Members Reauchambeau Posted August 16, 2012 Members Share Posted August 16, 2012 Is this your professional opinion as a corporate sound guy? I'm freelance, I work with bands that play corporate functions. I'm not corporate. that's a weird question, did I upset in you in that thread? are you a "sensitive" type?

Right about now is where Nicolas Cage is ashamed that he was born in your place of residence. Then again, I have about 20 more "broken links" I could pull out if needed.

Ahhh Koreans have no sense of humor, fair enough. Do you really think American give a flying {censored} about Nicholas Cage though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a Swedish-Armenian mix who lived in San Gabriel for the first 20 years of my life, and my Nicolas Cage reference was nothing more than a pointless link to Long Beach. Excuse my slight thread derailing while I clear that up. Peace.I think my yet-to-be-posted broken links might be fixed. I'll check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will post more, if I need to prove my point further, hehe. And yeah I'm white indeed, and I was as blond as Shavo Odajian's braided beard in my younger years. I guess the point of my wallpapering of this thread with K-Stars is my obstinate assertion that for many women, normal application of minimal makeup is the best thing next to none. However, those who grow accustomed to daily applying paintball-melee-loser faces probably won't want to head in that direction. We grow accustomed to what we see and something new tends to freak us all out, as Hollywood has shown us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Ultradust Posted August 17, 2012 Members Share Posted August 17, 2012 Good man. I've a question - why are so many of the adverts on Korean tv accompanied with a song that sounds like a rip off of Sigur Ros Hoppipolla? A reasonable question. The answer is that many companies here as of late really like piano ostinato lines accompanied by dramatic build ups and stuff to add emotion to ads. Variations on Coldplay's Clocks (some ridiculously blatant) were another local commercial phenomenon that saw about 3-4 different appearances (from different companies) from 2008 to 2010. I won't beat around the bush (since you've probably heard my SIII ads more than once)...In no less than three promotional pieces (although 2/3 weren't for TV) I wrote in the past 2 years for a number of different clients I was requested to use Hoppipola as a primary reference, and had to take an extreme amount of care to skirt the melodic phrasing and predictable chord inversions to avoid trouble, through it all discussing all relative components (use of a different melody's motif in specific repetition, contrasting overall melodic phrasing, completely different chord progressions) with musicologists and promo staff to steer clear of trouble. As someone who was active in the K-Pop scene for over 15 years as a songwriter/arranger, I can tell you that unlike many a peer, I have always refused to rip-off another artists (a few times to my undoing), but I know how to recreate arrangement elements in a song that will leave similar impressions...Which ultimately is the goal. I have simply trained myself to know how to steer clear of danger, and the following three principles are always on my mind: 1. Don't be an idiot and copy melodies. Ever. 2. Similar chord progressions (even while using a reference piece's choice of instrumentation) are "safe", but non-musical people invariably WILL cry foul. 3. Play it safe, even when told to do otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan. Posted August 17, 2012 Members Share Posted August 17, 2012 i just talked to a guy who came back from korea. he said it was funny that when south korea would put up a flag, north would put up a bigger flag, and then south would put up an even bigger flag, etc until they have these ginormous flags that have to be taken down when it rains because the polls can't support them. crazy koreans. also i dated a half korean. korean bbq is bomb. she was nuts though.

The biggest part of that incident the guy was referring to involved the negotiating room at the Panmunjeom DMZ, on a table 25 years ago. Both sides eventually ceded to replace them with equally sized smaller flags, but they each side nonetheless maintained flags on both sides of the DMZ that are rather huge, and just South of Gaeseong you can easily see the massive one that the North still flies: All 600lbs of fabric. Remember that Korea is a young democracy that is still working through some crazy times led by despots and corrupt military leaders from 1960~1992. I've been in Korea since well before the first properly elected president and can tell you it was a much different world back then with things you'd find hard to believe if you were to visit today.
