BIG NOSE MONKEY
2 years ago
In 2006 we were looking in Borneo for the last remaining and very rare and shy Proboscis Monkeys. We did found some in Sabah and Sarawak Malaysia. These people call him the Orang Belanda (The Dutchman) because of his huge nose and pot belly are as big as from the first Dutch sailors around in the 16th century. With a rate of 300 football fields per hour, their habitat is being cleared for palm oil plantations. Just edited some raw footage specially for Vimeo to start with a longer docu. Read all about it and our blog with route info at: ProboscisMonkey.org. We specially did not put music under their unique honking sounds.

I have been thinking about this video technically. What format did you master in, and what format did you render this too? I have been struggling with the H.264 codec to make my videos play as well as yours do. Did you upload a QuickTime file here at Vimeo.com to obtain the streaming results you currently have playing.

Prachtige film en foto's. Ik heb er 2 gepikt om bij mijn weblog over Maleisië en Borneo te gebruiken. Ik heb jouw naam er wel in gezet. Groetjes,

The sounds of the jungle (mangrove) came out very well (what mic?). Didn't hear the chainsaw, but is it that bad over there?
What does 'orang belenda' mean?
Voor 'mic' bedoelde ik eigenlijk: welke microfoon gebruikt op uw sony, maar ik denk dat die er standaard op zit? Groetjes van uit Vlaanderen.
