Here’s the brand new video I produced for How to Build a Life Raft by Dancefloor Storytellers, Saturday Night Gym Club, it was shot on a tiny budget on my 5d2 and edited in Final Cut Pro, look out for their debut EP this summer, it promises to be off the old heezy, blow ya horn!
Tutorial video on how to create music within the timeline of Final Cut Pro, a technique pioneered by Lasse Gjertsen about 4 years ago in his video Amateur. it can also be seen in action in my iPhone Music Apps video. It’s not the most entertaining video I’ve created but it does explain the most important parts of the process. I can only apologise for my distinct lack of charisma during this tutorial.
Feels like ages since I’ve done anything creative, work has been really dull lately, churning out corporate internals or swinging spanners for cash, this shoot for Heat vs Light for their incredible There is a Spark was highly enjoyable, I love this band and I’m very thankful for the opportunity to work with such talented young men. These stills are from the shoot, more news on the finished video as it unfolds.
Shot some test footage for the Slave Called Shiver promo today, it’s turning into a bit of a nightmare and I just want a huge baseball bat of inspiration to crack me across the ankles.
I shot a very rough lip-sync with Alice who’s playing Alicia or is at least proposed to. I’m hoping the whole thing is just going to come together this week, all my plans seem to fall on their backside. I don’t mean to sound so down about it, i just want something to jump out at me. All my venue requests have been turned down, I’ve contacted several commercial property letting agents today and they’ve all given me a big fat no on ‘indemnity grounds’. Frustrating. Ah well, onward.
