It would be great if you could share how you produced this. Did you shoot this 5x and then supperimposes it together? What hardware (camera, audio rec) and software (vid/audio editing) was used?

I'm forwarding a link to your vids to all my family and friends. JINX, Happy 2011 from San Francisco, Ca.


Come on, Scott! That's five different people! You know what they say: all Asians look alike. I'm kidding, of course. After all, I'm Asian myself and doesn't anyone look like me, thank goodness. But, hey Scott, you're as American as they come.

Absolutely excellent. I sat there mesmerised. So wish I had vocals like you. I will have a look at your information about how you made it as I play around a little with video editing effects ( for fun only). Thanks for sharing it.

Thank you so much for all your kind words! The video effect is known as cloning....and you don't have to use a green screen as long as I don't overlap my other self. So I had to do some careful measurements to make sure that every "Jinx" did not take too much space in his jigging.

I blogged about it at http://www.jinxchin.com/wordpress

I basically shot myself 5 times.....although in practice I had to shoot myself a lot more than that...to get the takes right haha! Then later in my video editor (Vegas Video),the five "Jinxes" were composited together.

My real job right now has nothing to do with music at all.....so doing music is my way of staying sane!

Again....here's to an awesome 2011!

Taike , man, and all this time I thought you were caucasian , married to an asian woman, with your family residing in Taiwan. Happy Lunar New Year Feb 3 to you and your family in advance. I'm 4th gen Chinese American so guess I'm American as the rest in this wonderfully diverse melting pot we call the USA.

I don't know what's more impressive, your singing talent or your video/audio editing talent. Both are amazing, and thanks for sharing this New Year treat.

Scott, I am caucasian but have Chinese citizenship. In fact, I've spent 28 years in Taiwan (23 years as a citizen), 2 years in Laos vs. 20 years in my country of origin.

I'll be leaving for Taiwan on January 5. I love the pace of life, peace and tranquility, culture and traditions, and the unspoiled beauty of Laos. Oh, and I love my food hot, hot, hot!

Gong xi fa cai!

and 'Happy New Year' back to you too Taike.

note: in case anybody's curious, 'Gong xi fa cai' is a chinese traditional New Years greeting roughly translated, "Congratulations and be prosperous."
