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

To the music critic. Fair enough. Like what you like :)

In regards to the early establishment of the band. The concept approved by the band was to NOT see them upclose or too soon in the video. But I don't disagree... typically you would see the band almost from the get go.

Glad to hear you think the majority of people out there will at least partially buy into the concept of the tv "look" on the screens.

Cheers

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

Nice. More than than nice. I feel so inadequate.

On the other hand, I got all excited about Don Brewer & Mel Schacher putting the band back together...and it turns out this isn't that Flint. ;-)

Great job! I really like it a lot.

Now a quick question. Was this shot using the anamorphic adapter, squeeze mode or did you just crop it in post?

Just curious cause whatever you did looks great.

Thanks

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

I loved the look.
 
Re: Flint's "Ahh" Music Video - DVX Shoo

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

I used the Anamorphic Lens, not the internal setting for this video.

This video is pretty good besies the fact that all the effects work is amateur and looks 60I and video like but I"m assuming thats what your going for. You should also check out the site www.digitalinterference.net cuz' they have pretty cool videos anyway.

On second thought, On watching the video a few more times, I realized I missed a fair bit. There are more layers in it than i realized. and the part in to resteraunt are very well produced.

Well I'm glad you took the time to reconsider! I have seen the work at Digital Interference... always quality work... top notch. Wish I had DVX when I was 19 or 20! Wowzers.

As for layers.. I think there was 26 layers in the widest shot with all the tvs/effects.

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

it follows the standard first rock music video rule:

the band must be in some wierd location that would not normally be a venue for a concert, playing to no audience for no reason and the lyrics have no tie in to the plot of the video.

should fit in on mtv perfectly

though they sound and look and aweful lot like christian rockers. not that that stopped switchfoot or p.o.d.
 
Re: Flint's "Ahh" Music Video - DVX Shoo

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

Christian rockers they are...

Fit for MTV is exactly what I was asked to provide so it would get aired on the major music networks and that's been successful. The band's goal accomplished. Not always about pure art when trying to market a band to get into the public's eye. Most videos on MTV are the perfect example of this. Doesn't mean staying inside a safety net makes it a bad video.

Your video link didn't work.

Your web site is very well designed and has a nice, user-friendly interface. Good job on that!
 
Re: Flint's "Ahh" Music Video - DVX Shoo

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

Try linking through going to www.mimeticonline.com/demo there's a link for the video there in the middle of a few Vanessa Carlton/Switchfoot clips I believe.

If you have Quicktime installed correctly it should work right away.

Thanks about the website!

Hey Gavin, great work. Loved the camera movement. Just wanted to know what you used to compress the video and at what settings. Thanks.
 
Re: Flint's "Ahh" Music Video - DVX Shoo

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

I used Soreson Squeeze... I can't remember the aspect ratio exactly and I set it at the highest settings I could... the actual file size was 18MB for the 4 minute video clip.

email me at gavin@mimeticonline.com and I can find out the exact specs next time I'm in front of the computer with my compression stuff on it.

Great video! Can't imagine the hours put into post on this one.!
 
Re: Flint's "Ahh" Music Video - DVX Shoo

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

Dude! That's one of the sweetest things I've seen on a DVX. Great job!
 
Re: Flint's "Ahh" Music Video - DVX Shoo

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

Thanks again for the kind words. The second version of the video is almost done being cut. I'll post it soon.
