3. What's the Use of Won'drin'? -Amanda Palmer & Verm…
3 years ago
This video was shot, in one take, on December 14th at the Great Dickens Christmas Fair in San Francisco. I had wanted to do a project with my friend, the director Jenessa Joffe, who I went to college with at Wesleyan. Then the Vermillion Lies girls showed up and it got even better.
It's set to "What's the Use of Won'drin'?" (featuring Annie Clark of St. Vincent) as it appears on "Who Killed Amanda Palmer".

Long live the punk cabaret!

oh...and thanks for having us out.
happy holidays, indeed.
The effect was established by threatening time with our wrath if it didn't chill the hell out for five minutes while we filmed the video.
But in reality,
The film was shot at a very fast speed. In order to keep the actors (and Amanda) synced, the song was played at an equally fast speed on an ipod. Just imagine Amanda singing in a mock chipmunk voice at 2x speed while we were filming and you will get the general idea.
That was a quick turn around. Good job on the final video. :)
Yeah, I have a Final Cut Pro plug-in that does that. It rocks.
:)
Thank you! It's a beautiful piece.
If I don't hear otherwise from the director of the video (or anybody else involved in the production of the video) in the next day or so, I'll post some of the images I took during the video shoot and of Amanda (with/without the lovely Vermillion Sisters). Probably as a gallery on Facebook. I am glad it all turned as well as it did under the conditions (the phrase 'herding cats' comes to mind with anything to do with our Dickens Fair).
it also totally made my crappy day fantastic!
amanda palmer, will you marry me?
Love you and your brains....xxxooo

Also, how cool that it was done in one shot?! DIY at its best.
