UB CHOIR “MAKING THE VIDEO”

The University of Buea Choir known generally as UB Choir shoots amazing videos in three restless days. From all evidence, God was with us.

By Che Elvis

DAY ONE:

Tole neighborhood

We started a little late than expected but much of what we set for was achieved. The village setting was used for the Grass field medley and the tea background was well exploited.

The south African songs were done last and just before sunset, a thousand birds were directly over head in the sky while the tapes were turning, also a cock crew just as a chorister was tuning the Grass field medley Ikafaweh. I just know its God’s way of saying “Am with you guys”

DAY TWO:

The Mayor’s Residence

This was supposed to be the most active day but unfortunately it rained very heavily in the morning. We were almost frustrated at UB Junction and we kept singing.

This however turned into a blessing as the rains made the backgrounds even brighter and colorful. Just take a look

DAY 3:

Molyko

Shooting on the 3^rd day was done in two phases; during the day on campus and at night in UB Junction. It was certainly the most tiring day and lucky enough the work was complete. The last shot was taken at 1: AM

It started with a slight rain “God’s blessing”, for about 15minutes. This rain touched all choristers since we were a little off shade and just like magic we became more motivated.

The first shot featured Mofa and Ms Justin “Ma Jus”. How nice! Take a look

There were so many people behind the scene, both in the field and in the studio. You can see the extensive list in the DVD or VCD’s which are already scrambled for in CD shops.
