If I don't die of old age first, one day I might be as good as you - that was fantastic Santo!

Awesome stuff man! It wasn't till like 1/3rd the way in when I realized it was all a re-inaction. I loved it, don't get me wrong, but was a little disappointed it was acting and theatrics. However....as soon as I saw the real footage included at the end- that really made the clip. Amazing piece- bravo, and congratulations! I just got married this year, it was an wonderful experience- probably the single best day of my life. I wish you both the best! Thanks for sharing!

Excellent work Susanto, both with the proposal and the video. The ending was strong and emotional.
Great work. |

This was incredible in both concept and realisation! I don't know why, but the scene at 2:15 looked totally awesome to me. I watched it over again and again just to find out why I am stuck with it, and still I can't say!
What more can be said? Stunning! It seems that it was the year for many of us! -:)

Lol Dimitris !
Congrats to you on your wedding too!!! scene 2:15 is the movie-making scene. I think it sort of reflects to all of us as videographers in a way :P Thanks for commenting. Santo

Susanto, well done my man, well done. This was an excellent piece of story-telling where nearly everything worked perfectly. I especially enjoyed the 'flashback' sequence that you edited in during the ring presentation. For some reason, cutting back to those previous scenes was just really powerful I thought. It just really sealed the emotion and purpose.
Again, excellent job, and congrats on the marriage. I wish you both a very long and happy one, just like my wife and are having. d;-) |

Thanks again Travis, I'm glad you enjoyed this one. Dewi cried when she watched the draft, so I was sure we did pretty well on the shoot :P

Santo...
+1 another fan of this video. Normally I show my wife all of your work (so she can see what I strive for)... But since you chose such a clever way to ask your wife to marry you, it would only make me look bad :-) Steve |

I would pay money to see this in a theater. Beautifully done!
You should enter this in a short film competition. AND Congrats!

That is an absolutely fantastic film. I had my own surprise proposal for my wife (captured on camera as well!) and I love re-watching it even more than the wedding footage. Not because the wedding footage is bad, but because the emotions of the proposal are so intense, even more so those of a surprise proposal. :-)
One day I may post my engagement video, though I have come so far in technical skills since then (and needless to say, I wasn't the cam op for it). Fantastic video. I loved the use of retelling the story, and the surprise live (multi-cam even!) footage at the end was the most emotional and impactfull (is that a word) part. |

Stephen: There is always anniversary surprises! :P
Robert: That's a big compliment mate, thanks so much Jason: Yep, we also treasure the real footage so much. It just contains so much emotion. But FYI, it wasn't multicam. I just moved the camera from top cupboard to the table since I guessed that the cam wouldn't be able to see dewi's face in full because she sat down. so I kinda moved it when she was about to watch the video (subtly) She said she didn't realise that I moved the camera or even knowing there was any camera at all which is good :)
