I know some people tried with a handful. We had over a hundred. And there's going to be more soon.
I know a lot of you have been waiting for the official video. Well here it is. If you have a Youtube account, rate it please and support us for more in the future.
Pas berejam editing semalam, this is something we're definitely proud of!
The whole thing starts with a stage show of six dancers at the KLCC Center Court, before it's 'invaded' by over 100 dancers.
The video took over 8 hours to upload because I made sure it was the best quality. The file was over 1 GB. Damn... hope you guys like it. Now on to Monday....
PS - If you guys have a blog, share this video ok! Spread the word on Facebook, Myspace or Friendster or whatever applications you have and let's show everyone KL's first real dance flash mob rocked KLCC.
Hats off for an awesome effort by one of our own homeboys :) The video did justice to capture the moment but 1 must be there to truly experience the atmosphere and the priceless expression from the crowd (not to mention the millions of mobiles popping up to record the event... haha!) My only argument is that the video could do without that few "interesting" tags at the end. Thanks and you may remove this comment once rectified.
RunWithMe : that 988 wasn't a flash mob as it was more of a stage show.
but not to be presumptuous we did say it was the first MAJOR dance flash mob.
as for the loading time, well, like you said it was worth it right to watch it in proper quality.
thanks for the kind words... and all you guys too. one bigger one coming up soon.
Anonymous, I think I shared in a previous entry how hard it is to organise a proper flash mob. so this is an introduction to the public and hopefully the authorities.
we thank maxis for backing us - because they're kickstarting dance flash mobs, the dance community is appreciative of it.

International Artists Interviewed In Person Interviews are revealing. And also enlightening. There is an art to approaching interviews, no matter which side you're on. Here are some of the artistes I've been able to interview throughout my professional career. I'm excluding local and Indonesian artistes because then it would be too long. Also those like magicians whom I follow. And the list keeps growing!
