Shot some video on a sunny walk in Richmond last year, didn’t see any deer sadly. Had my dad carry my tripod most of the afternoon! Music is ‘Arrival of the Birds’ by The Cinematic Orchestra.
Shot with Canon 5DII, edited in CS5.5
I filmed a series of videos for Phillip Henry and Hannah Martin this month, to help promote their new songs for 2012 live appearances. Go to www.philliphenry.co.uk to purchase their latest CD release.
Recently described as, “Authentic, haunting roots music from a first class duo” (Seth Lakeman), Phillip Henry and Hannah Martin are two folk musicians with a fast growing following on the folk and roots scene. Having just completed two tours with Show Of Hands, they have been receiving very warm reviews of their debut album, “Singing The Bones”, including selection for a fRoots magazine compilation; and airplay on Mike Harding, who said, “I was completely knocked out by this duo…just a terrific album…absolutely great, wonderful” (4/5/11, BBC Radio Two).
We tracked the audio into my pro tools setup ( Cables up 2 flights of stairs! ) and sync’d up the mix into Adobe CS5.5. Mixed with UAD plug’ins and mastered with Izotope Ozone. I hired a second camera alongside my Canon 5DII, the video was graded with Magic Bullets Looks suite.
Filmed ‘Hieroglyph Girl’ for Otto to promote the release of his debut CD ‘Skeleton Heart’. Shot the video in a spare room at my parents house, and recorded the 5 track acoustic EP at my studio.
Amy Turk performs a Andy McKee track called ‘Into the Ocean’, filmed at my studio earlier this year. Pop over to youtube, the video has been placed on Andy’s website this week and has gone viral by the look of it!
Visited Barcelona this summer, and couldn’t resist doing a bit of filming! The video is shot at Gaudi’s ’Park Guell’, which overlooks the city. I used this footage to get to grips with Adobe CS5.5, having previously used Final Cut Pro. Also discovered I seriously need a ND filter.
Completed editing a video filmed and co-edited by the lovely Robert Darch for local band Count to Fire. Filmed on location in Devon and at the Bike Shed Theatre in Exeter earlier this year. Edited in Final Cut Pro and graded with Magic Bullet Looks.
