Hello, would like to share this imaginary story I made up for my boss/mentor (Name is Mr. Sonny Hernandez aka WKD666). Met him at my first job as video editor I was there on and off as freelance since 2004 until 2018 (when he passed away) - office was called The Living Asia Channel.
Made this during the time of his wake when I got home after the first day of his wake and was not sure how to feel about it.
This avMix, are a bunch of tracks and videos that I got from Youtube and an experiment on transitions as treatment for the visuals and taking small bits of parts of tracks that I am familiar with the feels of almost part of my intuition, that may have resonated with me at one point in my moments when I would sometimes listen to them in a loop vibing every detail in a chill enjoyable mode. Was not really aware that I would be using them one day to express my grief for someone that was genuinely generous teacher in his craft.
This WKD666 kept encouraging me almost like an underground accomplice in approving my crazy eyes treatments that I try to sneak in some projects, ones that I had some freedom to do so.
My works usually look like shit technically for most mainstream media standards, which I am aware of and if I need to follow commands, feedback or criticism from or for a friend or for a paid commissioned job that I agreed to do then I do it. But here and whenever I have opportunity, just really enjoy and find calmness with feeling, improvising, dumping or weaving the energy and intention that i try to express.
Booo! Sorry you have to endure long rambling monologue of me getting defensive by explaining why my e-mo digest is weird hehhe. Be like, digging three layers of my grave deeper in the hole haha... im feeling like deleting the long explanation and just let whoever watches take it as how they feel or see it.
ps. his license plate number is WKD 666
ENJOY or NOT !
