It Gets Better

Get the song: blumpy.org/misc/It%20Gets%20Better.mp3
This was a lo-fi experiment I wanted to do. We shot three songs; this was the third take. Reggie usually warms up; the third song is almost always the most creative and otherwise "best".
The next one might be with three HD cameras. Three is enough angles if we want to boil down the idea.
When I first envisioned the editing, I thought it would cut regularly on the beat. When I got into Final Cut and played with that, it felt wrong. It was as if the editing were calling attention to itself. It felt forced. So instead I went for a more organic feel. I was trying to make the editing subtle so that it disappeared.
I really like how the end has me, Zach, and Jonathan in the background. I like that I don't appear until the end - that was not intentional.
