"New City Anthem" Music Video

[Tough_Duck]

Hello to all. Here is my first music video both for directing and shooting. I've shot documentaries in the past and have directed one but this was my first experience in the world of music. All I can say is that it was an AWESOME experience that I will continue on with.

Here's the breakdown on the specs:

Canon 5D Mark ll
Canon EF 24-70mm
Redrock eyeSpy rig
Cinevate Ballare Dolly
3 Divas
1 Arri 650
1 Director/DOP
1 Producer/Editor
1 friend willing to move some stands for free (2 out of the 5 days, ha, ha!)


Here's the link to the youtube version (I'm not sure what's up with the compression):

Really impressed! You had very little equipment and only one lense! Yet you did a great job. Pretty inspiring.

Thanks SpencerS

That looked great.

That looked great.

I like the clean images, sometimes we tend to over effect in my opinion the footage. Hard to believe that was your 1st music video. great job!

Thanks ccastro! Funny you should mention that because we had a second version of the video that was heavily effected. When comparing them side by side the clean footage just seemed to flow better.
