flyfisher Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Bloody hell - that's one tough act to follow. Excellent or what?! You should all be rightly proud of yourselves! And I'm very jealous of the cool campervan! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingrayPete1977 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Nice to see your perfect gig for the white GB Russ too, you must be the busiest bass player already, I don't know how you will find any spare dates! Wish I was good enough to pick up your deps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RhysP Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Can't really add anything more to what's been said already - fantastic job, really professional & your female singer is a total babe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

uncle psychosis Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Thats a cool video. Great work. I love the band outfits. I would agree that a shorter cut might be a good idea as well though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cloudburst Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 It's not often I'm lost for words, but this video is way beyond good. Playing is top notch. Angle shots whilst playing are great and well timed. Costumes are great. Video production - including the setup/soundcheck timer - is very professional. VW looks great and adds an extra dimension (even though, due to being an ex splittie owner, I now hate the things with a passion). Well done. You deserve a lot of success.

EBS_freak Posted July 24, 2013 Author Share Posted July 24, 2013 (edited) Thanks again - I'm glad it seems to be being well received. There was a load of work before this was even shot, obviously during the shoot and post shoot - the storyboarding, getting the venue, getting the lighting right both out and about and during the performances, getting a stage built, the van, getting the locations to film the van (e.g. off the motorway bridge, the petrol station), getting the clothes made, sourcing the poker visors and getting the shoes made to match the tuxedos... then getting the video shot itself.. getting the raw sound mastered, then there was the long task of getting the post video shoot edit done. Madness! (I'm sure I've missed stuff out of there) You have to please every member of the band - like dropping the shot where somebody was caught picking their nose etc... I think everybody comes across well in the video - especially the guitarist who is too cool for school. Personally, I'm a bit anal with regards to getting things right, so I suppose I should say thanks to Josh and Adam at FPM, for humouring me/us... for example I was sitting there agonising over the end credits and logos for ages - that was just one bit! They didn't let on but I'm sure the band sending little requests for tweaks to the edit became a bit tiresome! The good thing is, the band shared the same vision, the video guys were really enthusiastic and bought into it, infact, everybody input to it and that helped us a lot I think... plus it was great fun making, despite the many hours it took. Pete - man, you could dep for me I'm sure! I'm not sure I could dep on your double bass though! I still can't believe that they closed half the petrol station for us to film that one scene! PS - a shorter edit is in the works. Edited July 24, 2013 by EBS_freak Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obbm Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 Cracking piece of work. Somehow "excellent" doesn't go halfway to describing how good it is. Very well done. May the bookings come rolling in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funkgod Posted July 24, 2013 Share Posted July 24, 2013 (edited) Yea its a great promo vid, you have just made me revalue the way it should be done. there are so many band promo vids on a stage miming to songs with no audience. you get a real feel of the characters in your band this way, so much more personal. well done it inspires me with ideas for one for my band. the first thing that got me was i really thought that was one of my old dub's, i had to check the reg, nice.
