Last night...was a very long night. Around eight or so, Tomec comes in and tells us that if anyone from our group would like to help shoot a music video with a guy from Ukraine that we were more than welcome to help. We were supposed to meet in the studio at 10:00...we ended up meeting at 10:30. This was only the first of many long delays...
We get all the gear from the studio we needed...cameras, tapes, batteries, the screen for the background, ya know, the basic video equipment.
We get over to the chapel, begin the set-up...which takes about an hour and a half...should have taken twenty minutes. We keep changing the design, location of the projector, camera dolly's...all kinds of stuff.
We finally get a decision on how we want the lights, we add the smoke and the intelligent light for affect, the video in the background is rolling...so we begin...at about 1:00 a.m.
We go through the song twice, Bob running the center camera, and I was running the "crazy" camera, as Tomec called it.
We do the song a few more times, then Tomec says..."One more time, I promise!" This was the first of many false promises! We ended up doing the song five more times!
AHHHHHHHHHH! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
In the end, we got the video and clean-up wrapped up at about 2:15 a.m. Tomec is editing the video as we speak. Hope it turns out well.
Here are a few pics Ayla snapped during the shoot! Awesome shots!
Enjoy the stories...
