I think it is still possible to use the baby photos. But you can just change your theme. To something like growing then you met each other. And ya perhaps instead of using similarities you can vent on differences. There is a saying that goes: It is similarities that brought you together. But it is the differences that makes you grow. So it will be although you two are similar and yet different,you all ended together and grow in the relationship, to understand compromise, give and take. Hope this helps! Chill~ Don't so stress. =) I know how it feels to only have weekends. Mine is in the army too. =)

thanks supei! i really got pretty much of inspirations from the saying you quoted!
"It is similarities that brought you together. But it is the differences that makes you grow."

i think it is still okay to use the baby photos to show similarity. maybe its up to your text or voice narration. eg: u could use your kindergarden PAP photos of how you all attended the same school but different batch, or even different pictures but sharing the same personality traits instead of same activities. =)

i thought of using the graduation photos as well.. but apparently.. i did not attend kindergarten at PAP and so i did not have graduation photo.. and later on in poly.. my batch was just one batch before the latter ones that has the chance to put on the robe.. which he did as well.. haha.. kinda ironic actually ah.. =x

I am thinking that you could said despite all the differences, that are still similar things? So many show the differences first. Just a thought.

hey, I like the ideas of the baby photos! Don't abandon it! I think it will be a waste. Yes, I do agree that using differences of the both of you can carry out the concept better. I'm sure you can do it. All the best! ^__^

i guess i'll try to spot the slightest similarities within the differences we have in our baby photos.. and this way.. i wouldn't have to totally abandon that idea.. (:

Using baby photos would be a nice complement to the story.
I was wondering if the photos will all be those that both faces the camera? I think it will be nicer if the images are of the characters doing something together instead of posing. That would make the scenes more natural.

oh yesyes.. the photos will definitely not be all self-portrait.. as i've mentioned.. my photo-taking session will be postponed to next week with the help of my dearest friend.. (:

I think you should keep your 'similarities' idea. Perhaps you could also show some differences between you guys and in these differences with how you both complement one another in the end?
I was thinking about building a story about both of you are one anothers' lock and key. haha ok duno if this helps.

i like the lock and key idea too.. hmmmm.. but it'll be pretty hard for me to incorporate it into my very fairytale-like concept.. but thanks for the idea!

I like the baby photos idea too. It adds a nicer touch to your story. And maybe you might wanna sepia or black and white the hospital photo cos it looks a bit modern.. it looks like you guys met somewhere near the hospital.
And just wondering how do you plan to execute the looking forward to the future photos?

jacyie huiyi. * defends...
i was thinking of.. the entire concept developed with a nostalgic feel in the beginning with sepia or slightly-tined effect.. and changing and slowly developing into full color depicting the start of our LOVE story.. and finally.. the future will be achieved with photoshsop effects of the blurry and cloudy surroundings of the environment.. enhancing surrealism.. i'm still working on it though..

Is there a particular angle that you want to shoot your video from? Or is it just a chronological log of your love story? Maybe you could attempt shooting your story in light of the difficulties he being in army has place on the relationship? Baby photos are always a nice thing to have. We all look cute when we are younger : )
Cheers !

i'm intending to work on it through an outsider view.. so pronouns like they, he, she will be used instead in the text and narration..


jacyie huiyi. * finally noted...
with all these comments i get from everyone of you.. i guess i'll try to sort out the similarities and differences.. then compromise and will still be able to make the entire thing flow afterall.. (:

in addition.. cute drawings and elements will added using after effects to further enhance the focus of the clip.. (:
