great cinematography. I think the film grain/damage effect sort of ruining it though.. I think it will look better without it.

the girl is perfect with this concept! she's just got that "look". make-up also supports it really well.

all in all, I'm impressed.. well done!

Excellent. Except for the color, the mood was like from the Movie " Love, Lust..." can't recall the title now.

Great work Ian.

Thanks for the comments, guys!

All credits should go to Elvira, my wife (a.k.a. the director). She directed everything from costumes, body movement/gestures, style, etc. I'm not a big fan of film grain/damages, but I'm using it anyway to match the 'vintage-feel' of the song and the style. The storyline is a bit 'cheesy' because we intended to....that's the way oldies movies are, right? :D

@Richard: The (chinese) symbols means 'Soon'.... btw I can't write anything in Chinese actually (although I'm a Chinese)...hehe..

Again, thanks for watching! :D
