Rosemary's Videos update


A lot's been done on my project with Rosie over the last few weeks of term. I've edited 5 of the 8 songs from her performance, all of which can be found at my Vimeo channel. We've also finished recording her 5-track EP and (with Grant on-hand filming) we're now commencing editing videos for 4 of the tracks. I've managed to do a rough-mix of all the songs, and then a rough-cut of one of the videos before I had to pack up all my things for the summer, Rosie's given me notes on the tracks and once I'm set up back in Chichester I'll begin working on finishing them again.

I've never recorded or mixed anything this dense, with as many layers of tracks and instrumentation so it's a learning curve for me in the mixing process, making sure it's clear and smooth and uncluttered - will be interesting, and hopefully won't take too long.

Here's the first and last song from the performance filmed on two Canon 550D's and one 60D, with Grant and (the much sought-after) John Howe, and unfortunately the audio is just from one of the cameras as the audio from the sound-desk was no good.

Editing these was useful, because it allowed me to work with Adobe Premiere CS5's multi-camera editing mode for the first time, which simulates a live vision-mixer.

Rosie's band will be referred to as Volander, from now on.
