Teh Manis di Beranda, lyric video sample

Style and material

A calm Indonesian song about a slow morning: the smell of wet leaves, light coming in through the window, a small smile, a day that feels close, sweet tea on the veranda, rain keeping us company, no need to hurry and a morning that is still long. That is the song “Teh Manis di Beranda”. The mood is warm and gentle. A macro food photograph: a cream plate on a wet banana leaf with fried banana fritters, cinnamon, star anise and a wooden spoon of palm sugar, with tea glasses, a clay teapot and tropical fruit in other scenes. Every sung line is lettered in a different material on a different surface: caramel drizzled on the plate, rice flour sifted on a teak window sill, caramel written on a wooden tray, tea brushed on a rattan tray beside a folded umbrella, and letters carved into a wooden board. The last scene returns to the plate of the first. The scenes were chosen from the words of the song, such as the wet leaves, the window, the tea on the veranda, the rain and the long morning. Made with Milamo from an Indonesian song. In Indonesian: video lirik, lirik lagu, buat video lirik dari lagumu.
