show went on without another drop. Audience were cheery with the 2 MCs giving light-hearted moments to what seems like a muti-racial cultural dance show. Wayang Kulit in English! Very entertaining! This was my first experience. Go catch the rest of the events at the Singapore Arts Festival 2008. You will enjoy the experience. - Adrian Lee, Event Videography in Singapore.
