Martyrs out of Molehills
so this:
is a video i shot/cut for a friend’s band, bus-stop shanking. shot it like 6 weeks ago, but finally got it finished last night.
it actually came out pretty close to what i saw in my head beforehand:
the exceptions to the realization of that vision being
A) not being able to get ahold of a single tarp/sheet big enough, and having to use 3 bed sheets instead, and
B) having to deal with a drunker-than-expected, and astonishingly uncooperative, band. which of course led to fewer usable takes, fewer takes…period, and therefore VERY limited raw footage to work with.
but i gave it the old college try, and am mildly pleased with the outcome.
we finished another one too, which i will put up here as soon as i figure out this vimeo thing…

Kudos also go to Will for getting by solely on freelance photography and as a stringer for the La Jolla Light, no matter how frugal he has to be (not to mention the admiration I have for Will’s current adventure across Europe, Russia and Kazakhstan in a Nissan Micra!) And although Doug is getting bored with the regular city council meetings he has to attend, he’s getting paid better than all of us to produce videos and he still finds time for personal projects like his most recent music video.
