Nho Mua Thu Ha Noi

Nho Mua Thu Ha Noi

Every time I listen to Tuan Ngoc’s gorgeous rendition of Trinh Cong Son’s "Nho Mua Thu Ha Noi," it urges me to do a slideshow. From Trinh’s picturesque visual lyricism to Duy Cuong’s intimate arrangement to Tuan Ngoc’s intricate yet effortless phrasing, this tune strikes a perfect balance between words, music and vocals. Imaginary and motion would add another dimension to the song and that is where I come in.

Bien Nho

Bien Nho

If it wasn’t for my eldest sister who risked her life, I wouldn’t be living in this country right now. To show my appreciation, this piece goes out to her and all the boat people. This is not a political statement, but rather a reflection of an unforgettable journey. Music inspired by Trinh Cong Son and Khanh Ly.

Tinh Hoai Huong

Tinh Hoai Huong

This piece inspired by Duc Tri’s orchestration for Pham Duy’s "Tinh Hoai Huong" performed by Duc Tuan. Although I had the music in mind, I didn’t have any photo to work with until Ao Trang's 2008 calendar came out. Many thanks to Hoai Nam for allowing me to use his breathtaking photography.

Ao Dai Trang A Oi

Ao Dai Trang A Oi

I was approached by the folks at Ao Trang to create a slideshow to showcase their ao dai (Vietnamese traditional dress) photography. After going through their work, Thuy Tien’s simple, folksy "A Oi" came to mind. The two turned out to be a perfect complement to one another.

Bonjour Vietnam

Bonjour Vietnam

I had no idea that this piece was a mega hit until my server exceeded its limit. The simple slideshow was viewed by millions of Vietnamese people around the world and in Viet Nam.

Vassar

Vassar

I thought it would be cool to show off Vassar’s beautiful campus with some techno beats. Tomoyasu Hotei’s "Battle w/o Honor or Humanity" did bring a fresh, exciting vibe to the photos.

Tinh Khuc Buon

Tinh Khuc Buon

Ngoc Lan’s emotional rendition of Ngo Thuy Mien’s "Tinh Khuc Buon" is incomparable. She had that melancholy touch in her delivery that I wanted to capture that with her nostalgic eyes.
