Flint is an up and coming band and long time friends of Mimetic Productions and myself.

http://mimeticonline.com/flint/

I was asked to direct their video debut, and after falling in love with the DVX on a feature I shot last year, chose the camera to make their video.

Take a look and would appreciate any feedback you can give.


Also feel free to check in the with the band @ www.flintsite.com

Thanks,

Very nice job.

Cool video. Has that film look. Is this airing on television or just promo for the band?

Wow, loved it. Great mix of the elements, it really kept the video intriguing. Great coloring as well.
How long was the shoot?
What did you post on?

The shoot was 2 days. The first day in the warehouse was LONG. Gathering all the different takes and elements to but on the tv's since you never see the band up close until the end. Plus we built the Dolly overnight the night before the shoot and didn't sleep couldn't help much either in making the day seem longer!

The next night we shot at the cafe. That shoot was from 10pm until 6am. There's some good stills from the set at www.flintsite.com under the media section.

The television effects and the colours were posted in Adobe After Effects.

Let me know if there's anything else! Thanks for the feedback

Re: Flint's "Ahh" Music Video - DVX Shoo

Thanks about the dolly shots... it took some trial and error in the construction... no instructions online but if you emailed me at gavin@mimeticonline.com I'd be happy to walk you through our construction... actually there's a funny clip about how to build it going on this band's DVD that hits stores in a few months.

I really like it. It's always nice to work with a good group and song when your cutting it.

Working with a good band is great. Flint was just signed and this video goes to video networks soon. We're actually weeks away from shooting a video for their second single... so that should be a sign of the fun we had on this set.

Re: Flint's "Ahh" Music Video - DVX Shoo

That video was awesome. How long did it take to add all the tv images in? Was that a plug in for the vertical scroll/distortion on the tv images?

I liked some of the camera work too. Nice dolly moves and fast zooms.

Keep up the good work!

Re: Flint's "Ahh" Music Video - DVX Shoo

Hloy crap? how many hours of rendering did those tv shots take that? Nice colour tones too.
 
Re: Flint's "Ahh" Music Video - DVX Shoo

Re: Flint's "Ahh" Music Video - DVX Shoo

The music sucks, but the video is awesome. Good job!
 
Re: Flint's "Ahh" Music Video - DVX Shoo

Re: Flint's "Ahh" Music Video - DVX Shoo

Well the music sucks so hard that the band got signed and has a video for Much Music and tours soon. ;)
 
Re: Flint's "Ahh" Music Video - DVX Shoo

Re: Flint's "Ahh" Music Video - DVX Shoo

Dood, who cares? They still suck! That's MY opinion.
 
Re: Flint's "Ahh" Music Video - DVX Shoo

Re: Flint's "Ahh" Music Video - DVX Shoo

I *liked* their music. I liked the video. Top notch.

The post-processed NTSC interlace effect was a little too sharp for my tastes, but that's just my opinion. 99.999999% of the viewing audience out there will think you video taped a TV.

My only real criticism is that you didn't get an establishing shot of the whole band early enough in the video. Granted that the lead singer looks good; still! Establish early, then play with your shots as much as you want. Even so, great work.

Re: Flint's "Ahh" Music Video - DVX Shoo

Can someone tell me what the light effect is on the mics and the metallic objects in the video? Is that done in post or on the set with lighting and lens filters?

Thanks
