Would you recommend to film neutral or to film with the comp. settings leveled up?
Did you use any Filters?

I guess it would depend on what you are looking for. I shot all the beginning stuff with the color in camera but got stuck when trying to tweak the colors because it made the image real noisy. I probably should have kept the same over all color but just de-saturate it in camera for later post re-saturation. I'm shooting tests for another video for next month for a new artist on a major label and they want a specific look so what I'm going to do is shoot flat with a slight coloring in camera leaning towards what I want to get the highlights the tint I want. Its whats in my head for now, the test might make me do something else. The interiors are no problem for the look but they want wads of people in the street so I have to test that with natural lighting.
I use filters here and there but nothing specific that I use all the time. I used a softFX warm on the interior of the beginning of this video to give color to all the white walls in the apartment.
 
We just had a performance last night at crash mansion and even though it was just one of the artist that could make it, he crushed it. He did a WAR acapella about the troops and the crowd went crazy. Good sh!t.
 
New Performance Nov 15th 8pm @ Reals Lounge 145th st and Lenox ave NYC. They will be performing the song from this music video.
 
We had a great showcase the other night and were asked to another one on the 29th. We also were asked to be on a local hip-hop radio program on their maiden show Sat. Dec 1st. 10pm. on 91.9FM.

The music video also just got on Video Music Boxs rotation. I don't know what channel that is though.

Grandmaster Flash has also seen the video and really liked it so hes "showing it to some people" and to expect a call.

Not bad for unsigned artists and a manager that doesn't know what the hell he is doing. We are not making any money yet but we are having fun.
 
Whats up Jay.
Met this guy that works there and he showed them the video and they liked it. Now I'm trying to find out who works at FUSE.

I'm hoping we can build something. I'm getting great feedback so far.
