Wong Fu Productions talks ISA, Leehom Wang, music videos, & more

Wong Fu Productions talks ISA, Leehom Wang, music videos, & more

channelAPA.com had an opportunity to connect with the guys of Wong Fu Productions at the 2011 ISA SF Bay Area over the weekend. We talked with Wes, Ted, and Phil about what it means to them to have the International Secret Agents concert in the Bay Area. (They have their roots in the Bay.) The week before ISA SF, Wong Fu Productions was out in Taiwan directing, shooting, and editing a music video for Wang Leehom. Although the trio had a non-stop schedule and was jet lagged, the day before ISA SF they shot and edited a short film for the concert with a bunch of their friends. (If you want to see online, you need to help Wong Fu Productions reach 1 million subscribers on YouTube.) Ted, Phil, and Wes have a lot of different opportunities open to them. Some of the things in the works include a feature film, a high quality web series, and music videos for Magnetic North and Kina Grannis. With all these projects, they are still able to work with a wide range of budgets from zero to infinity and beyond.

None of this can happen without the fans. If you want to see how Wong Fu fans are like in the SF Bay Area, watch til the end of the video. (you’ll probably see it in a future Wong Fu Weekends.)

Lyrics to Show Me Where Ya Noms At by Songs To Wear Pants To x Hannah Hart

well i’m a cereal killer
like my ice with vanilla
and i always take my meats dried

we need to have a serious taco
don’t touch these chips, they nachos
well i don’t even really mind
(why not)

’cause i got a chip on my shoulder
i guess i’m getting older
your sweet is turning into a spice

so let’s go and get some curry
nobody’s in a hurry
watch out, i’ll put my white on your rice

you know i never stop nommin’
put spaghetti in my chow mein
lock it down with a key lime (pie)

now this track is straight urban
we better put some herbs in
you know that it’s about thyme

for you to show me where your noms at
show me where your noms at
baby gotta palm that

ice cream cheesecake batter up
fatten up, saddle up
if you’re with me, can i have a what?
what! whatcha do with your favorite food
i boast the most toast and got that gravy too
i’ve got no ice here around my neck
but i’ve got spice that’ll make you sweat
so play nice ‘cuz you better better bet
i’m not quite finished yet
now let me double this, you could be covetous
of my bread butter being how i come up with this
but the trouble is, nobody gets
cooking like me, just show me where the oven is
loving this drunk in this kitchen best
cutting up some of this chicken breast
rubbing it up and then down
shove it in now at 350, press start
and then we chill until it’s done
where’s my drank? baby you wait and just maybe i’ll get you another one
it’s such phenomeNOM, join us fu’tha nomathon
think of it as the opposite of when you stop nutrition like it’s ramadan
gotta get your nomming on while i’m dropping bombs to the calmest song
i’m dancing with hannah eating bananas like she’s donkey kong
let’s have a food fight, it’s morsel combat
i see your cream pie on a plate and raise you a straw hat
i’m like a wombat, just wanna get all fat
so if you want that, show me where your noms at

CHORUS

I’ve got some fantasies
and they all involve the cheese
girl it’s you and me
and I wanna please
with my gouda swiss and havartis

oh baby just wait and see
i’ll shred cheddar like it’s real money
it’ll be so cheesy, just lemon squeezy
when it’s you and me

REPEAT AWESOME CHORUS
