@antiego1 Unfortunately this was all shot on a 480i handycam from at least five years ago ;(

@wongjp Shame. Still excellent though.

100,000 times better than the original.

A work of art. You deserve more credit for this.

A song you can sit alone and drift with your thoughts.

@geographypony Thank you, geographypony :-) BOC is my favorite artist duo. Their music is incredible.

Great F-ing video. You told a visual story that was simply incredible. I couldn't imagine a better visual representation of BOC's remix.

@belgoleb Glad you liked that :-) After shooting in Japan, I printed out stills of the shots to transition to so that we could match close enough. One of the takes worked out beautifully.
