I think the video was great. Shame that you're across the pond from me. I'd have you shoot one for my band.

The colours were really good... but the camera and editing are moving waaaay too much. I had to stop watching it, due to was getting a bit of vertigo from too-fast pans and quick-edit cuts. But... for a FIRST attempt.... you guys did great. Thanks for sharing your creation.

Pretty fine indeed, especially for a do it yourself production. You did good.

Cheers indeedy! The cuts are very quick i agree, i think that was to do with a lack of footage and shots so it was lots of small bits. We already have plans for another shoot in about 6 weeks for my fave of our songs: 'Dont listen to the band' (have a wee listen, its on the myspace, i LOVE it)
and hopefully we'll have more than one day to shoot this time! Its quite the bug this doing videos malarky!!

Really hope you lot enjoy it, please be polite!

SO HERES THE LINK!

hope this is the right forum section!

I did a band video a couple of years ago with Sony Vegas software, however we taped with digital video, with Sony handicams and found the video to be a bit grainy.

What software did you use, and what cameras took the footage?

The video editing was really very artsy...and very good!
Bass rocked too

i know the camera was a sony, tbh beyond that its all greek to me!, might be worth dropping Trev a line at the myspace or by email loungeflyinfo@gmail.com and im sure he could go into crazy details for you as he shot most of it and edited all of it!, bless him! Or if you really wanted to make his day ask in a comment on youtube so he waffle about tech stuff like i did on there lol!

Sounded Great. Well Done.

But, IMHO
I found it too hard to watch. I was getting dizzy or something.
Slow down, let us see what you've all got.........

Dude, if I didn't know any better I'd say that was a pro production. But it looks great for a first video. As good as most stuff you see in the charts and on these millions of music channels on Sky and Cable. Great meaty bass playing too... and your singer is a babe

Thanks loads guys, seriously i am so chuffed with the response!!! especially as the word of fellow bass players is CLEARLY the proper business lol!! If any of you could find your way to sharing the video or myspazz with friends by any means id be so greatful, this is my last shot at an originals band and were doing the whole shebang ourselves, so if anyone knows any ways to point people at us then Please please go ahead!, the more hits we get and views we get, the more people will take us seriously and the greater the chances of me A) getting paid to play bass :-) and B) getting that dream bass!! (Sei flamboyant 4!) ;-)

Did you use your hartke vxl, LMII and P bass on the recording? If so, that pretty much sells me on that setup.

cheers, i did just that bass.....hartke....cs3....ns2....amp di'd to the desk, no speakers, thats on all the songs on the myspace, the distorted ones like this track i just hit the drive channel on the hartke, other than that its the preshape on all the time at about 1 o clock and a passive fender jazz bass, oh and wizard pickups. I just used the P bass for the video. In the studio its a 2008 mij fender jazz 75ri with a wizard pickup in the neck.
oh LM2 is pretty much flat just a touch of boost on low mids and hig, and the VPF at 9 o clockish, no higher, VLE off.

Very, very very good! Kinda old school, without alot of silly frills and stupid dance moves. Reminds me of "Jump" by Van Halen. A performance video. With all the c**p out there, it's comforting to know that good ol' rock & roll still lives. Also, loved the kiss on the screen at the very beginning! Good effect!

I say,thanks awfully old bean ;-)

The failed attempts at the lipstick and the writing on screen were pretty funny the glass was gaffa taped into the rack from a yamaha electronic drumkit. But it broke so suze only had a very small bit left to kiss VERY gently lol. The lipstick snapped when she was writing too it was quite a fun day tbh. In the middle eight bit in the red dress she's standing on my markbass 102p cause she was too short and ended up doing a teeter-topple off the back in her heels :-D She balanced on the edge for a good few seconds!

I liked the editing, though the black/white portion was a bit weird for me (but that's just me) I liked the vid, the tune, and your bass work.
