Traditional end of New Year Celebrations in Tong Fuk Village, Hong Kong.

1 Dragon, 4 Lions and 2 Unicorns performed for the 2,000 villagers of Tong Fuk and guests from neighbouring Lo Wai, San Wai and Shui Hau villages.

Daytime worshipping of Village Temples, Gods/Goddesses, followed by 8 century old traditional 'Big Basin' meal.

An event usually reserved solely for the Tang and Chan clans of Tong Fuk village, I was very honoured to have been invited to join their festivities.

Hope you enjoyed a little bit of a fast vanishing tradition.

Thank you for watching.

    Yes, I am originallly from HK 39 years ago and I love HK.

    Pete, I like to hear your comments on the Sanyo HD1000 and the iMovie, I am thinking to switch to Apple.

    Once again your videos are A+.
  • Furkids plus 2 years ago
    :D Fellow HK'ger!

    Thanks again for the compliments Pebbles. I am certain that your switch to Apple will be a wonderful one!

    If there's any place you would like me to tape of HK, previous home, school etc, I would be more than happy to do so!

    Hi Pete, out of curiosity which video mode did you record this in, 720P 60 or 30, or 1080i? so far I have had mixed results from 1080i - using JES deinterlacer to convert 1080i 59.94 to HDV25/50i for inclusion in FCP6. Finally what did you export this final movie as? Its so clean. Really nice work ; )
  • Furkids plus 2 years ago
    Thank you for your kind words Adam!

    So far, all of my clips were shot at 720P 60fps.
    Edited in iMovie HD and exported as H.264.
    Used the Vimeo suggested compression guidelines vimeo.com/forums/topic:4331 with the exception of using a Data rate of 5000 kbits/sec instead of 3000 kbits/sec for a hopefully better quality.

    Hope this helps!
