Artist : Ember
Song : Blind
Album: Under Pressure
Director: Raymond J. Schlogel
Production Company : Underground Planet

Recently I ran a special here in Austin for ten local bands to get a way cheap HD music video. This is the first band that took me up on it.

Not to much to say about this one conceptually, because of the low budget we just needed to have a cool location that would lend itself to the mood/tone of the song. Shot with a Sony EX1 w/Letus35 Extreme, edited in Sony Vegas, and color corrected with Magic Bullet. One night of filming, three days or so of editing, and ""Voilà!", ya got yourself a music video!

    Thanks Kenneth, appreciate the compliments. Don't mind saying I kinda like this vid too. =)

    The song was a great place to start for sure and the band really stepped upta the plate and gave it all each and every take. Huge props to them.

    Appreciate it man, thanks for taking the time to look and post.
  • Wayne Avanson plus 1 year ago
    I just wish more of your stuff was available for download like other people's vids as I like to watch things over and over (being new to it all) as a way of learning and appreciating the differences between cams and lighting etc. Hey ho.

    Great work though! Love the coffee one too. Speaking of which, Better go get one now!

    Thanks Wayne. I wish I felt more comfortable allowing my stuff to be downloaded but, even though there are ways to for someone to capture it if they really wanted, I'm a little paranoid about just opening the gate to the full rez source files. =(
  • Wayne Avanson plus 1 year ago
    I see. No problem, I just find it easier to study them when they;re on the hard drive. I've got lots to be re-watching as it is I guess, Bloom, Dempsey, Guilmette and Fredericks for example. I'll keep checking back your stuff though, it's ace!
    Best

    seeing that I have 3 music videos coming up

    The lighting is absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!!

    Just wish there was more to this than the band's performance.
  • Underground Planet plus 1 year ago
    Thanks Travis, and I'm sure if you wanted to sponsor the bands next video so that they have more of a budget on their next they'll be more than happy to take it. =)
