Happy Jack Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 What was the cameraman doing when he did that shot down your fretboard? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] That was quite ridiculous - the director was very 'arty' and so for that shot I had to play the DB at a stupid angle (45 degrees to the ground) so he could point the camera down the neck! The whole video took about 5 hours to shoot as there were so many angles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarky Posted February 28, 2011 Author Share Posted February 28, 2011 Here's our other Youtube clip - not really a video, lots of live shots set against a cover of the old song 'Speaking of happiness'. This and 'Rain on my foosteps' are our two slow, moody songs - we do more up tempo stuff as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arsenic Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 (edited) Just listened to some more of your stuff on MySpace and YouTube - really like it. Mrs. A loves the promo video - who was the director? She has just commented that she would like to see some of their other work (I guess she's a bit "arty" as well). I love the whole Baron Samedi and his Zombie musicians thing you have going on there. Edited February 28, 2011 by arsenic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The director is Christian Murray, who came to us through shared contacts on the South Coast (half of the band are from the Brighton/Chichester/Bognor stretch of the coast and we recorded it at the theatre in Chichester University). Cost us nothing as the drummer is a lecturer at the Uni and the director did it as a favour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris_b Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 How do you fit that lot onto the 12 Bar stage? We had trouble as a 4 piece! Nice band by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat Burrito Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Nice to hear the bass right up there! If I was the director I'd have made the upright (& player!) much more of a feature Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdwardHimself Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Very nice. I would have said you could have done with a few more shots but then again being a bass player i'm probably biased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was surprised when I saw the final cut how little the DB featured, especially compared to the drums. The director said right from the off how beautiful my DB looked and how it should feature ... and yet the only shots where the camera lingers are those ones looking down the fingerboard. Still, the video was essentially done for free so can't complain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGreek Posted March 17, 2011 Share Posted March 17, 2011 This would sound really good with some machine gun slap bass going on...with some Rotasound strings.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
