Some quick comments needed.

Probably get slapped for this by the mods (sorry). Just need some quick comments on a one song cut from a live show. Sound/feel/angles etc. Its a rough cut.

Two camera shoot. Just a promo show in the tighest of spaces ever created by man. I had 30cms to work the B in front of the band. The A cam is as wide as it could possibly go in the small space. Crap lighting, I fiddled with it best I could and still couldnt manage solid exposure on the keyboard player and drummer.

the sound quality is good and i like your closeup shots of the band.

my two criticisms are that...
1) it's not wide enough. but there was nothing you could do about that because of the cramped quarters.
2) it's distracting when you move in front of the A cam. everything else is dark, but the image on the camera is bright. after the first pass by you cut to the B cam. this makes it obvious that you're the person who just walked in front of the camera.

Points noted and was aware. But in this crawl space it was impossible on both points.

that's what i figured. it sucks when the location limits what you can do.
