Just wanted to share some personal thoughts and general tips about how I’ve been editing my latest two videos. (GTR Roadtrip and this)
Lately I’ve been a lot more into filming cars. The kind of videos I’m going for now are a blend of cinematics, story, and a bit of commentary — sort of a balance between visuals and narration, with ...

The day we both picked up the car, we both took our “new” cars out for a mini road trip.
He wanted to get a proper feel for his brand-new M3 Touring, and I just needed to figure out how my car felt — how it handled, what needed adjusting, what quirks it had. To be honest, I’d only ever driven it once before — literally from our s...

Thank you all. I will update with new wallpapers every now and then, as many of you have been asking for wallpaper!
All pictures are labelled, 16:9 for PC, and 9:16 for phone, I know phones have different aspect ratio nowadays but I hope these will still work for...
I just got back from my first-ever solo road trip — I yoinked my boss' GTR and drove over 1,500 km across Japan.
Didn’t plan to film at all. I just wanted a few quiet days to drive, clear my head, and enjoy some time off from everything. But somewhere along the way, I decided to bring the camera with me, not to vlog, but to capture. 2025-06-11 01:58:13 +0000 UTC View Post
Recently, I was lucky enough to borrow an Insta360 GO 3S from a friend. I used to have a chest mount for POV filming, but now I’m trying something new — mounting it on my hat for a true first-person view. What do you think? Should I start doing daily/weekly POV-style vlogs on my second channel?
I tend to talk a lot while filming lol, b...

Finally posting this after six months of work, the full visual refresh for the NRT Rent-A-Car website is now officially live.
Pretty much everything you see on the site now—the photos, layout, homepage visuals, and how the cars are displayed—is completely refreshed. I took most of the shots at a nearby gas station (great light...
2025-04-20 04:55:37 +0000 UTC View PostI’m breaking down the intro sequence from my latest video, where I used 3 match cuts to transition between scenes that matches the narration.
I’ll walk you through how I planned each shot, how I matched the movement in the edit, and how you can seamlessly use match cuts to elevate the ...

I recently worked on a super meaningful project—a short documentary about a friend of mine who lives in Yokohama. He’s opened a secondhand shop selling branded bags, and I captured his journey: how he started living in Japan, built his business, and found his passion.
This project fascinated me because I’ve always wanted to create do...

Having a script makes filming and editing so much easier for me. I know exactly what to say, what shots to get, and how to piece everything together. That said, I don’t stick to it word-for-word. Sometimes, things don’t feel as natural when I say them out loud compared to how they sounded in my head while writing. So, I use the script more a...

Since moving into my new apartment, furnishing it has been a creative outlet I never knew I needed. I’m experimenting with different styles, learning what works for ...

My favourite season in Japan, it's getting cooler, you finally get to layer some clothes, and you see red, orange and yellow everywhere.
I went on a 3-day road trip to Fukushima, low-key wanted to go longer but NRT called :)
100% will visit again next year. Might also need someone to help me take some photos lol.
Next month, James (my boss) will be selling the R35 GT-R. Before it goes, I had the chance to take it on one last autumn road trip. Growing up, I never imagined I’d get to drive a supercar, let alone one in Japan. But thanks to this job, I’ve been able to live out a childhood dream.
Before I started working at NRT full-time, I helped J...

If you set the shot well, then every frame in the video should look just as nice :)

Trying to help James with revamping his website, could do a bit of an aesthetic upgrade from his website now.
I know nothing about web design, or building a website, but I have been trying to learn everything on YouTube for the past few weeks.
Also more or less driving a different car every day and going to gas stations around mid...
My parents, my brother and I moved into this exact apartment in the spring/summer of 2008.
It has been 16 years since then. I have graduated from primary school, high school, and university. Just like me, my desk has also changed a lot. My desk may be the reason my entire channel exists, and I have so many good memories in my room. Durin...
It may seem intimidating at first, but if you're starting out or want to try editing on your own, just remember that I also begin with a blank canvas. Then, gradually, you want to add more and more.
Video Layers usually consist of:
1. The Main Video
2. B Rolls/Extra Footage/Overlays
3. Color Grading Adjustment Layers
4. Motion...
I guess everything old is new again :) Here is some footage from a 12-year-old Sony Handycam that a stranger sold me online.
Some specs, if you're a nerd like me:
Sony HDR-CX430
8.9 Megapixels Stills
1080p Recording at 25/50FPS
32GB Internal Memory Storage
55x Optical Zoom (had way too much fun zooming in and out)
5.1ch ...
Well when I say "break" , I'm still carrying the camera everywhere I go, completely worth it though. These are all shot on my phone. More camera pictures to come, just got home and going straight back to editing again!
Love to hear that the prints arrived safe and sound too, I've been getting quite a few private messages for the past wee...
Next video will be filmed on this, my friend Mark gave me his handycam to try out, and after just 5 minutes I fell in love with it. 2 months later I couldn't resist to get one myself. I found this 11 year old handycam in pristine condition online, it was around 100 dollars, the seller was super nice and seems like he took good care of it, and I ...

The first batch of prints will be shipped out on or before July 17th. Thank you all for your orders so far! If you want to get a print for yourself, now's the best chance before they are gone! www.keotsang.com

I have to thank my Patrons for the continuous love and support over the past few years, and for allowing me to send some of my prints to all of you, which in turn gave me a lot of opportunities to try different prints, inks, and paper. And finally, after 4 years of creating content on Instagram and YouTube, I am so excited to announce the launch...

YouTube now allows you to upload three thumbnails at once and helps you test out which thumbnail gets the best result. I have been doing that manually for the past few years, changing out my thumbnail every now and then, and hoping that it drives new traffic to the video and I've seen videos suddenly doing well after playing around with the titl...

In making this video, I had to move around a lot in hot and humid conditions, so I kept things short and simple. I like to follow the 9-shot rule, which means I aim to capture 2 wide shots, 2 establishing shots, 2 mid shots, 2 close-up shots, and 1 creative shot for each location I visit. This gives me plenty of footage to work with during editi...

Born and raised in Hong Kong, 23 years of living here, I still think it's a pretty unique and dynamic city. This is Hong Kong through my eyes, enjoy the video! Even if you'll never visit Hong Kong, I hope I can at least showcase some of this city to you via this video :)
Sorry for the late sneak peak of the video, but I keep finding smol...
This is the biggest batch of prints I did by far, and I'm super happy that I got the chance to send some of you my personal prints on Patreon. So that I can try out different types of paper, and figure out how to ship them out.
I always think in this digital day and age, physical photos still has a quality that cannot be replaced with the...
My friend Luis and I have been planning a group travel together for January 2025, after a lot of consideration with the timing, budget and travel destination. We ended up picking Northern Thailand to go explore together! We'll be visiting Chiang Mai and Pai and wanted y'all to join us on our adventures together :3

My friend was partaking in a drifting competition in Japan and I made a small compilation of his practice sessions with the videos I filmed, I was supposed to take a day off but it was just too fun not to film anything.
He crashed midway through his practice session and luckily nothing serious happened. It was just the back bumper that ...
We might have possibly found the cheapest Airbnb House in Japan, and tried to find something cheaper than $22 per night, but as of now, I think this is the cheapest Airbnb house that you can find in Japan.
The more I travel the Japan the more I wander into places which are literally in the middle of nowhere, and I like it. The peace and s...
My friend visited Hong Kong for the first time a while back and one of the most stupid question popped up in my head. I actually have no idea where I can bring him to.
Maybe it's because I am someone who lives here, everything feels so accessible to a local that there isn't really a sense of urgency to visit the tourist spots (not sure ho...
