Trust your scopes - and work to that skin tone line!

Oops. I have to say, that colour correction is the single most difficult thing to get right... and it all stems from getting it right at source. The only reason I mention it, is to help you in the long run. The earlier start, the quicker you can start learning from your mistakes. Im battling with colour grading at the moment and a lot of that comes from getting your colour correction right... and I'm still not great at it. I can get it down in perfect conditions... but lets face it, videos shot like this tend to never be in perfect conditions. If you want my absolute critique... I have to say I hate the opening titles. Sometimes static titles is where it's at. I always ask myself this... "Would I see this on the TV"? If the answer is no, you are probably putting yourself in the Microsoft Movie Maker camp. A lot of the transitions and special fx that are in the core offerings of applications are there because they have to be there because of what competitor products have included. Doesn't mean you have, or should use them. Digital zoom is generally poor unless you are pixel binning from say 4k to a delivery format of 1080. Try to avoid at all costs - I tend to allow for 10% crop if I'm going into lossy crops but I would always choose to crop from 4 or 6k footage down to 1080. I would wager your best future purchases would be lights by the way.. the more light you can get to your sensor the better... and and as you get your head around it all, you'll realise that the last thing you want is an 8 bit camera!

Bravo. In reference to your statement in the first post - remember that this game is all about practice. And done is preferable to things never making a final render. Thats a decent effort there - obviously the constraints of the source footage are coming into play as you zoom and crop - but you know what, so what? Next advice would be looking at a bit of colour correction to get your skin tone a bit more realistic... But you know what, that's already a hell of a lot better than most bands will ever put out... So well done!

Absolutely, SEISS and Furlough payment scheme can be added to the list.

I didn't think much of the dialogue in Debbie Does Dallas.

Sounds like a quote from Independence Day.

Got to get them sterilised and micro chips implanted somehow... (tongue firmly in cheek)

It's all sewn up. These people don't get into politics for the good of the people. Lets face it, it's pretty much impossible for the average person to get into politics. Who can afford not to work the day job when they canvas? All of these MPs tend to be inherited/married into wealth or sit on boards where they turn up one day a month whilst creaming the profits.... So that they can get a position in government, not for the salary (lets face it, the MP salary is peanuts to these folk) - but for the opportunity to grease the wheels of corruption to land more cash in their coffers. Not a lot changes... Whatever the party, the outcome is the same.

Totally. It does. But why would backhanded deals, corruption and cronyism this year not being called out this year be different to any other year?

Its all a bit cringe having an opening song imho. Just remember, Showaddywaddy went on to the Dam Busters Theme.

Excellent - shall have a look at that as a boredom killer 😛 Thanks again.

Oh man, that’s fabulous. Nicely done. I don’t suppose (pretty please) you have your transcription that you would be willing to share?

Its a beautiful thing!

So where is this video? You know what they say... a thread without err... videos...

That just looks how I imagine the OP one should look... apart from I had seafoam green in mind. It's kinda got that 50 futuristic (oxymoron, I know) look about it? Like all the retro US car styling.

As a collective, we did an experiment to try as many beans brands as we could... Branston came out on top. As for the salt thing... well, it's odd how you can pick up thousands of views from musicians yet none of them can bring themselves to comment or acknowledge. A little salty eh?

Err... funny you should mention that... I joke.

Despite my name, I dont use it anymore!

You like Warwick then I presume?

Gosh. This is terrible. Live now.

I would argue that the money you'd spend on a Hellborg pre, you'd be better off spending on a "name" channel strip.

The headstocks do set off my OCD. Non flowing, not evenly weighted.

And speaking of paddles... Wal (4 string design)

Headstocks... Alleva Copolla Lodestone Fretking Reverend Musicman Bongo Moollon You get the idea...
